“The most untruthful, thing ever made.” was the description given to gas and water meters by a sneaker at a meeting at Mount Eden (Auckland (states tho “Herald”). Another speaker, in criticising the system of paying for water by meter, said that if anybody in Mount Eden wanted a bath he had to consider how much extra it was going to cost him. In the city they did not . have to think whether they were going to have a bath once a day or once a week. The Port Nicholson Band played at the hospital yesterday afternoon. Tho collection amounted to £8 155., which will be added to the hospital funds.
