GRAIN AND POTATO MARKET.[BT TELEGRAPH.—PBBSS ASSOCIATION.]

CHRISTCHURCH, Friday.There seems to be a distinctly keen inquiry

from a nusafeer of millers to secure wheatnow, Millers -who have been holding off haveapparently awakened to the fact that' thereiB less wheat in the country at the presenttime than there was at this time last year,and the result is that there lately has beena distinctly brisker demand.

Business is quiet m the oats market, andthere is no change in prices, which.remainfirm. Daring' the past few days business inpotatoes has slackened off a good deal, andfew merchants ate oflerae more than £» to£8 5a per ton, unless for special samples otextra good' keepers.

EPIDEMIC AFTERMATH.

CLAIM FOR EXTRA SICK PAY.

JUDGMENT FOR DEFENDANT. .Judgment -was delivered yesterday by

Mr. E. C. Gotten, S.M., in an actionby Thomas Ashe (Mr. Dickson) againstthe Auckland Electric Tramways Company(Mr. McVWgh) for payment of wages

-during the whole period the-plaintiff wasabsent from his duties owing to the in-fluenza Epidemic. The case was heard earlyin July, and the evidence showed that theplaintiff had been away from his duties

; for three weeks ■ during, the epidemicperiod. A large number of the company'semployees had been absent for varyingperiods through the epidemic, and thecompany had paid all its employees whohad contracted the complaint full wagesfor two weeks. The plaintiS claimed thesum of £4 10b for the extra week he had

: been compelled to remain away from -workthrough illness.

The magistrate, held that the companyhad established that its custom for many.year* had been to pay a fortnight'sjaragesto employees absent through sickness; Anattempt-had been made by the employees

•■ to have a clause inserted in their in-'. dustrial award that workers be paid all. time off due to sickness at full rates, but

. this was opposed ■ by the company, andwas not included in the award. He heldthat the company's' action, did not conflictin any way with the award, and gavejudgment for the defendant company.

BY-LAW INFRINGEMENT.

V MOTOR CAB COLLISION.Charges of having committed breaches

Cutten, S.M.The prosecution arose out of a motor carcollision in Argyle Street. The chargeagainst Harbutt was for having drivenat an excessive speed, and against Dr.

I Drier of having driven on the wrong sideof the road.

I Sub-Inspector Wohlmann said that theinformations were laid in consequence of

> the evidence given in an action for dam-ages between the parties.

[ The magistrate intimated that on theI evidence in the civil case there could be

no conviction against Harbutt, and theinformation was withdrawn. Dr. Drier

, was ordered to pay the costs.

LAND AND PRODUCTION.The time is once more approachingwhen our constitution throws uponthe men and women of New Zealand,individually and collectively, the re-sponsibility for good government.There are many indications that theconstituencies are prepared to dis-charge their duty of selecting mem-bers of the new Parliament withrather greater care and discrimi-nation than usual, fully realising theimmense importance at this junctureof strong, efficient, and honest ad-ministration. Unfortunately a gen-eral election always brings distrac-tions which handicap the judg-ment of the, most critical, andit is, therefore, advisable thatthe elector should form in ad-vance his conclusions on the prin-cipal aspects of policy, that, infact, he should make up his mindwhat he expects of the next Govern-ment and of the candidate for whomhis vote is to be cast. In any suchsurvey of the larger national issuesit is impossible to escape the para-mount influence on the economic lifeof New Zealand of land settlement,and electors would do well to weighcarefully what candidates have tosay on this all-important subject.A table showing the percentage oftotal exports falling under differentclasses will illustrate how predomi-nant the pastoral industries havealways been and how they areenlarging their share of produc-tion: -

'

Acricul-Year. Pastoral. Mining, tural. Forest. Other.1900 .

. 66.3 12.0 9.3 6.5 5.91905 i. 69.8 14.9 2.7 5.7 6.91910 .. 79.0 10.6 2.2 4.0 4.21915 .. 83.6 6.8 2.1 2.1 5.41916 .. 87.6 5.0 0.6 2.2 4.6

The feature of the export returns ofthe past twenty years is the greatincrease in the volume of dairy pro-duce which has grown tenfold.Wool reached its maximum percen-tage, 47.9, in 1897, showed a ten-dency to decline till 1902, but hassince partially regained its position.Frozen meat has in recent yearsconstituted approximately 20 percent, of the total exports, but theshipments have fluctuated consider-ably during the war period. Goldhas decreased from approximately10 per cent, to less than 3f per cent,of the total exports in 1916. Soinsignificant are manufactures thatthey are not now recorded in theGovernment statistics as a separategroup.

The importance of the rural indus-tries may be viewed from anotherangle by considering the revenuesthey contribute to the nationalexchequer. The land tax is itselfa not unimportant item, as the fol-lowing table shows: —

. PercentageYear ended Land Total

March 31. Tax. Taxation.£

1914 .. 767.451 12.971915 .. 799.641 13.601916 .. 1.048.356 14 431917 .. 713,118 6.761918 . . 1.385,708 11 231919 . . 1.512.693 11.03

It is, of course, impossible to esti-mate the contributions of theprimary industries to the railwayand postal services or to Customsand other duties, but they un-doubtedly form a very considerableproportion of the total. An excep-tion must be made in respect toincome tax since an official returnfor the year 1917-18 has been pub-lished showing the sources of thislevy. From this it appears that12,548 landowners with assessableincomes of £11,886,958 paid£1,480,775 in income tax, anamount which was only exceeded bythat derived from companies paying£3,107,196. Of the companies'income tax farmers again bore ashare, but the analysis can be car-ried no further. The revenue fromCrown and national endowment landduring the year was £306,136. Thismakes a total of £3,172,619 in landand income tax and land revenuedirectly traceable to the primaryindustries, or nearly one-sixth of thetotal receipts of the State for theyear 1917-18. If it were possible

to trace the indirect : revenues -thepercentage Would be much moreimpressive.

~

But perhaps the most convincingway of demonstrating the close con-nection between land settlement andthe prosperity of New Zealand is tocompare the .growth of cultivationand of trade over a course ofyears:—

Under cultivation. Exports. Imports.

