SINGLE UNEMPLOYED.

f .1 wish to endorse fully the opinion of I "Single and Sunk." I spent five months pf =. last year in camp, and it was a bitter expenl ence. I had to work very hard to earn my > 1/8 a day and food. How could "Fifty-eight i be happy if he spent eight hours a day breakl ing road metal for 1/8? I left camp because ' there was no encouragement to better myself f hidden away in the backblocks. What chance f has a young man got when he reads of a I suitable position advertised? It is often too r late to reply. I visited the Labour Bureau i on arrival at Auckland in the hope of obtain- . ing work in town and they would not listen t to me. I had to go back to camp. The single . man pays his levy regularly, but when in . want of a little assistance there is none fortli- . coming. He can take it or leave it. Is that so with married men? "Fifty-eight and I Happy" comments on '-learning lessons in his t bachelor days," but I would suggest that perl haps his bachelor days were in a more fortunate period. SINGLE AND UNHAPPY.
