CORRESPONDENCE.
THE "DROPPING" PROFESSION.
(To the- Editor.) Sir.—From the reports of addresses given by Mr J. T. M. Hornsby, 1 ghoul 3 judge thajj "dropping" is a TudraiiVd buwihess in Masterton. 1 have been engaged at hard graft for some time, but, as the winter is coming on, I would much prefer a congenial occupation in town. Mr Hornsby has told us how some of the "droppers' transact their business, and make money out of it. Would it be possible to have a class instituted at the Technical School for the instruction of those who desire to enter the profession? I can assure tile director that if he will take the jttiatter up he will soon have one of €f the strongest classes in his 6 chool. —I *m r etc., NEW CHUM. Maaterton, April 9, 1913. A CANTEEN AT CAMP. (To the Editor.) Sir, —I am informed that, in the orders issued by Colonel Tate, it is provided that there will be a canteen at the Oiringi camp. I want to know; as the parent of one of the Territorials, why a canteen is thought necessary. I personally object to my &on going into a camp where liquor is to be procured.—l am, etc., PARENT. Masterton, April 9, 1913.
