THE DEER QUESTION.
To the Editor. ’ Sir, —The letter which appeared in this morning’s paper indicates that the writer is confusing abuse with facts. To use his own words, I ‘was not “Het up” about his effdrts, neither was I surprised. I was merely expressing my belief that Mr Hamilton must be either very inobservant or unwilling to admit the evidence of his eyes. Notwithstanding abundant and indisputable evidence submitted by unquestionable authorities on the subject, I cannot imagine Mr Hamilton admitting that deer do any damage whatever. If I am mistaken, now is his opportunity to show he is making progress in the right direction. When a man admits he has been wrong, it is not a sign of weakness, as some people are foolish enough to believe, but is a sign of strength and progress.—l am, etc., ANTI-DEER. Invercargill, June 17, 1935.
