MOORHOUSE AVENUE BORDERS
Sir, —Moorhouse avenue is not only the entry to Christchurch from Lyttelton, Dunedin, and other centres through which overseas visitors pass, but is also the highway along which thousands of school children from all over- Christchurch and Canterbury must pass on their way to educational institutions situated thereon. Certain philosophers apd poets have credited beauty equally with truth as productive of good. Is there any valid reason why Christchurch, so well planned and planted by pioneers to be a lovely Cathedral city, now in process of being altered to an industrial centre, should become both ugly and neglected from the point of view of aesthetics? —Yours. INSIDIOUS TRENDS." June 11, 1954.
