From East Cape to Cape Egmont by A. H. Reed A. H. & A. W. Reed, 21s. At 85 years of age A. H. Reed undertook a walk from New Zealand's extreme north to extreme south, writing a book about his travels called ‘From North Cape to Bluff’. Now he has made another expedition—from Te Araroa to Egmont, across the widest part of New Zealand. ‘From East Cape to Cape Egmont’ is an attractive account of some of the people, many of them Maori, whom he met on this long trek. When Bishop Panapa re-dedicated the Poho o Kahungunu meeting house at Porangahau recently, he had a few sharp comments to make about education. If he were Prime Minister of New Zealand, he told the large gathering, he would make a law against Maori mothers who take their sons out of school at the age of 15 and place them with shearing gangs. Any mother who did so, he said, ‘should be shot’. The Maori race was breeding like rabbits, but there was nothing wrong with that. ‘The thing is that we are a growing nation and combined with our European brothers what we need is education—first, second and last.’
