CORRESPONDENCE.
[To the Editor.] Sir,— The best thanks of all agnostics in Foxton are due to the management of the local gas orks. A few more samples of their work, as evidenced last Sunday night, will be exceedingly able exponents of the folly of church-going, and it is to be hoped that no threat of compulsory acquisition bv the Council will influence them in their self-chosen task of emptying the churches, even if it be only for the purpose of compelling the people to walk around and inspect the magnificent building by gas-light (I nearly vyrote “farthing rush-lights,”but on second thoughts remembered that the same management was responsible), and as one consistently opposed to church-going, am not going to growl about unlighted streets, as long as the churches are emptied.—Yours etc., Dark Corner. Foxton, Sept. 15, 1909.
