There was considerable laughter at last night's meeting of the City Council when Councillor M. E. Lyons asked the chairman of the Baths Committee (Councillor T. 11. Butterfield) if he was aware that a large number of bathing costumes made in New Zealand, which were purchased last year on the strong recommendation of Councillor Cooke, had had to be returned to the manufacturers to be repaired, lie stated that a big number purchased three years ago at a cheaper price, were still in service and did not need repairing. Councillor Butterfield laughingly said he would make inquiries about the matter. Councillor Cooke remarked that probably it was just a fabrication. Councillor Lyons: It’s quite correct; it’s not a fabrication.
