The censor’s number is .1(>(>, if you earc to him a motherly to “Dear' l Motherl must tell you the bad. luck I had when I received your ln«t letter. The address was all in vour hand writing, but the letter inside was for someone else. The censor has most likely put my letter mto his envelope and this chaps into mine. It was bad luck, because there is no indication as to Who to send it on to. What is the good of us writing to our sons, when someone else receives their” letters? I feel positively sick when I think of such gross stupidity existing in one of the .most important of the Government departments.—l am, etc., DISGUSTED. Wellington, July 27.
