Farm Workers
Sir, —“Sebago” is evidently a labourer well worthy of his hire, and though he has probably been luckier, or more discriminating, than others in his choice of an employer, nobody would begrudge him his prosperity. It is interesting, however, to note his catalogue of the acquisitions that bear witness to his progress—new carpets and furniture, £lOOO car, £2OO refrigerator, and stainless steel kitchen equipment. He may, of course, in a justifiable pride of ownership, have merely put first things first, as. In a materialistic age, many others would have done; but it might occur to some that there are significant omissions from the list. Anyway, one likes to believe that he has by now achieved the full and unfettered ownership of all these desirable accessories; for otherwise the gilt of this encouraging success story might be just a trifle tarnished.—Yours, etc., ILAM. October 13, 1960.
Sir,—l suggest "Sebago” is all mixed up, and should plant himself along with his namesake.— Yours, etc, HIGH COUNTRY SHEP. October 13, 1960.
