Tn paying a visit to various suburbs of Wellington during the Easter rolidays, it was very remarkable (and doubtless a “sign of the times”) the number of people who are to be seen doing their own work in directions that used to be always the subject of hired help. Any number of pretty cottages, for instance, are being painted by the householder, with perhaps a friend to help, members of the family, and many quaint and amateurish scaffoldings are to be seen. In other directions the concreting of steps or paths is being done, others are doing “chores” of carpentry, while the gardeners are legion, and a great number of suburban gardens will have had their borders set in order for the winter during the Easter period. The theory, a very ob|jectional one as a rule, that good sometimes comes out of evil, is exemplified in all this activity, for the price of labour places it beyond any but very well-lined pockets, and people perforce, must make a sensible effort for theni•selves, and this undoubtedly makes for health and strength character. Not to be beaten by circumstances is a fine sentiment, and the times seem to be developing this on good line®, making many go back to the times of the pioneer settlers, when “everybody did everything.”
