“MAN WOULD STAGNATE”
ENGLISHMAN’S OPINION OF NORFOLK ISLAND “A map would mentally stagnate if he lived on Norfolk Island. It’s no place for a young fellow.” This is the opinion of Mr TI. J. Collins, who returned to , Auckland from Norfolk Island this morning, by the Maui Pomare. Mr. Collins is a young Englishman who has been travelling around the South Seas, Australia and New Zealand with the object of taking up land. “There is not enough opportunity on Norfolk and land is too dear. There may be a good living but there is no fortune,” he concluded. Mr. Collins, who has spent three months on the island, which he likes as a holiday resort, will return to England before going to the Malay States, where he will Investigate the possibilities of the rubber industry.
