LIVELY TUNES FOR THE COUNTRY.
Sir-I do wish one of the stations would give half an hour for Hill-Billy tunes and Hawaiian music about five or six o’clock in the evening. I notice that the serials are all on about the same time. I think they should be in rotation so that listeners would have a chance to hear more than one play. More of the old-time songs would also be appreciated -something lively to help lighten the morning’s tasks. We in the country enjoy some lively tunes. We are not tired of hearing "Roll Out the Barrel," " Wish Me Luck as You Wave Me Goodbye," "Run Rabbit, Run," etc. But I have written such a lot of wants they look like asking for the moon.WI REPA FAMILY (Opotiki).
