Some five weeks ago the Mt. Egmont National Park Board erected a signpost at the intersection of the Dawson’s Fall track with the track to the northern house, as a guide to strangers coming around from Dawson s Falls. Three’ times in succession hoodlums have shifted the board to give the wrong direction to climbers (states the “Taranaki Daily News’’). Other notice boards have received the same treatment. Some four years ago the native trees and shrubs near the houses were named and marked, but the signs were wantonly changed and were therefore worse than useless. 4 hese foolish acts are hard to detect. Ihe public suffer, for naturally the board is not likely to continue erecting signposts when they are subjected to such treatment. ■ , . The amount of building carried out on the Wanganui Hospital site has been fairly considerable during the P as t year, which saw the completion of the first wing of tire new nurses’ home and tlie morgue (states the Wanganui "Chronicle”). Now a commencement has been made by the contractor in demolishing the old carpentering shop in preparation for the erection of the new boiler houw snd chimney stack.
