A CITY OF NOISE.

DOGS AND OTHER NUISANCES. (To the Editor.) I am surrounded 'by barking dot's vW owners are absolutely indifferent to "the feel ings of their neighbours, and take no stews whatever to keep the dear little things quiet At all hours of the day and night the chief pastime of these nuisances is barking, makin* sleep impossible for those in the vicinity in the older cities, of Europe the noise nuisance Ls being dealt with, but in Auckland no' stepso far have been taken to deal with noisy motor bikes, the incessant barking of useless dogs, the unnecessary use of motor horns at certain hours, andHhe clanging and ban<nn 2 of milk cans in the small hours of the mornin» by those who loudly and cheerfully greet one another across the street, quite unconscious of the fact, of course, that other citizens require a certain amount of isleep to fit them "for the day's work ahead. Auckland should be known not as the Queen City of the North but the Queen City of Noise. ' ANTI-NOISE.
