\ V . m B 8 A G k ? v Jl' The Laud of Promise! - k;jOratorical spellbinders and forensic wizards are busy oiling up adjectives of such magnitude that we poor advertising writers hang our heads in shame. Skilled word engineers are blue - printing bigger and better promises ... So here we are, at a Candidate's Meeting, being given a vision of the Promised Land. Candidate; “/ reiterate and re-affirm that notwithstanding I stand or fall dedicated to the proposition that I am diametrically opposed to the proposition and therefore propose, to propose the proposition before any opposition to the proposition is likely to be proposed. To me it is as clear as home-brew, I mean mud, that is to say, well, of course, I ask you, what can be clearer than this when it’s staring you in my face?’’ (Cries of ’‘No, no!” "Yes, yes!” "Hear, hear!” "Give us your policy.” Loud laughter. Thunderous applause. Derisive chortles’.) Blonde in audience: “ Oh, Charlie, I’m going to vote for him— I think his gardenia buttonhole is gorgeous.” Candidate: “.4nd! finally, Democracy can never be achieved by a single party.” Tim and Ru; “Agreed! Let’s have one every night in the week. What this country needs is a drop more Timarul”. mJ ■ ■-■ 10* ANNIVERSARY pMsm :: 3 Brewed wtth cl touch oj g emus Copyright Bottled with loving care by Jot*/& Anzac Avenue, Auckland .
