A WARNING!

It is with regret that we again have to draw attention to the business methods of the Humourous Concrete Company*

Early this week a member of the Wharf Operating Coy. sent us an unprintable letter in which he claims ( and we ,believe him ) that ho had no sooner taken up the ” correct posture ” above on the .• vile seats, th an he hoard a dull, heavy thud beneath him* Ho struggled to his foot and hobbled to tho protection of a nearby Naiouli tree, thinking he unwittingly sat upon a n booby trap « But that is not all.

Imagine his thoughts when ho discovered tho loss of his monoy belt, containing several hundred dollars and his sheath knife. To retrieve the loss was impossible Likewise th© indignity he suffere through being seen hobbling with a bare behind.

Furthermore, late that night figures were seen with lanterns around the ” scats ”, and it is said thy wore seen. with long |)olos poking in a h010*.......

looking for the unfortunate man’s ( money bolt, no doubt. At last, it would seem, wo have unearthed the plot— -you use the seat and lose your money. We approached a Spr. T,W. Armon who filhthe position of under cover man. Ho refused to talk. Ho had the impudence to infer that the Wharf workers received -for +,nn minh mnnov»

In fact, he behaved in the manner of a man guilty of defrauding the public, a practice,wo believe, followed by his x employers* Furthermore, it is a well known fact that two Sgts, from aefcoss the n river ” still refuse to use tho ” seats’! preferring to wait until dark and sneak over when all is quiet....to comfortable seats. This is. bor® out by Sgt. Lipanovic who came into the office this morning. He had just boon across tho river»"l 1 always been used to sitting down taking it easy. Tohell with this squatting. They say that if I go over there, I’ll have to help dig another hole. I’ll do 'it willingly'•••.. that is ithe spirit that made tho Empire and will bring the Humorous Concrete Company to ruin. In the meantime we ask all our readers to leave their money belts in safety, and keep a very close watch on the affairs of the Company, which , we hear, is about to float a loan.
