Restriction Wanted
Preservation of the foreshores of takes and the margins of rivers against tbs encroachment of huts and shacks will be recommended to the Internal Affairs Departawnt by the council of the North Canterbioy ArrHimtisation Society. Preaenting the suns committee report; Mr G. Mugford arid sportsmen had to be made to use their lege—it was no use them hoping to *taMt a line from the door of their hut; or climb into a top bunk to get a shot at the gasne.” He felt the society should start by asking for huts to be half a mile from the water. No- birds, for instance; would stay within 200 yards at a hut There waa an example of what could happen at the Lower Selwyn, where a good shooting spot had been turned into a village.
