According to the dailies, remarks the Observer, a. Gisborne schoolmaster is complaining that ho can’t get girls to attend the cookery classes at the technical school. Pity they haven’t got the handsome George George or the aristocratic John Payne at Gisborne, then the technical school building would be all too small to accommodate the multitude of girls who would rush to see the attraction.
