All communications to be written in ink and on oue side of the paper only. Addresscd Box 310, Invercargill. CHATS WITH THE EDITCB To his Worship the Ma-yor and Connciliors, Invercargill. Gentlemen : We greatly appreciate the good work you have done in furthering the interests of the town. Your Loan proposals although the "Widow's mite" are a step in the right direction. But with all these good thmgs, you like most people, have your sins and omissions. Do you remember, that after the Boer War, Regimental Colours were presented to the Council for the purpose of adorning their Sanetum Santorum. They were to be hung in an appropriate place and he an inspiration to the younger generation, and remembrance to those who played their part. Now, Gentlemen, is it fitting that they shculd lie "where rust and moth doth ' corrupt," even if there is no temptation for thieves to break tlirough and steal.