1870 .. 997.477 4.544.682 4.639.0151875 '.. 1,948.653 5.475,844 8.029.1721880 .. 4.506.889 6-.102.300 6.162.011 '

JfgS .. 6.550.399 6.591.911 7.479.9211890.. 8,015,426 9,428,781 6,260,5251895 .. 10,128.076 8,890.153 6,400.1291900 .. 12,474.511 13.055.249 10.646.0961905 . . 13,868.074 15.503.530 12.828.8571910 .. 15.566.308 21.944.168 17.051.5831915 - iT 16. 154.218 31.042.862 21.728-.834•Including sown grasses.

It will be observed that the exports,which for this comparison are con-fined to New Zealand produce, haveexpanded with every advance inland settlement, and imports haveincreased at a slightly lower ratio.In the period mentioned thearea of land under cultivationhas grown sixteen times, exportsnearly seven times and importsnearly five times. No statisticscoufd teach a plainer lesson. , Thegreat economic need of the Dominionat the present time is expansion ofproduction, and the easy and certainway of securing this is to foster landsettlement. No candidate who doesnot make this a cardinal plank inhis platform is worthy of a place inthe House of Representatives. Set-tlement, rapid settlement, andgenuine settlement is the key to allthe economic problems of the war.The limited form of settlement in-volved in the subdivision of estatesis useful in its way, but it is expen-sive and has severe limitations. Theopening up of Crown and nativelands will far more rapidly andsurely increase production and swellthe wealth and prosperity of theDominion. By this form of settle-ment New Zealand became great,by this form she will become greaterStill.

WAIHI TO TAURANGA.

The pleasing assurance is given bythe Minister for Public Works thathe is making ample provision on theEstimates for the Waihi-Taurangasection of the East Coast railway.The districts interested, which em-brace practically the whole province,can but hope that the Minister'sconception of what is ample will notprove disappointing, and that he willnot only place sufficient money onthe Estimates, but will see that itis spent. Parliament has alreadyvoted ample sums for the completionof this section, but the authorisationshave been greatly under-expended.Not until Estimates can be acceptedas a real indication of the intentionsof the Department will Ministerialpromises be valued as they should.There is an opportunity for the De-partment to show its bona fides byits treatment of the Waihi-Taurangasection. No gap in the New Zea-land system is of greater importancethan this, and few have been so oftenand so lightly obstructed. The com-pletion of this connection will givethrough communication to Matata,and add 80 miles to the railwaysystem of the North Island. If thereasonable policy of completing thegaps is at last to be adopted, theDepartment could nowhere make abetter start than between Waihi andTauranga.

THE TRAWLING LIMITS.

The restriction of the Aucklandfish supply on account of bad wea-ther is an inconvenience which canand should be removed withoutdelay. The Fisheries Commission,to which was referred the vexedquestion of trawling limits, recom-mended that trawlers should be ad-mitted to a small area of shelteredwater protected from northerlywinds. The object of this conces-sion was to permit of continuousfishing and the maintenance of regu-lar supplies, a most important fac-tor in keeping down prices. So farthe authorities have not altered thetrawling limits as advised by theFisheries Commission, but no goodreason appears to exist for thedelay. The commission assumedthat a cheap and continuous supplyof fish should be the main object ofDepartmental policy. It is incon-ceivable that the Minister or hisofficials should dissent from so ad-mirable and practical point of view.Their endorsement of it has now be-come a matter of urgency, since thecost of living in Auckland is in somesmall measure affected by the pre-sent lack of sufficiently-shelteredtrawling grounds.

OVERSEAS MAIL SERVICES.

The virtual lapsing of the Van-couver and San Francisco mail ser-vices is a matter of such importancethat the . business community is en-titled to an explanation of the newpolicy of the Post Office. The lastEnglish mail to arrive by the Pacificsteamers on which the Dominionpays an annual subsidy was landedat Auckland on May 30. Since thenletters and newspapers from Eng-land have been carried on trans-ports, many of which have come byway of the Panama Canal. Thestop-gap service is irregular, uneven,and uncertain, and cannot be per-mitted to assume a permanentcharacter. It is generally believedthat the mails were diverted fromthe Vancouver route because of therecent strike in Canada, but thelines of communication are againopen, and the public is curious toknow why services which cost thetaxpayer a considerable sura an-nually are not being used. Thewhole question of mail services andsubsidies is one that should comeunder the review of Parliament thissession. The contracts for the Van-couver and San Francisco routeshave been only temporarily re-newed, and the time is therefore op-portune for a reconsideration ofthe Dominion's mail arrangements.But whatever may be the nature offuture mail contracts, the value ofthe Vancouver and San Franciscoservices cannot be denied, and theGovernment should revert to the useof them as soon as possible.

LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS.

The letter portion of the small Ameri-can mail, which arrived in Wellington bythe Moana on Thursday night, shouldreach Auckland by the Main Trunk ex- ;

Eress this morning. Ab the newspapers areeing brought by goods train, this portion

of the . mail will not be distributed inAuckland until Tuesday. The newspaperportion of. the English mail, brought oythe Cordoba, and that brought from Aus-tralia by the Port Nicholson, will be de-livered "in the city this morning.

A troop train with soldiers who arrivedat Wellington by the transports AdolphWoermann and Oordoba reached Auck-land shortly after nine o'clock yesterdaymorning. The men for Auckland Cityand northern points numbered about 170,over 150 having left the train at stationssouth of Auckland. The men were metby members of the Voluntary Motor Corps,who conveyed them with their next of kinto their homes.

The mascot of the battle-cruiser NewZealand, the bulldog Pelorus Jack, wasyesterday handed over by Captain 0. E.Leggett to the Deputy-Mayor, Mr. A. J.Entrican, as a gift to the citizens ofAuckland. The " able sea dog " was im-mediately despatched to Motuihi Island,where it will require to remain in quaran-tine for about six months. The periodmay be less seeing that since leaving Aus-tralia on board the New Zealand PeloronsJack has not been ashore at all. In themeantime, its silver harness and its goldcollar, have been taken possession of byMr. T. E. Pearson, superintendent ofparks,- who

,will eventually be* the

custodian 6f the dog.An inquest concerning the death of

Roland Bell, a married man, aged 39,who died at the police station on Thurs-day morning was held by Mr. J. E. Wil-son, S.M., coroner, yesterday. Evidencewas given as to the arrest of the deceasedon Wednesday evening on a charge ofdrunkenness, and to his collapse in theexercise yard at} the police station at a-quarter past nine next morning. Dr. D.N. W. Murray, who made a post-mortemexamination, states' that the cause ofdeath was disease of the aortic valve ofthe heart. The coroner returned a ver-dict in accordance with the medical evi-dence.

