PART OF ENGLAND
POPULAR NEW ZEALAND HOME AWAY FROM HOME (Special to the Herald.) . AUCKLAND, this day. The crew of the sloop Laburnum will be paid off in December, and a new crew will join tlie little warship. ■ Ratings who return to England will be sorry to leave New Zealand. “They told us before we came out that we were coming to a- home away from home,’’ said one petty otlice.r of the Laburnum, to-day. “It was true, for we have found many a home open to us here. We call this foreign service, but we might just as well be in England. It, does not seem to fit in with what we thought was a colony. New Zealand is just, a part of England.”
