NOTICE TO CORRESPONDENTS

W.S., Taihapc.—We arc very anxious that our correspondence columns should be utilised for any helpful purpose, but they have been closed to further discussion of Sunday pictures because writers did nothing but burden us with discourteous personal references, or try to involve us in a religious controversy, presumably forgetting to write a tangible argument one way or the other on the subject they were supposed to be dealing with. Your long (fissertation shows no cause why we should reopen them. In fact your parting shot is fatal to which ever side you intended to associate yourself with. You say, "The natural man will have what he likes." Doesn't the law sometimes restrain such natural men When opposing wills of natural men come into conflict you do not suggest what happens, but it may be assumed that the most dangerous, most useless, and most stupid have to give way. We have not the space to give, that would be required for religious, or prohibition controversies, therefore they must be banned.