The most sacred event of the Jewishyear falls to-day. It is the Fast of YomKippur. or the Day of Atonement Theceremonies were commenced at the Auck-land Synagogue last evening, on theoccasion of "Kol Nidrei," and will becontinued throughout to-day.

It will be concluded with thesounding of the shofar, the ram's horn ofancient fame. Rabbi 8. A. Goldstein,and Rabbi Katz will officiate.

The removal of the restrictions uponrailray traffic has had the immediate re-sult of increasing the tourist traffic toRotorua. The Tourist Department is nowissuing tickets in the ordinary way, andalthough the wet weather which has pre-vailed all this week has deterred manyfrom travelling, a considerable number ofinquiries have been.made by prospectivetravellers. The officer in charge of thebureau anticipates a large influx of peopleinto Rotorua shortly, a great many visitshaving been postponed during the pastthree months.

-The supplement issued with to-day'sHekai/B contains a number of specialarticles and other features of interest.Among the former is an article by Ma-tanga, entitled, "Two Naval Epochs."It deals with the visit of Captain Cookto New Zealand in 1769. and that ofH.M.S. New Zealand in 1919. The use ofbank notes as currency is the theme of anarticle by H. W. Segar, M.A. An in- iteresting nature sketch, "An OutdoorDiary," is from the pen of "Rambler."Ivan-Byth contributes an article on his-torical Portsmouth, " The Navy's Cradle."The "War Ruins of France," by Mrs.Leo Myers, gives a graphic description ofthe task of reconstruction before thai-people of that desolated land. A columnof Nature Notes, compiled by J. Drum-mond, and one of Local Gossip, by Mer-cutio, complete an interesting front-page.

An interesting relic from the H.M.S.Orpheus, wrecked on the Manukau Bar in1863, is now in the possession of Mr. F.H. Combes, of Remuera. The wreck waspurchased by Messrs. Combes and Daldy,of Auckland, and shortly afterwards a boytook to their office a parcel containingwhat was identified by one of the survivingofficers as the Communion cup and plateused on the ship. The officer remarkedthat they must nave come ashore in theplate chest with a large number of othervaluable articles. The firm announced byan advertisement in the newspapers that ithad purchased everything connected withthe ship, but no further articles wererestored to them, although it is stated thata silver urn was once publicly exhibited atan entertainment as a relic of the Orpheus.

Frequent references having been madeby Lord Jeliicoe to the need for instillingin the youth of the country a love of thesea. the Mayor of Devonport, Mr. H. S.W. King, asked the admiral before theNew Zealand's departure yesterday, if hewould give three autographed copies ofhis photograph, in the uniform of anadmiral of the fleet, for presentation tothe three Devonport schools. The dis-tinguished visitor at once granted the re-quest. Mr. King is now in possession ofthe three photographs, and he intends tohave them suitably framed prior to pre-senting them to the Devonport SchoolCommittee. They will no doubt be Dlacedin a prominent position in the schools,a perpetual reminder of the visit of Ad-miral Jellicoe and H.M.S. New Zealand.

A request that the legal business con-nected with the settlement of returnedsoldiers should be distributed among allthe returned soldiers in the legal profes-sion in Auckland was recently made in amemorial addressed to the Minister forLands. The Minister in reply stated thatthe Department considered it inadvisableto distribute the work on account of theadditional departmental work which, itwas asserted, would be entailed. The mat-ter was discussed yesterday at a meetingof solicitors who have been on active ser-vice. Mr. H. B. Speight, who presided,stated that the legal firm to whom allthe business in question was now entrustedhad declined an invitation to be repre-sented at the meeting, but had stated thatthe matter had been placed before the LawSociety. After a discussion, in the courseof which it was contended that a distribu-tion of the work would facilitate ratherthan retard the completion of transactions,it was decided to appoint a sub-committeeto reply to the Minister's statement andalso to interview Mr. C. J. Parr, M.P.upon the subject.

A handsome rose-bowl for annual com-petition among the members of the St.(John Ambulance nursing division has beenreceived by the Auckland corps' ladysuperintendent, Mrs. C. Smith, from Mrs.V.

PUKEKOHE TO BENEFIT.

DEPARTMENTAL ANNOUNCEMENT.From to-morrow the express from Wel-

lington on Sunday mornings will stop atPukekohe and Newmarket, and the ex-press from Auckland on Sunday eveningswill stop at Pukekohe.

A petition on the. subjectwas recently presented to Parliament.

TRAMWAY EXTENSIONS.

EFFECT OF STEEL STRIKE./

SOME DELAY PROBABLE.

PLANS FOR FOUR WORKS.The tramway extensions which the City

Council intends to carry out, Mid for whichall the plans and specifications have beencompleted, are likely to be delayed by thesteel strike now in progress in America-Rails, etc., are on order in that country,and, in the ordinary course, should havebeen landed in Auckland within the nextfew months. The industrial trouble, how-ever, renders it quite uncertain whendelivery will now be made.

Discussing the position yesterday thechairman of the Public Services Committeeof the council, Mr. W. J. Holdsworth,stated that rails which were quoted beforethe war at £7 per ton had now risen to£29 per ton. For the four works scheduled600 tons were required, but the councilconsidered the price was too high andmight come down later. That being so,it only authorised the committee to orderhalf the quantity required. Since theorder for the 300 tons was placed withan American firm the strike had occurred.

