To Save Board

f HARLES HENRY LORD is a V business man whose every- : day lay is m the commercial fields of the Auckland district. To be more precjse, he is a salesman for the firm of: Smith, Wylie, Ltd. . For a few days last week, however, Charles was conspicuously absent from his home-grounds. He had an urgent appointment at Dunedin m connection with a sum of £748. presence at Dunedin was secured on warrant, and the fine little figure mentioned above was ; what he owed his wife for back V maintenance on an order for £2 a week, originally issued 'm Christchurch. Something was said about Lord having sold his; home and sailed for Aussie, leaving; his . wife and family with nothing. To which information, Magistrate Bundle remarked m other than complimentary expression. . He was given a healthy chance to make amends, arrears being remitted to £100. But if Lord doesn't keep up the two sovereigns a week, m addition to a crown off the arrears, he'll be lodged, for six months within the grey walls of Mt. Eden gaol. .
