FOREWORD.
(By
D. 5.0., 0.8. E.)
When I was asked what I thought of the idea of produc ing an OHAKEA Magazine my reactions were: “Yes, provided it is a good one.” I have seen many Station periodicals and some of them have been poor stuff and only of interest to the contributors. This, I believe, is different. You, the readers, are the judges.
A Station periodical can be of inestimable value principally because it can ginger up that most essential quality of efficiency, a Station spirit or esprit de corps which makes us all proud of serving in “a good show” as opposed to being a little ashamed of being members of a weak or badly-discip-lined Station.
Our job being what it is, we at Ohakea have a fairly large floating population of people who leave us to go to all the various corners of the earth where New Zealanders are doing their stuff.
To all Ohakeans, wherever you may be, we hope that our first effort in publication will remind you of your old Station, and I for one wish you all the best and hope that you will find time to look us up upon your return, or before that, send us a contribution for our next number.