The extensions to be carried out, saidMr. Holdsworth, were Anzac Avenue, theduplication of the Grey Lynn and Do-minion Road lines, besides alterations tothe levels in Manukau Road, Parnell. Ithad not yet been decided which of theseworks would be first put in hand. Justprior to the outbreak of the war the Tram-ways Company, which then controlled thetrams, promised that the Grey Lynn dupli-cation would be undertaken before anyother extensions. It had to be considered,however, that the council now owned thewhole of the Anzac Avenue property, andit was to its interests to have the lineconstructed along that outlet from the cityas soon as possible. Nothing had beendecided yet, but the committee would gofully into the matter shortly and come toa decision as to which of the four worksshould be recommended to the council forprecedence.

BETTER ROADS WANTED.DEPUTATION TO MR, MASSEY.

THE VICTORIAN SYSTEM.

PROMISE OF LEGISLATION.(■BT TELEGBAPH.PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

WELLINGTON, Friday.Replying to a deputation from the Good!

Roads Association this morning, the PrimeMinister, Mr. Massey, said he was in fullagreement "with the views expressed.

There was a general demand, very natu-rally and properly, for good roads at thepresent moment, and he could say he didnot know of anything New Zealand wasso much behind in, compared with othercountries,' as in road construction. Bubthis was not tmnatural, considering NewZealand was a young country.

The matter, however, was largely one ofcost, and he reminded them that therewas a limit to the amount the countrycould borrow, and to the taxing capacityof the country. They could rely on it,notwithstanding other important claims,that the Government was thoroughly withthem. He was not acquainted with theVictorian Act, but would read it, and heassured them that if the Governmentthought New Zealand could profit byadopting that measure" the Governmentwould not be. slow to act.

Mr. Massey proposed to take the matter-in hand before the Jiouse rose, and, if hecould learn sufficient irom the VictorianAct to tenable him to legislate in the rightdirection he would do so. A good roadspolicy would be taken in hand as earnestlyand vigorously as the opportunity offered.

WOULD YOUINSURE YOUR LIFEWITH "AN INDIVIDUAL?.The prudent man would not seriously con-

sider Mich a proposition.Why, then, appoint an individual Executor

to administer your estate?He will attend to his own business first.

He may not possess the necessaryexperience to manage yours. Heoffers no security, and may speculatewith the funds of the estate. Hemay show preference to some bene-ficiaries to the disadvantage cf othersHe may die or leave the Dominion.The estate would then pass into un-,known possibly into the handsof someone whom the testator wouldnever have trusted.

A. an! N.Z. LONDON. Oct. 2.

The conference between the PrimeMinister, Mr. D. Lloyd George,and the representatives of the rail-'

ay men has broken down, no settle-,men? being arrived at. This an-nouncement was made to-day by<jMr.J. H. Thomas, organising secretaryof the National Union of Railway-men.

Hi fore this announcement an opti-mistic feeling prevailed, and it wasreported that a settlement was immi-nenf

There is little doubt but the un-looked-for success of the Govern-ment's measures have strengthenedmoderate opinion.

This success is shown by the offi-cial announcement that 2000 trainsscheduled for Wednesday weremore than secured- This number wasdouble Tuesday's trains.

The food situation is even better.Apart from milk, London can live onits present food stocks for a monthor si*: weeks, while the provinces areprovided with ample local supplies,including great herds of cattle andsheep, which are being driven to thetowns along the high roads of ,theMidlands and the north. Leicester-shire farmers alone ate supplying2000 cattle, and many more sheep,which in many cases are being driven50 miles along the roads.

PROGRESS OF CONFERENCE.

THREE SITTINGS HELD.

SOME ADVANCE MADE.Australian and N.Z. Cable- Association.

(Reed. 12.20 a*m.) LONDON. Oct. 2.Instead of immediately authoris-

ing a strike, as the " hot-heads" ex-pected, the conference of the Trans-port Workers' , Federation, afterlistening to Mr. Arthur Henderson'sopening speech, .called in Messrs.* J.H. Thomas and Bromley, and heardthem for an hour. It then elected adeputation of eleven members to goto Downing Street to interview Mr.Lloyd George. The deputation in-cluded Messrs. Gosling, Williams, «T.R. Clynes, A. Henderson, O' Grady,Brownlie, and Naylor.

Their representations were so suc-cessful that Mr. Thomas was invitedto Downing Street for a second con-ference at nine o'clock, in whichMessrs. Cramp and Bromley andother members of the strike execu-tives also joined. This conferencelasted four hours, the trades union-ists meanwhile remaining at CaxtonHall. The length of the conferenceproved that substantialprogress wasbeing made. This was confirmedwhen it was officially announced thatMr. Lloyd George was meeting thedeputation again this morning.

It is now the general belief andhope that the railwaymen havelearned the impossibility of main-taining their position, and are anxi-ous for settlement.

POSITION IN PROVINCES.

NO SERIOUS DEVELOPMENTS.

INDUSTRIES CONTINUING.Ken*«r. • LONDON. Oct. 2.

Except in the west of Scotland andSouth Wales the situation in the pro-vinces is not very bad.

Canal transit in the Midlands isproving most helpful in supplying 'fuel and raw material for numerousindustries.

though many collieries are closedor partially closed, there is nothinglike a general breakdown of industryin the Black Country.

The situation in Manchester, Liver-pool, and Birmingham is not yetserious.

In the west of Scotland 25,000 outof ,'52,000 steel workers, and 25,000miners are idle. The position in EastScotland is not serious, though ship-ping is tied up at some ports. Thefood situation in the provinces is ex-cellent.

PREMIER'S PLAIN LANGUAGE.

LEADERS STILL OBDURATE.

SUGGESTED COMMISSION.By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.A. and N.Z. LONDON. Oct. 2.

The Transport Workers' Federa-tion decision is expected to-night.After a protracted sitting, Mr. Gos-ling, president of the TransportWorkers' Federation, who headed adeputation including prominentlabour leaders whose unions are notinvolved in the strike, asked Mr.Lloyd George whether he wished bosee the- railwaymen's executive.Mr. Lloyd George replied that hewas ready to meet them, but no-thing could be gained by ambiguity,and there had been a great deal ofmisunderstanding already. There-fore he wanted to make it quiteclear that the Government constered it impracticable to reopen nego-tiations until the railwaymen re-sumed. The Ministern concerned inthe negotiations could not attemptto deal with the questions involvedwhile their whole energies were de-voted to improvising means to carryon the life of the nation.

