THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
Gun Gnomons Sounds. So this is Milford Sound—Milford Sound, tremendous, inspiring and sublime. Small wonder that its fame extends all over the civilised globe, and every year tourists set out from the great cities of London. New York, Paris and Sydney to behold its glories. Halting phrases from a casual pen can hut give the haziest fragment of an idea of the “Finest AYalk in the AVorld” and of the grand and mysterious fiord it leads to. This reference, therefore, can best end with a plaiin. sober .statement ,Written far from lakes and waterfalls and mountains:— Let every New Zealander make up his mind to set foot at least once oil the path that leads beside the Clinton River and on over the. Al’Kinnon Pass. It is his own country by rightful inheritance, such a country of running streams, singing birds and shining hush as poets dream of and seldom see. —A'isiting New Zealander.
