Thoughts For The Times
Aim Woiuc and No Play. Little progress can be made while the taxation here remains the heaviest in the world. A consumptive patient cannot he assisted towards health by taking half a- pint of blood from him every week, and that is what Mr Massey is doing to New Zealand.- Likewise we must all learn to work, economical success can never be attained while people are brought up in the belief that holidays, and particularly holidays on full pay, should occur about once in every week. The time has gone by when as primitive communities everyone kept holiday the day a; cow calved, and it is time that work in earnest, not play, should be regarded as necessary if the country is get out of the bog .which it is now in.—Mercantile Gezette.
