BEAUTIFYING THE CITY
A SUGGESTION. Sir, —Being a believer in tho beautification of our somewhat sombre Empire City, and now that Oriental Bay is having a magnificent parade, might I make a suggestion through your valuable columns that some of our leading citizens and seedsmen further add to its beauty by donating seats and trees for the same like other leading citizens do in other principal towns of the Dominion. Surely we have some here who at least could do the same, as Oriental Bay is one of the first places a visitor's eyes strike when entering up the harbour. The soil i s already being deposited there as filling in, so it would only mean the giving and planting of trees and _ shrubs and then it would comparo with any other marine parades in other Continental cities. Thanking you, sir, in anticipation,—l am, etc., EX DONO.
