JUST THOUGHTS
FAILURE TO GET INTO LINE Any visitor from England was immediately struck with the failure of New Zealanders to get into line, said Mr W. J. Jordan,, High Commissioner for New Zealand in London speaking at the Onehunga Primary School break-up. “Women and children last” should be the notice displayed in trams and buses, he felt. Wherever there was a demand for anything, the usual courtesy of New Zealanders appeared to be discarded and. a mad .mob-like rush descended on the purveyor. This was in distinct contrast to English methods, wlier even in buying the morning paper, if one found a couple of people ahead of him, he promptly fell into line. If you know the remedy for this state of affairs,, put it into practice as a principle of your way of living./,