The railway strike leaders stillmaintain that it is impossible tosecure a general return -of the menprior to negotiations unless they canoffer them an assurance of equitablewages and treatment compared withthe locomotive men, but even theirapologists in the press recognise thatresumption is essential to the successof the negotiations. The positionis still critical, but the new spirit ofstatesmanship manifested yesterdayis regarded as a good augury.It is possible that a settlement

may be effected on lines that a tri-bunal or commission be immediatelyappointed to examine the whole warwage question, taking the case ofthe railwaymen first. .

PAYMENT OF BACK WAGES.

REFUSAL BY GOVERNMENT.

SPECIAL SESSION URGED.Australian) and N.Z. Cable Association.

(Bocd. 12.20 a.m.) LONDON. Oct. 2.

The question having been raisedwhether the Government should paythe railwaymen for their week'swork prior to the strike, which wasdue, it is stated that the Govern-ment has decided to refuse, as themen left without notice. Sir EricGeddes, Sir Auckland Geddes, SirWilliam Home, and others, assistedMr. Lloyd George in the later stagesof the conference.

Lord Robert Cecil calls upon theGovernment to summon Parliamentfor confidential discussions, whichcannot take place in Parliamentarydebates.

The Daily Express proposes thatLondon business houses give theiremployees a holiday from Thursdayto Monday if the strike continues.

MANY VOLUNTEER WORKERS

MODERATES' OPPORTUNITY.

EXTREMISTS IN MINORITY.United Service.. LONDON. Oct. 2.

The newspapers are reduced tohalf-size, and the greatest difficultyis experienced in distribution.Motors are being used, as well asaeroplanes.

The rush of volunteer workers hascaused the authorities to open freshenrolment depots. Dense crowdsare assembling at daybreak, eager todo anything. Peers are snippingtickets, peeresses are serving in re-freshment rooms, bishops and clergymen are conveying mails and rollingtrolleys, brigadier-generals andcolonels are acting as porters, mov-ing luggage, and city magnates arestoking in the power-houses.Twenty thousand workers are pro-vided nightly with hotel accommoda-tion and meals.

Ladies' committees have organisedstalls providing free teas for 16,000city girls on their homeward walksfrom work. *

The complete triumph of the mode-rate Labour leaders is believed tobe assured as the result of yester-day's and to-day's proceedings.

The extremists bad their chanceyesterday, when the choice lay be-tween far-reaching developments andmediation. They hold importantpositions in unionism, but proved tobe in a small minority in the Executive Council. They seemed to feelhelpless against an unflinching, determined, and aroused public.

SIR J. WARD ANGRY.DISPUTE WITH MR. HINE.

~~

\

MISQUOTATION ALLEGED.______

*

INCIDENT IN THE HOUSE.[BT TELEGRAPH.SPECIAL REPORTER.]

WELLINGTON* Friday.

The calm with which the House ofRepresentatives has listened to the debateon the Financial Statement was slightlyruffled this evening, when the Hon. J. B.Hine, Minister for Internal Affairs, wascommenting on Sir Joseph Ward's speech.

Mr. Hine was dealing with Sir JosephWard's criticism of the soldier settlementscheme, when he drew from the Leader ofthe Opposition the interjection : "That isabsolutely untrue."

A call of "Order!" brought Sir JosephWard to his feet.

"Well, I withdraw, but I have beenmisquoted. He has misquoted me inevery instance, and then commented onthe statements."

Mr. Hine : If the Leader of the Opposi-tion objects to the reports of his speechhe should read them and refute them, andthen come here and object.

Sir Joseph Ward: You should takenotes of my speech yourself if you aregoing to criticise it.

A few moments later Mr. Hine was deal-ing with what the Leader of the Opposi-tion had said about the need for a revalua-tion of land, and said that a share of theresponsibility rested upon Sir JosephWard, concluding that the state of affairshad come about when he was a member ofthe National Government which he de-serted.

Sir Joseph Ward: That is absolutely un-true.

Mi". Speaker: Order.Sir Joseph Ward: Well, I withdraw, but

if the hon. member says I deserted theNational Government, he is saying some-,thing which is absolutely contrary to fact.Moreover, I was never in charge of theValuation Department, and to say thatI deserted the National Government isabsolutely contrary to fact and the PrimeMinister knows it.

Mr. Hine said he had never said thatSir Joseph Ward was in charge ofthe Valuation Department. Sh- JosephWard had said that a huge sum had beenlost in taxation in Hawke's Bay owing to Jtihe need for revaluation. These thingsIhad happened when Sir Joseph was amember of the Government. Why had henot then drawn the attention of the Gov-ernment to the state of affairs and had itrectified?

When Mr. Hine had concluded his speechSir Joseph Ward said he wished to makean explanation. He said Mr. Hine hadcharged him with cavilling at the amountof money to be spent on the settlementof soldiers.

"I did nothing of the kind," declaredSir Joseph, who proceeded to explainwhat his declaration had been. "If the

"honourable member suggests that I amobjecting to the amount to be spent onthe soldier," said Sir Joseph, "he doesnot know what I have been doing whilehe was away from this country."

COAL FOR RAILWAYS.

OFFERS TO DEPARTMENT.

REJECTION OF A CARGO.

SHIPPING MANAGER'S EVIDENCE,

[BY TELEGRAPH. —PRESS. ASSOCIATION.]WELLINGTON, Friday.

The sittings of the Railway Commis-sion were continued to-day.

James Findlay, New Zealand managerof the Shaw, Saviil, and Albion ShippingCompany, and chairman of. the OverseasShipping Committee, said that coallanded by the steamer Raranga was re-fused in February, 1917, the price being

21s a ton. About that time the com-mittee had two boats handy which mighthave carried about 4000 tons each, but,in view of the previous rejection, theywere not offered. He produced correspon-dence showing that an offer by his com-pany in May, 1917, to bring over coal inJune of that year was refused by theRailway Department.

