A COMPLAINT.
(To the Editor of the Times.) Sir.—l should like to relate a few facts re the cantata held at Patutahi last week. I am glad to hear it was a financial success, but I know that the parents of some children from Makauri who took part in it would have been better satisfied if thenchildren had been left at home instead of being left at Matawhcro Church after 11 o’clock p.m. It was hardly fair that fourlittle girls, aged from 8 to 12, should be allowed to walk home after the toil of their day’s schooling and preparation for the occasion, and walking from Makauri to Matawhcro early in the evening. I think the coachman should have been allowed to drive them home when ho offered to do so.—l am, etc., A Party Concerned.
