This item notes child contributors and column byline details in the Cairns Post Home Circle. It lists young writers or youth participants credited as contributors within the column. The notice highlights playful engagement and editorial notes about range and voices.
A jumble of dialogue and notes from a personal page, including stray lines about a toe, iodine, a wall, and a reader’s collection. Mentions of names like Mire, Mr Peapod, The Grapes, The Woman, Edna Wright, and Mary. Ends with birthday wishes and a small-poetry fragment.
A garbled OCR of verse exults dreamlike images and mixed phrases. The muddled text includes lines about a poet and a sunny face, references to children and sleep, and stray phrases like Sonic and Heat by Australian Flapper. The fragmentary lines hint at a stage of morning coffee or clumsy transcription.
A garbled kitchen note outlines curry making with steps on meat preparation and cooking times. It mentions dry curry, onion use, lime, garlic, curry powder, and cream. The text includes stray phrases about meat doneness and serving with lemon and accompaniments, but lacks coherent structure.
Fashion notes emphasize color rules for women and men hosiery. Smart women drop Meah stockings for day wear with evening use reserved for that shade. Men favor Castor gray or brown tones to match costumes. For summer, head hose stay in lighter outfits while frocks feature wine mulberry or Parma hues with red accents.
Readers are invited to write a short letter explaining how they help their mother each day. Letters must be 30 to 100 words, include the writer’s real name and pen name, and be signed. The competition closes in May. Certificates will be awarded to winners and selected entries may be published.
