THE COST OF LIVING
Sir, —Where are a lot of young New Zealanders’ brains today? Not in their heads. They run to Sid for everything. In time they are in for a rude awakening. In the ’Bo’s there was a potato famine, and Pat and Mick went to O’Shanassey’s for a feed of turnips, and a great blow out they had. On the way home a bull chased Pat. Mick roared out. “Go for your life, Pat. he can smell the turnips within you.”— Yours, etc., P. S. DRAPER. December 15, 1953.
