CLEARING THE BEACHES
Sir, —Now that the longer and finer days are here many will frequent the beaches along the waterfront, it is to ( be hoped that the "powers that be" will give some attention, to the tidying-up of the beaches. While our council is to be commended for the attention bestowed upon keeping the I amaki Drive in a neat and clean condition, some regular removal of rubbish is required to render our beaches fit for women and children to use in comfort and cleanliness. At present their pleasure is spoiled by the accumulation of dead seaweed, and, alas, broken bottles that unthinking persons leave about, to the great danger of all barefoot children and bathers. The writer remove's numbers of these deadly menaces nearly every day. I trust that the authorities concerned will attend to this necessary work before summer is come. Watchman .
