CHAT 



As several of our friends seem to think that 

 on account of distance it is hardly fair to oiier 

 prizes for first lists, we will now make the 

 awards in such a manner as to give all an eLiual 

 chance. 



The name and address on one of the puzzles 

 this month were left out on jjurpose : ^"Jii 

 a chance to guess the author, and a ■ " "ill 

 be awarded among those guessing the correct 

 one. 



One solver writes. "Tliis month I ' in 



solving all the answers, and thougi:: 1 ' v.M 

 send them in. Have solved some of them each 

 month, but have never sent them in." X:v.-, Tve 

 are just as pleased to get a partial lis: as a 

 complete one. and hope all our friends vrill send 

 them ill, even if they solve only one pnzzle. Let 

 us have a big list this month.
