MODES OF COLLECTING.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —Wo are always, at all times, willing to pay our respect to anyone who spontaneously offers .his assistance for the relief of distress, but I am quite sure if the methods of a certain party of students on Wednesday were the methods of all that respect would surely die. It was unfortunate that they should happen to visit a factory that was only working half time, and this, on top of the 10 per cent, cut, leaves tho employees very little to come and go on. Consequently tho response to tho appeal was not as great as it might have been.. This apparently annoyed tho students, for one was heard to remark: “I’d like to sink tho boot into the lot of you”—a “fine” remark, coming from one who is recognised as one of tho educated fraternity. I trust this was not the practice of all students, but if it was the popularity of the students will bo increased tenfold.—l am, etc., The Miskhabi.es. J uly 15.