There had been a coal shortage before1917, and he did not think there was anygreat rush on the Home liners in thosedays to bring over coal. Probably asteamer could have been obtained for thecarrying of coal before then, but he couldnot say what the price was.

In 1916 it would have cost 35s a tonto get a vessel to carry coal to New Zea-land from Newcastle on time charter. Hehad recommended the charge for coalfrom Newport News, America, to be 26sa ton. That was declared to be unprofit-able, and the price was raised to 40s,which did not result in any great profit

E. E. Gillon, chief railway mechanicalengineer, giving evidence, said he wouldrather have a ton of Newcastle coal thana ton of Westport. Westport coal had toundergo severe handling before it reachedthe railway locomotive, but there was nosuch disability in connection with coalfrom Newcastle. The coal from the New-castle mines was of a harder description.

The commission leaves for Christchurchto-night.

ADMIRAL JELLICOE SAILS.MEMORABLE VISIT ENDED.GREAT CROWD ON WHARVES.

AN ENTHUSIASTIC FAREWELL

WARSHIP BOUND FOR FIJI,The memorable visit of the Admiral of

the Fleet, Lord Jellicoe, ended with thedeparture of B.M.S. New Zealand yester-day.

The visit of the battleship and its pur-pose have appealed to the imagination oithe people of Auckland, and there werea great many public manifestations of re-gret yesterday, the vessel and itsgallant officers and men took their depar-ture.

In spite of the heavy rain which fellpractically all day, many thousands cfpeople gathered on the various wharvesand along the waterfront, and others- onhigh buildings in the city, to give theadmiral and his officers aid crevr a parti-cularly enthusiastic send-off. although thefarewells were tinged with considerableregret.

Admiral and Lady Jellicoe in particular.have found their way into the hearts ofthe people of this country, and they havecarried away with them universal goodwishes, and hundreds of mascots of goodluck.

During yesterday morning a number ofofficial callers on the admiral includedthe deputy-mayor, Mr. A. J. Entric&n;-Colonel H. R. Potter, officer commandingthe Auckland military district; the chair-man of the Harbour Board, Mr. H. D.Heather; the Mayor of Devonport, Mr.H. S. W. King; the Mayor of Onehunga,Mr. J. Park; the president of the NavyLeague, Mr. A. M. Ferguson, and manyother military officers and prominent citi-zens. The admiral devoted a portion ofthe morning to the preparation of hisofficial report, which has now been com-pleted.

Sailors and the Fair Sex.So far as the British Jack Tar is con-,

cerned, it is proverbial that the sailor hasa lass in every port. The men of theNew Zealand have individually made ahost of friends in Auckland, and yester-day many affectionate farewells took place

| on the wharf.The officers, too, had many good-byes

to say, and it was evident on all sidesthat the admiral's apparent jocular re-mark at one "of the first public functionsin Auckland, that New Zealand girlswere finding favour in the eyes of officersand men contained more than a modicumof truth.

The original hour of sailing was fixedfor 2 p.m., but it was subsequentlyaltered to half-an-hour later. Long be-fore this time large crowds gathered onthe wharf at which the battle-cruiser wasberthed. There were a number of Maoris,belonging to the Onehunga district. In theforenoon they had been allowed on board,but after leaving the ship they remainedon'the wharf.

Maori Songs of Farewell.As the hour for departure drew near,

the Maoris sang some of their nativesongs and plaintive chants, and somewell-known choruses, concluding with anenergetic haka. Their audience was thealmost entire ship's company, some of themembers of which, not to be outdone,gave their version of a haka, armed withbrooms and other art.cles of utility to befound on board a man-of-war. The ship'scompany also responded' with the chorusof " Good Bye-ee."

An interchange of keepsakes took placefrom ship to shore, sailor's cap-bands,bearing the name of the battle-cruiser,"being given in exchange for poi-balls.

Prominent on the bulletin board of the.improvised clubroom on the wharf waswritten. "Kupai Haere Fa"—" Good-bye."

Shortly after two o'clock the members'of the ship's company mustered at theirstations, preparatory to casting-off themooring lines. The officers took up theirpositions on the quarter-deck and on thebridge, and the marines' band assembledon the quarter-deck. Just bsforo 2.30o'clock the gangways were loosened, andthe last of the mooring ropes were cast-offshortly afterwards. The sliip's bandstruck up, "Auld Lang Syne, followedby "Pack Up Your Troubles," and as theship slowly moved away from the wharf,resounding cheers were given by the largecrowd ashore.

Cheers for the Dominion.~* When the New Zealand was severalyards away from the wharf one of theofficers, speaking through a megaphone,called on the ship's company for threecheers for New Zealand, and these weregiven with enthusiasm by the snip's com*pany.

The Admiral and Lady Jellicoe took upa position on the signal bridge, andwaved good-bye.

The New Zealand, stern first, quicklydrew from between the wharves andabreast of King's Wharf, slowly turned.

' The warship then dipped her ensign inanswer to the lowering of the white

1 ensign from the flagpole at the hospital,: this having been arranged as the "good-

' bye " of the Navy League, and com-; menced her voyage to Suva.

' Many hundreds of people waited till the <. battle-cruiser bad passed from sight round

1 the North Head.1 After visiting Suva, the New Zealand

' will proceed to Fiji. Samoa, Vancouver.1 Panama Canal, Jamaica, Trinidad, Rio de| Janeiro, Capetown. Zanzibar, Aden, Suez,

and, via the Mediterranean, to England.* The ship is due at Portsmouth on May 1,1920.

CITIZENS' PRESENTATIONS.

A GREENSTONE SPECIMEN.

ADMIRAL'S APPRECIATION.Presentations were made id Admiral

Lord Jellicoe and Lady Jellicoe, on be-half of the citizens, prior to the 'departureof the New Zealand yesterday. Shortlybefore mid-day, the Deputy-Mayor, Mr.A. J. Entrican, the chairman of the Har-bour Board, Mr. H. D. Heather, membersof the Citizens' Reception Committee,and the town clerk, Mr. H. W. Wilson,waited upon the admiral on board thebattle-cruiser, and carried out the agrue-able duty. '

The gift to Lady Jellicoe from thecitizens was a portfolio of photographicviews of New Zealand. To Lord Jellicoewas presented a fine specimen of NewZealand greenstone.

