POINTS FROM OTHER LETTERS
"H.J.J." agrees with "F.D.A," about stray dogs and expresses pleasure that the by-laws committee of the City Council is considering a by-law to cover leashing of dogs.
"Lover of Art" expresses astonishment at the poor patronage by Christchurch residents of the exhibition of pictures from the New South Wales Art Gallery.- The writer says that it is the best show ever seen in Christchurch.
"Respecter of Books" supports the correspondent who protested against shop assistants licking their fingers
when wrapping parcels, and blowing into paper bags. "Respecter of Books" also deplores the habit of licking fingers when turning over books and periodicals, and blames the schools, "where children see their teachers constantly using the tongue and fingers in harmony when it is necessary to turn a page."
