PIRONGIA MOUNTAIN.
(To the Editor.) Sir,—Are the people of Hamilton and the Waikato generally'going to quietly allow one of their chief beauty spots to be ruined? I refer to Pirongia Mountain. Already the sawmiilers are setting to work there, and we are told that in seven years all the remaining bush will be cut down, right up between the ridges as well as round it. 11 It will then look a poor bare thing like Kakepuku. Can nothing be done to save at l,east some of it? I am only a bird of passage so have no personal interest in the matter, but in future times the people of this country will deeply 1 blame its present inhabitants if this is allowed to happen.—l am, etc., NATURE LOVER.
