A Word for the "Herald"
C. V.
FANNIN.
(To the Editor.Sir, — My first thoughts on awakening to a day bereft for the first time in fifty years of a morning "Herald," were bitter ones. Does Mr Savage in his crusade to help the workings man ever think of that old text for the guidance of men's lives: "Remove not thy neighbour's landmark", which with little imagination can be applied to the disappearance of time-honouiyl customs: For what? Tbat the working classes may have more leisui'e, and easier lives I would remind the Labour members and their clique, that it is good for man, to bear the yoke in bis youth. Ask Mr Charlea Price and his confreres, were there no compensations for the late nights and early hours spent for the hundreds of patrons of their work? The writer has borne with resignation the risen land tax, the rising rates, and failing interest, but morning and no "Herald" is the last straw. I cannot close without expressing gratitude to the proprietors past and present for the "Hawke's JBay Herald" and its fair and broad-minded dealing with public affairs.- — Yours truly,
Napier, Jan 18, 1937. ^
