Readers' Pictures

With this issue we start what we hope will be a regular feature of "Photo News"—a page of pictures from our readers.

Don't hesitate to send in that snap which you think will interest your fellow readers. If it is postcard or larger, the print will do. If it is smaller than postcard, we would like the negative as well so that we can enlarge a print from it.

Just post your print to "Editor, "Photo News", 282 Aberdeen Road, Gisborne".

First prize each issue gets a 12-issue subscription to "Photo News" FREE, post paid.

First Prize this month goes to Mrs Arch Waugh, 12 Dominion Road, Gisborne for this picture of her little boy, Glenton David, having "His First Lesson" on the family piano. Requires concentration, this piano-playing game, thinks. Glenton as he fingers those nice white keys. Shouldn't be long now before we hear some tiny tot music issuing from the Waugh home. A twelve-issue subscription has been entered in Mrs Waughs name.

This is Ngatapa Hill, where Te Kooti had his fortified pa during the Maori War. According to Miss E. Craw, Mangapapa, who sent in this snap, it shows the north end of the hill, where Te Kooti escaped from an attack coming up the south side. Marks of trenches may still be seen on the Hill.
