AN ACT OF DESECRATION
POSTER ON CENOTAPH To a certain irresponsible type of mind nothing is sacred—a fact which was brought home to citizens whose business took them past the Cenotaph opposite the Government Buildings yesterday morning. What this cenotapli means to a large number of people in Wellington could certainlj not have been realised by the n> ;uided person who posted on the cenotaph a large square of brown paper with the words “All Blacks” cut into it. Had the vandal responsible for this desecration of a sacred monument to the honoured dead beard the comments of some of those who saw his handiwork, he surely would have felt ashamed of it and himself.
