REST RESORT AND DOMAIN.

If has been time and again in swaying^public opinion, j but I think the latest j shown in Otaki, is “ llf aS g \Tnl o “Otaki Mail” a thon vmile Resort project wa* *’*»*”; a. while after the Ratepayers' Assocpk tion woke up and called a meeting- and new the Best Resort Committee have \ come to life and are holding a rmblx [ meeting, bringing forward fresh t,.0-! ! nosals, ere.. Is it because . snaaer movement is started that they "'**■ ‘ 0

. become ae energetic after about three * } years sibep? S suppose they have just i found out that the propped band toI tufida wotild be a failure. crowded o three sldee with buildings sf- a small I space, or ds they wish tv add vest room, land cenotaph to it? 1 am afraid then would be Tie room left for the public to rest while listening to the hand. Why not- leave it as a rct-i resort with a few seats, shrubs and conveniences and help the improvement to tha do main, adding memorial gate? and band rotunda, which would be far better from a public standpoint, and where ' the people of Otaki could enjoy their , ease on holiday or Sunday and cot be crowded into a small space in town! We must anticipate the growth of the population; say in ten years ’ time. Our main street with two and three- , storied shops, ete.—where would our ; rest resort be then.? Apol*gi*iatf i° r trespassing so much on your space. -I am. etc., j EACH FOR ALL. ;
