First Impressions.
“One thing that first impressed me about Auckland was a lack of paint,” remarked Mr. Andrew Bell, who is visiting New Zealand in the course of a world tour, when he was interviewed. “My early impression of Auckland was distinctly unfavourable. Some buildings I saw had a dreadfully shabby appearance—one or two of the shops looked threadbare.” Then he added with a smile: ‘But that was an early impression. Travelling further afield in the city, I was much more j favourably impressed. Many of the i shops in Queen Street would be a {credit to any city in the world.”
