Millars Pride

GREEN ISLAISD, Lindsay Millar will tell you, is rot to be confused with Burnside. For, whilst Burnside has an undeniable aroma jwhich is the result of manufacturing Activities in its midst, there is naught save the "cheep- cheep" of happy birdi<s to disturb the oldworld peace cf Green Island, that charming hamlTt some six miles due south of Dunedti. Lindsay Millar thinks more of a kind word for his bejoved Green Island than he does of reams of praise directed at himself. / He has, in uie interests of the district he knows so well, served as mayor and councillor Green Island owes more than a little to Lindsay Millar's ability to get Ihings done. In lighter homents — and when he considers Greta Island can spare him for a fleeting iour or two — he uses his flue tenor voi^e with considerable effect in th<§> C™. and W.A. choir, Dunedin. He certainly can sing. Now, to sp6il it all, we must place on record thai he is a bowler — and a. good one at jhat. So keen is he on heaving heavy, black spheres over an innocent green that he lias been known . to finish a game with the aid of a box of matches. j
