STUDENTS IN LODGINGS
(To the Editor.)
Sir, —Would you kindly allow me a small space in' your valuable paper to air a grievance. I come in contact with numbers of students without homes in Wellington and hear many complaints of the high prices they have to pay for board and lodgings. Girls can get a room and cook their own meals, but boys have to put up with anything, and if they are not lucky sleep three in a room: It is time the Government did something. Kelburn is flooded out with students at the training college. One way to stop private people ■ from putting up their prices and, cramming, three in a room would be t6 ; make all private houses taking more than one boarder register as boarding-house keepers. Landlords could also help by limiting occupants in a house.—l am, etc., N '' v
A. HOWARD.
