WOMEN AND WORK.
To the Editor.
Sir —ln an article, a couple of (lavs ago, I learnt that Captain Walker has fortified himself with a book on the above subject. Now, to my way of thinking, he has become an expert on such matters, and then, having the Military Service Board at his back, he should be in a position to recr " lt "bon ton" ladies from the towns to take the place of the us-a-day men. He could 'soon teach them from his book; instead, he is always harping on the sisters ot men who have to go. Ninety per cent, of these ladies work from 12 to 16 hours a day now, and are they not to ge any help from the idle women about towns, who have their servants to wait on them? If three women were made to turn out, a lot of the farms would not be going into alien hands. 1 etc '' S. A. CAMPBELL, Uruti.
