REDUCTION IN LEVIES
(From Our Own Correspondent)
Boards' Contributions To Park Island Committee
WAIPUKURAU, This Day. Consideration of the ensuing year's estimates of the Park Island Joint Cora"mittee led the chairman of the Waipawa Hospital Board, Mr W. H. Bathbone, to mahe praiseworthy comment yesterday upon the manner in which the lovies of contributing hospital boards had been redueed during the past few years. "There are only twn things in this Dominion that have been redueed during the past few years," he said, "One is the price of electricity and the other the levies of hospital boards to the Park Island Joint Committee. Before the destrnction of the Park Island Old People 's Home, the total levy was £4000. To-day it was down to £900. "It shows that the system of boarding out our old people is more economic, more sound and more satisfactory than it has been for many years."
