Why should public bodies spend rates in advertising on any other principle than that of proportionate value received ? Let the public seie to this. ■ ■ ' i ’ ; ; * .Subscribers’, List open to ; inspections at the Mail office. ; , Bali Programmes are Printed at the Mail Office, Patea, with neatness, taste, and promptness.
