When the Dunedin Exhibition was in progress school children were given a lively interest in New Zealand manufactures, and impressed with their importance to the prosperity of the State. Those lessons should not be ended because the Exhibition is over. One of the best things might be done for our local industries if it became a system for classes of school children to be taken over different industrial plants in turn. They woußl see the process of manufacture and the finished product. Not a few of them ffiight discover the work which would please them more than any other on their leaving school, and the sentiment of “Buy New Zealand goods first" would be deeply planted where it would be most likely to be helpful to our manufactures—in the minds, still unprejudiced by older fallacies, of the buyers of the future. —“Evening Star,” Dunedin.
