PROGRESS AND CONSISTENCY.
(To the Editor.) Sir,—Dear old A. A. George again returns to the attack. I have known the old fellow for more years than I like to remember, and never yet do I remember him spreading anything else than the gall bag of criticism. Surely it is time he joined the Mustard Club. I ask him, as man to man, has he ever had a decent word to say for any public man in all his years of so-called public criticism? Come, come. A. A., we are all travelling the road from which there is no return, just throw one or two bouquets for a change, and, in particular, to the younger generation of Hastings’ products. They are really doing their best, and a kind word is like rays of sunshine in these hard days. We are all very proud of Hastings, whatever you say, and always remember, when you can’t say good and kind things about people seriously consider whether it is worth saying anything at all. Your remarks regarding Russell street and the Women’s Rest are too warped to be worth commenting upon—the people are the judges of these benefits, and I am afraid' your views would meet with very little approbation from 95 per cent, of our citizens.—l am. etc-, IN CHARITY. Hastings, 29/5/28.
