THE BATHS

TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —Through the medium of you? widely circulated paper allow me space to express an humble opinion re the method now in vogue of .working same :—I am a working miner—lst this be understood not a tourist, and Sunday is my only day of rest, and a day that we, as miners, use to enjoy by taking a run to To Aroha. Now-fi* 1 days this has to be knocked on the head, as without a bath and refresher the journey is too far, why not keep these baths open all day as of old, and let the working man from the other side of the hill enjoy a little journey and a good bath? Are the bathl Jy closed to give the attendants a holt* /- day ? or is it to let them attend church! I think, with a double staff, they ought to be able to run all day Suqday and let the miner have his weekly dip—Trusting a more able pen than mine will take this all important sub* ject up.—l am etc, A Miner.

(To the Editor). Sir, —I would like to draw the attention of the Police, the Inspector of V Nuisances, or the Dog Tax Collector, ■ or in fact any official capable of acting, M to the danger to horsemen caused by J mongrels rushing out and at the heels of horses. Tw<w °j* three flj times I have been nearly thrftfrn *s .» result of the actions of these curs, and if something is not done very soon to improve matters in this direction, I will be compelled in order to save my- £ self—to render such first aid te these 4 dogs as will wipe them for ever off the street. Thanking you in anticipation, • | —lam, etc., Self Preservation. * ;
