A sly hit at New Plymouth people is often made by the story that no visitor can be properly welcomed to New Plymouth until lie lias been, asked vAYhat "do you think of our Recreation Grounds,” But there are some people whose love for the beautiful prompts them to give the answer without being asked the question.
