The D.I.C. on the Quay, Wellington “I don't think there was any word in the language, not even Bible words, which my grandmother pronounced with such an air of solemnity as the word‘linen, fhe words china and cut glass ran it close, but ‘linen was undoubtedly the word in which all het sense of the seriousness of living, her sense of household distinction, her deep sense of the importance of property, and her stetn love of cleanliness found most impressive utterance. She could never have smiled when she said ‘linen.' Women in those days seemed to be laying in a stock of linen for the life to come.” —Sir James Barrie.
