MONDAY, JUNE 5, 1911. Coronation Memorial.

“ Inherent Justice is Eternal Right."

We are glad 'o &eo that the meeting of buige.-sca on Saturday last decided to avail itself of the subsidy at present offering towards a memorial of the Coronation of His Maioaty, and to recommend the Council io erect a public hall, with municipal ollicea and rooms for recreative purposes attached. It is an accepted fact in municipal politics that r iVwn Hals, Public libraries, and recreative institutions of a similar nature are a necessity for an up-to-date community. Tnia being the cate. v:o do not think il.o Council C' tild do better than ond mvour to raise tho necessary funds towards tho erection of a suitable building in keeping with the require, moots of the town. So long as Patea i.. allowed to bo ignored by theatrical and other companies catering h r public cntcrlainmcnt a ul amuse, n.ent so long, will the town occupy h fourth or tilth rate postion in the eyes of the ou’sido world ami many worthy residents that Po!cn should bo raid undoubtedly imeudy and wilbng to in fj.-o with open arms will be (IcK'irC’l Irom taken up their residence in ti.H town. Paten wants all the populntioii it can obtain, am! the city Tithe a should see to it that no tone is loft unturned to make the town u.s healthy and uni... ;ve possible so that tho uu..-i 1 1 ■ (it id in may bo attracted and not ;i-pollcd. And to this end an upto lia'f water arid dr.iiungo service for u-iiu'iau and sanitary purpoos. ami a Town flail as a place of r» mcation are ab.-olu'e )k co-shies.
