"SIGHING FOR A SITE"
Sir,— Oh! for a site that is adequate Right-<Jn the builds eye A sure Civic shot An up to date G.P.O. Right .on the spot Of commercial convergahce To stay vain contention And ease the high tension Of brains now obsessed. With commercial extension , Old Whaka-ites know That the scene of debate" Once boasted fat flounder As broad as a plate The years have wrought changes Sure old Father Time Will build us a new P.O. Where Big Ben will chime. To the tune of loud cheering And the prospective laughter Of liople fondiy dreaming Of Whalcatane's here-after./ H. SERGANT.
