NOT IN THE PICTURE
"We used to believe entirely in the picture of the early pakeha pioneer and his magnificent efforts to carve himself a nome out of the primeval forests,” said Sir Apirana Ngata in his address to the Auckland Institute, last evening. “But the man who helped him, actually felled the trees, burnt-off, sowed, split the posts and battens, put up the fences, mustered the cattle and drove the wethers to market was not in the picture at all. The Maori has still to be written up in a fair history of this country.”
