Thoughts For The Times
Tin; Old Bad Timks. He remembered the time when lambs sold at half a, crown in Southland, and sheep at five shillings. At that time they could] not sell bullocks at all,, and' if a- horse happened to fall in a ditch in Dee Street it was not worth removing. Wheat brought half a crown a bushel and oats tenpence. But the men ‘and women of that time did not lie down to it. They worked hard and they came through all right. The people of (this generation would have to do the same. They would have to work harder than they had worked in the past.—Sir Joseph Ward.
