"Pan” says that after having lived in New Zealand for over 84 years and eaten bread in many towns he has come to the opinion that bread in Christchurch is the worst. "After patent mixers, shapers, weighers, and improvers, then the electric oven you can squeeze the result to the shape of a dumbrbell in one hand,” the writer says. "Years ago at Fairlie Creek Station the owner's 18-year-old daughter baked bread for the homestead in a fuel oven built of stone, without patent yeast, making splendid bread. Oamaru also had good bread, using only small potatoes for yeast.” Recent experiences have convinced Audrey E. Sedgley that it is difficult to find a barrister to act against a defendant who is a solicitor. She suggests that others having or having had the same trouble should not hesitate to take their complaints to the Law Society, which she has found courteous and conscientious. “Slumber On, Methodists” would be interested to hear the views of those who support institutional care for dependent children. The writer thinks they have a clear duty to state their case.
“Commonsense" suggests that the Japanese have been able to drive a harder bargain with their trade agreement than they could have done last year if the Prime Minister (Mr Nash) had shown reasonable foresight. When Mr Nash rebuffed the Japanese Prime Minister last December it was obvious that, with the deterioration of the terms of trade with Great Britain, New Zealand must seek new markets, particularly in Japan.
