THE TOWN HALL.

“Citizens Excessively Lax, Says Correspondent.. (To the Editor.) Sir, —May I be allowed to express the hope that your well merited rebuke with regard to the appalling conditions of Stratford’s Town Hall will bear some fruit in awakening the citizens of the town to a realisation of their excessive laxity in this direction. I have lived, at one time or another, in a great number of New Zealand towns, but I do not think I have ever seen a worse-provided town in this respect than Stratford. I think, however, that you are more than fair to the borough authorities in your criticism. You are prepared to concede to them that the provision of a better hall would not be justified in terms ot cold economics. I think a little reflection will show that this can by no means be taken for granted. To endeavour to calculate the revenue that would accrtie from a hall meeting all reasonable requirements ot the community on the basis of% that which is obtained for the existing dilapidated barn is obviously not a logical conclusion.—l am, etc., DRAMA LOVER.
