The City Organist
Sir, —It is with the deepest regret that we are to lose Mr. Page, our city organ-. Ist. Could not some arrangement bo made with the Broadcasting Board and City Council to retain his services? There ‘ are over 34 thousand receiving licenses m Wellington and surrounding district. If these paid a subscription of, say.-i sixpence per year (a ridiculous sum in comparison to the wonderful talent of Mr. Page), £B5O would be collected from this source. The council would then he. in a sound position to pay for his services, also the Broadcasting Board for relaying some first-class organ music seldom heard over the air. All fees could be collected when holders of sets pay, their anual license. Trusting some abler pen will take this matter up,-—I am, etc., COUNTRY LISTENER. Waikanae, November 11,
