WHO'S TO BLAME.
TO THE BDWOB. Sir,— Passing through Victoria Park on Sunday evening about half past six. I was much astonished to hear the sounl of two lawn mowers briskly at work on the -grass. It was the caretaker and hia son busily .preparing for the morrow's sports. It ' would be interesting to know whether thisofficer was acting under instructions, or whether his Sunday labour was s'mply the outcome of an inborn love of toil. If the former, I think the matter should be investigated by the Council, as this is not the nrst fime that similar Sabbath deseoratjon has preoeeded a day of sports tq be held on Monday, If, oa the other hand the caretaker works sevsn days in the week of his own free will be must be a greater foolthan I take him for. In any case ths people who pass through a public resarve on their way to church have a right to be protected from the Bight and sound of suoh totally unnecessary deseor&tion 1 of the D tty o f Beat.,— lam die, James Aitseh.
