"As She Is Wrote."
ENGLISH OF AN INDIAN. LETTER TO SPORTS FIRM. It would seem that the enterprising business houses of India are looking for a footing in the New Zealand market for sports goods. The representative of one Indian factory has recently been in the Dominion, and noted New Zealand requirements, for in a letter received from him since his return to India he states that he has explained those requirements to his factory, and, where necessary, charges are being made in the method of manufacture. The lines specifically mentioned are hockey sticks and cases for both Rugby and Association footballs. The phrasing of the letter is quaint. It reads: "I ■ present due compliments from my native land, where I reached safely, and know, not how to thank and repay deep debt of gratitude and the hospital•ity you showered on me when I frequented your wonderful land. Your business confidence placed in me is really noteworthy, and I implore heaven's assistance to turn all vows practical." And, in conclusion: "Your sweet company and remembrance is really unquitable, and the soothing balm for me would be to see myself once again amongst you all in cheerful mood than before. Please do not forget."
