HOME BUILDER

Hynes Was A . Go-getter (From "N.Z. Truth's" Christcnurch Ren.) . The home building problem is solved! Listen unto the doctrine j » of John Edward Hynes, laborer, of Christchurch, , and the bogey of high furnishing costs will diminish into thin air. . THOUGH home furnishing has become a comparatively easy matter,, due to a liberal expansion of the hire purchase system, Hynes believes m getting his home together for nothing. Shai c and share alike are his socialistic views, ,but if they allow that 'policy to be carried out m Utopia, the law of New Zealand, up till the present, demands that wherever possible, man shall provide for himself from the. proceeds of his labor, and not from his neighbor's house. When asked to explain last week why he burst open the door of James Cullen's house at 4 Walker Street, and removed, to his own home opposite a quantity, of lino.leum, a chair and a kettle. Hynes told Magistrate E. D.Mosley that he was trying to get a home together. 7 His ' scheme, however, fell flat for Mary Pickett, a neighbor of C.ulien, was an eye-witness of Hynes' method of home building. . 7 When Cuilen found 'his belongings had been tampered with the ihatter was reported, and the goods were subsequently recovered iri his presence from Hynes' house. 7 Hynes pleaded guilty to breaking, entering and theft and was committed to the Supreme Court for sentence. i '..in- ' ■' i » ■ •
