Gisborne Bricklayers Hustled!
We understand that there is likely to be a strike of brickies up Gisborne way owing to the rate they are being hustled to build chimneys knocked down by the recent earthquakes. According to a press Association: —"At Pauriki, Mr. George Busby's station, a bricklayer had just finished rebuilding three chimneys shaken down in the last earthquake, and
was having a smoke preparatory to leaving the job, when the chimneys were again thrown down." Our "brickies" don't mind doing a job or two now and again these hard times, but they think it is a bit too much that they should not be allowed a "smoke-oh" between jobs!