In accepting these parting gifts fromtb-? people of Auckland the admiral ex-pressed the warmest appreciation 01 them.He assured the representatives of thecitizens that they were not necessary toremind Lady Jellicoe and hunsel* of theexceedingly pleasant time they had en-joyed in the Dominion and in Auckland.The greenstone presented to himselfwould become an heirloom in his family,and he especially prized it as being partof New Zealand itself. In conclusion,Lord Jellicoe expressed the hope thatLady Jellicoe and himself might someday re-visit this country.

REVIEW BY MR. MASSEY.

SETTLEMENT OF SOLDIERS.[BY telegraph.—special reporter.]

WELLINGTON, Friday.A brief statement regarding loans and

soldier settlement was made by the PrimeMinister to-night at the conclusion of thedebate on the Financial Statement.

Mr. Massey said in regard to the amountof borrowing to be undertaken in the nexttwelve months, that the whole sum was£30,226,000, which seemed a very for-midable total, but investigation showedthat in this sum was included £12,500,000accumulated surpluses, £10,000,000 al-ready being raised, cash in hand andimprest over £7,000,000, it wouldthus be seen that almost thewhole sum was provided for. Hedid not think it would be necessary toraise another loan before September 1,1920. He believed that they would getpractically the whole of *he £10,000,000at present open for subscription. He didnot know quite how the loan stood atpresent. :

There was still about a week to go, andit was the last week which counted.

Experience in England and Australiaallowed that it was difficult to raise thewhole of the loans now that the war wasover and the enthusiasm of the war periodhad largely gone.

When the war expenditure ceased, andhe hoped that would be soon, there wouldbe no more compulsory lending, and therewould be no more loans free of income tax.

Regarding the settlement of returnedsoldiers, there was an Impression thathnge sums had been spent in buying pri-vate estates. This was not so.

The total amount so spent was£2,500,000. Of the lands settled, 589,275acres were various grades of Crown land,288,000 acres of private estates, and274,000 acres comprised of single proper-ties, purchased at the specific request ofsoldiers.

APPROVAL BY COUNCIL.

AMENDED BILL PASSED.[»Y TELEGRAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

WELLINGTON. Friday.Tho Women's Bights Bill was again

before the Legislative Council to-day,when, at his own request, the Hon. J.MacGregor's motion that the ruling ofthe Speaker in refusing the amendmentproposed by him on the second reading ofthe Bill be dissented from was dischargedfrom the Order Paper.

The leader of the Council, Sir FrancisBell, moved the third reading of the Bill.

The Hon. J. T. Paul (Dunedin) pointedout that the Council, bypassing the Legis-lative Council Act, 1914, had said that assoon as the House of Representatives ad-mitted women so soon would the Counciladmit them, either by nomination or byelection. Therefore 'the "Governmentought to introduce to the council immedi-ately a measure to give effect to thispromise.

The Hon. W. Earnshaw (Wellington)said that as the Government had so man-date from the peopleon the subject such aradical change to the constitution shouldnot have bean introduced yet.

The Hon. Te Heuheu Tukino (Kakahi)opposed the Bill as being against the tra-ditions of his race.

Sir France Bell, replying to Mr.Paul's contention, said the latter badmisunderstood the clause of the Legis-lative Council Act he had quoted. Theclause referred to set forth that in givencircumstances women should be eligiblefor nomination and election, not nomina-tion or election to the Council. Nomina-tion was not used . colloquially in theclause to mean " appointment." but in itsproper meaning of nomination prior toelection. The Legislative Act, 1914, con-taining th© clause, he also reminded mem-bers, was not yet operative, and was notto be operative until one year after theproclamation issued by the Governor-General.

The third reading was carried by 19votes to 3, and the Bill was passed.

The Women's Bights Bill as passed bythe Legislative Council was amended inthe Upper House, in order that its pro.visions should apply to the House ofRepresentatives only.

In all his experience as a wharf-lumperhe had never seen cargo in such a badstate as regards its leaking condition.Some of the cases were completely empty.Chief-Detective Ilveney: Did you noticeany benzine on the wharf where it wag

put in the slings?Witness: It was fairly wet all roundwhere we were working;

. In reply to a question, witness said aman named Nolan appeared to be incharge of the men working in the hold.He had nothing to do with the placing ofthe cases in the slings. Witness wastally clerk for the Railway Department inconnection with th.a loading. Some caseswere rejected by Nolan, and sent up ondeck. They were placed on both sides,and became part of the deck cargo. Someof them were still leaking. Both the captainand mate were there. One or the other

was present throughout the day.

Chief Officer's Instructions.The chief officer gave him instructions

that under no conditions were any leakycases to be put in the hatches. He par-ticularly stressed the after-hatch. Thecaptain had told the mate to tell the menthis, and to the best of their ability theytried to carry out these instructions.

Continuing, witness said the ploughswere placed on the near forward hatch.When the loading started a red flag washoisted, and a notice-board was put upforbidding smoking or naked lights in ornear the ship. Only four leaky cases werbrejected from the after-hatch. .No. 1hatch was in a bad state righa through.He could not give numbers, .but aboutIS per cent, of the cargo in No. 1 hatchconsisted of leaky cases. These caseswere rejected and sent on deck. No caseswere sent on shore. They all were lefton deck, and went away with the ship.

" One Leaky Case to a Sling."To Mr. Buchanan: He could not say

whether any cases had been standing intrucks before gopg on the Tainui. Hehad no responsibility to the Railway De-partment in connection with leaky cases.Only good cases were put in the afterhatch, the" others went forward afterward*.

, There was an average of about one leakycase in every sling.

Witness said he was quite clear that themate gave all the instructions he possiblycould about the matter. It was for thestevedores who were stowing to send leakycases up on deck,

Thomas Faull gave similar" evidence.In cross-examination he said that Mr.

Newfield, the seamen's delegate, who waswatching the loading operations for atime, remarked on the leaky condition ofthe cases. In witness's opinion the stateof the cargo was very bad.

