The Oojah Annual. By Flo Lancaster. 1925

My Very Dears,
Here we are again with our OOJAH ANNUAL, full of pictures and stories and jokes. My little friends have worked hard to make this book for you, and they were all very anxious to get their own special wishes in.
They made so much noise calling them out that I was nearly deaf. Jerrywangle said: “Christmas is coming, it is. Wish them a Merry Christmas,” and Baby Binky wanted me to put in: “A Happy New Year.” My Don called out: “Wish them a Pleasant Easter,” and Snooker added: “Don’t forget to wish them a Good Old Whitsuntide.” Sissy Lion said: “I hope they will have a nice August Bank Holiday, with a month at the seaside and no home lessons,” and Laddy Lion chimed in: “Wish them a Jolly Guy Fawkes’ Day, with plenty of fun and fireworks.”
How is your poor old uncle to get all those wishes in? The only thing I can do is join them all together and wish you a very happy time all the year round, but especially on holidays and half-holidays.
I like to get letters from you, so be sure you write and tell me what you like best in your OOJAH ANNUAL. Master Jerry is in it this year, and you know what he is for mischief. He doesn’t seem to get any better, no matter what I do.
Never mind, we all like a bit of fun sometimes, don’t we?
As Jerrywangle sings:
“Let’s be merry and bright and gay
From now till next OOJAH ANNUAL DAY.”
I mustn’t keep you any longer, for I’m sure you are longing to see what is inside this splendid book with the beautiful coloured covers. I hope you will enjoy every page.
With love from us all,
UNCLE OOJAH.
