most attractive resort. There was a chain reserve along the Foreshore and it would be possible, if funds were available, to construct a drive from the boatshed to the Majko Mako road. This could eventually be continued as far as the Ueadh' road. If that objective was realised he believed Levin would have easily rieccissible. a scenic possession perhaps u-nrivalii'd in the .Dominion and one that would attract and delight visitors from other parts.
