Traces of Civilisation
One of the least lcnown and most remote of the West Coast Sounds is Big Bay, says the Southland "Times." Yet traces of civilisation find their way to these spots. A Southland prospecting party picked up on the' beach there an intact electric light bulb. It may have come from the cabin of a passing ship, or it may have drifted round from some mor'e populated shore, but it certainly gavfe the pfospectors a ifiomentary longing for a cosy bed and .electric light in place of hard bunks ajid an orchestra of mosquitoes.
