OFF TO ANOTHER PLAGE?
|| A DRAWLING tone of voice, a penchant for sneering at the || II Jl\ Opposition and a somewhat sepulchral face have not been \\ 11 the only features that have kept the vHon. W. Nosworthy §| 11 rather prominent m New Zealand politics. fl || Giving offbct to tho principle of bestowing praise where H 11 praise is due, it has to be conceded that Nosworthy has given 11 If most devoted service to the Reform hack since he decided to 11 || straddle it m preference to the shaky Liberal quadruped which 11 || he once rode. f§ || And now that the Electoral Boundaries Commission has cut ll || up the political pie without a slice for W.N., it is interesting to II If know that he will not bo seeking it this year. II || Facetiously dubbed "Minister of Graveyards," "Officer-in- i| |l charge of Gramophone Records," the "Political Undertaker," "and || If other gloomy appellations, Nosworthy has, nevertheless, weath- fl = | ered the storm against his critics and no doubt will be given a |1 H plum to oonsume m "another place." |i II Loyalty, even without the brain-power that goes to the l| || making of a genius, really must pay m the long run. || |1 •■ Long live Nosworthy after a hectic round m the arena of || ll oral stoush! He is entitled to a ring-side seat now, surely. || 8 PiiMiimiiii iiiiiMMiiiiMiiiiiiiiLiiiinuHiijiiiiiiiiiiiliii<liiinuMitiiiiiiiniMiiiniuiliiliiuiiiilliiulilMUMiitiu>iiHinititi>ctaitHj>uui,uMi,H,i>iri!i.Ntuuiii,j>ti>iJjijjiijiiii,i>MJjiijii,jjjj>iniiiirj,g,i,j,ii,i,= = **;HimiMiuiuimHiuiimimHimimMmMmHHimmumMMMmmiiMuimmmmmMMimu»MiiMmmnnuimmMmimimmiimmmlmh^ =
