To the Editor of the "Norra-Cutna Dany News"
Sm.—From the point of view of ihe man who is entirely absorbed by his business, holidays may perhaps mean nothing and may possibly detract from the daily amenities of li But for the majority of rest, but an opportunity of doing use-it be a diversion from one's regular employment.
The cocktail or cabaret habitues are a very small fraction of local society and the wonder is that they work at all, whatever the time they stay in ihe office. I would rather have an employee who worked well and conscientiously for two hours a day than a laggard who shuffled through a long. stretch of eight hours and did very little in the end. it is no exaggeration to say that with exception of those who are paid in foreign currency, very few em-least in the same proportion as for necessaries have advanced. might be done outside the office.
