“Do Not Whine.”
“SHOVE THE OLD CHARIOT ALONGI” i “Money is tight in this country, . and it is going to be tighter,” said - the Hon. 6. J. Anderson at an uni veiling ceremony at Carterton on i Sunday, “But we must not get down L and whine. We; must get down and shove the old coach along instead of s sitting in motor oars and letting it , get along the best way it can.” The ’ man who adopted a go-slow policy at i this juncture was a traitor to his country. It behoved everybody to get ! down to work. That was the only way to help to make this a great country aad to tide over its difficulties. The Word of God, which all respected, said that “In the. sweat of his face so shall he eat "his bread.” The pioneers of this country had had to work hard for what they possessed. The present generation must get down to workwhining tactics would accomplish noth* ing. The men whose memory they were perpetuating did not stop and argue when called “to go over the top.” They went over because they considered it their duty to do so. It was the duty of the people; to build up a lasting edifice on the foundations laid by the men who had mad© the supreme sacrifice. If .this was done the sacrifices would) not have been in vain.
