A certain farmer came into the village smithy. He explained to the smithy why he could not pay him the few pounds owing. The accursed Dairy Control Board was skimming off the dairy farmer's profits and giving no adequate return. The pig-buyers were beating him badly, too, and the Government was not looking after the interests of the man on the land. Just then a Maori came in, and called out to the farmer: "Hullo, Ehau. Py korry, that the flash new car you got!" No doubt the farmer felt towards the Maori as the nigger lecturer did when he was telling his darkie audience that j the Chinaman was the first man the Lord "invented." He put him on a fence to dry. "And who put dat dar fence dere?" chirped a nigger from the audience. "Clean bowled out" in both cases. Keep Bright Without Cleaning— Just think what it means. Always look like new.
