NGAMOTU BEACH SANITATION.
(To the Editor.)
Sir,— Concerning the discussion on sanitation at a recent borough council meeting, I’m quite sure had any of the councillors found it necessary to make uen of the conveniences on Ngamotu Beach on New Year’s Day some drastic improvements would have been ordered. The officers of the council responsible appear to be lacking in initiative, otherwise such a state of affairs could not possibly be allowed to exist. _ Might I suggest that immediately prior to a public holiday all offensive matter be removed, and, in addition, the buildings •be sprinkled or sprayed with disinfectant so as to subdue the disagreeable odour emanating therefrom. With infantile paralysis and other diseases hovering around parents are loath to take their children to public beaches where such casual attention is paid to the conveniences provided. I am, etc.,
VISITOR..
