“KEEP TO THE LEFT.” VO THIS EIIITOB Sxh,—May I, as a visitor to your beautiful city, express surprise at the utter lack of observance by your citizens of the rule of “Keep to the left”? I am pleased to notice that “Keep to the left” signs are to be painted on the footpaths, and hope t will see great changes on my next visit. I am afraid, however, that the Auckland plan of painting a white line right down the centre of the footpath is the only means of getting the host results. In Auckland, also, an officer walks down the line seeing that no pedestrian trespasses on to his wrong side. Needless to say, there is no city in New Zealand where it is such a pleasure to walk in the main street as it is in Queen street, Auckland. I hope the citizens of Dunedin will go even one bettor, than Auckland, remembering the old saying, “If a thing is worth doing at all, it is worth doing well.”—l am, etc.. Keep to the Left. December 15.
