SPORT AND BEER.
A SERIOUS MATTER.
A correspondent signing himself "Wholesome Sport" writes as follows to the Wnirarapa Age:— "I have been no less surprised than disgusted to see young men returning to Masiterton from the' other <end of the Valley, after a day's athletic sport, in a visible* state of in/toxiaation. Tliis is a very serious thing for the morals of the rising / tion of Masterton. If beer is necessary to the proper conduct of sport, the isooner either the sport or the beer are done away with, the beftter. It is not an edifying spectacle to see mere boys under the influence of - drink.'-'
