COOLER UNIFORMS.
lam glad to see the City Council is supplying its traffic officers with cool uniforms and put in an urgent plea on behalf of our poetmen and telegraph boys. These unfortunate servants of the public are forced to wear heavy winter-weight suits buttoned to tie neck during the sweltering summer months; they are even forbidden the ease and coolness of a canoe shirt. Health is of much greater importance than paltry red tape., and surely we are sufficiently enlightened to realise that fact by now. These men could do their work much more efficiently as well as comfortably if their strength was not being drained by the weight, and style of their "uniforms. I urgently ask the Government to consider their plight before the heat becomes more intense. A. BEXXETT.