Hot Sufficient Ventilation.Charles Ask well Benton, watersider,

gave evidence practically corroboratingthat of the previous witnesses. He saidthat the forward hatch looked all right,but there was not sufficient ventilation,seeing that benzine was being carried.He would have signed on the Tainui hadhe been in seed of a job.

The Coroner : Supposing there hadbeen a leakage, was there any chance of'the benzine running to another part ofthe ship?

Witness : As far as I could see it wouldrun jjnder the stokehold.

The Coroner : The reason why I askthe question is because the fireman onwatch at the time the boat caught firewas the only one of those whose bodieswere recovered whose face was singed.

Theodore Neilson, who was workingin No. 1 hatch, said he had sent leakycases up on deck. Some were wet, butthey may not have been leaking. Aftercompleting No. 1 hatch he went to theafter-hatch. Nolan gave them strict in-structions not to take any cases in thathold if they were leaking. He thoughtthe vessel was in a safe condition whenloading was completed, and would havegone in the vessel himself if he hadwanted to. i

On a trip to Timaru immediately beforethe disaster, Captain Wilcox, assistantmarine superintendent, had ordered theafter-hatch to be kept clear of benzine,and the vessel went down to Timaru withthat hold empty.

A Prophetic Remark.Andrew Anderson, launch-owner, said

he saw a shower of motor-spirit or waterfailing from a sling of cases being hoistedinto the Tainui, and made the remark thatthe boat would i»ot get to its destination.There was always danger in carryingleaking tins as deck cargo in boats wherethere was a coal fire.

Alexander Kuus deposed that the cargoput into the Tainui was leaking more thanhe had seen in the case of other cargoesof motor-spirits. They did not act onNolan's instructions not to stow in theafter-hatch any cases showing signs ofleakage. About 75 cases, which could notbe stowed on deck, had, by the captain'sorders, been placed in No. 2 hold. Theywere nearly all wet but six were sent backto the deck. In his opinion the bulkheadwas not much good. It had a lot ofholes in it. The hold was not in a fitcondition to take the last 75 cases. Wil-liams, one of the Tainui's seamen, toldhim he did pot think he would sleep atnight. There were too many fumes.There was no danger from the deck cargo.

In reply to the coroner, witness saidthe fumes might escape through the holesin the bulkhead into the bilge and thenrun along to the engineroom.

An Officer's Opinion.Herbert Fitzwater, formerly officer on

the Mararoa, stated that he saw the ben-zine being loaded into the Tainui, and inconsequence of the leakage remarked thathe would be very sorry to go to sea insuch a boat, and that if he had any controlin the matter he would move the cargo.Other evidence as to the leaky natureof the cargo having been heard, the in-quest was adjourned till Tuesday.

The police have seven more witnesses tocall.The nautical inquiry into the loss ofthe Tainui has been postponed to Ootober10. Mr. S. E. McCarthy, S.M., will pre-

side.

PARLIAMENT.HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. j

DEBATE ON THE BUDGET.' v

A CONCLUSION REACHED.[fly TEMSGRAI'H.— association.}

WELLINGTON, Friday.The House of Representatives met at

2.30 p.m.Mr. R. Scott (Otago Central) gave

notice of intention to introduce the TaieriLand Drainage Bill.

The debate on the Budget was resumedby Mr. C. J. Talbot (Temuka), whourged economy in connection with publicexpenditure. •

Mr. G. R. Sykes (Masterton) defendedthe Government's proposals tor eoldiersettlement. The effect of the speeches bySir Joseph Ward and Mr. H. E. Holland(Grey) might be unfortunate, in that theymight discourage the men.

Mr. J. T. M. Hornsby (Wairarapa)agreed with the suggestions made for anincrease in death duties, but thought thesuggestions had come too late.

Continuing, he criticised the extremedemands of. the extreme section of theLabour Party. He read quotations fromthe speeches of Labour. leaders at therecent conference to show that the realobjective of the party was armed force,if necessary, to dispossess the people whohad property in this country. The soonerthe people of this Dominion realised thefact the. better.

Mr. R. P." Hudson (Motueka) said therewas a cry of "keep the cradles full," butthe fact was that conditions in connectionwith maternity homes were prohibitive tomany people.

Sir J. Ward Criticised.When the-House resumed at 7.30 p.m.the Hon. J. B. Hine (Stratford) chjded

Sir John Findlay with pointing out theevils of our currency system but provid.ing no remedy. Sir Joseph Ward hadasked when they were going back tonormal conditions, but he (the speaker)wanted to know what was meant bynormal.

Did Sir Joseph suppose they were goingback to pre-war conditions? Such couldnever be the case, because they were en-tering what had been called a "new era,"when they would have to face higherwages and higher values. It was absurdto suppose that unless they got back tonormal conditions» in this new era it wasgoing to be detrimental to the country.

Sir Joseph Ward interjected that he didnot expect to get back to normal fora very long time.

On the subject of borrowing the speakertwitted Sir Joseph Ward with inconsist-ency' in advocating internal borrowing inhis August manifesto, and condemning itin his Budget speech.

Short Shrift for Agitators.

Continuing, Mr. Hine said he favouredthe nationalisation of the mines, with abonus for increased production, ratherthan profit-sharing, and at the risk ofbeing in advance of the times, be thoughtthey should have a law making strikes andlockouts illegal, while he would deal withstrike promoters summarily, and havethem out of the country in double quicktime.

Mr. Hine accused Sir Joseph Ward ofdeserting the National Government, andso losing the chance of imposing taxationon the shoulders of those who ought tobear it.

When the policy of the Governmentwas brought down, the country wouldrecognise that it was well devised forthe benefit not of one class, but of every-one.

Mr. S. G. Smith (Taranaki) dealt with theGovernment's educational, hydro-electrio,and soldiers' settlement proposals, mainlyfrom the Taranaki point of view.

Northern Members Speak.

Mr. J. Payne (Grey Lynn) consideredthe policy of the late Minister lor Financein setting up a sinking fund in Englandwas sound, because in the present un-settled state of the world no'one couldtell whether the prices of their productswould fall, and they roust be preparedfor such an emergency.

Mr. W. T. Jennings (Taumarunui) -ot-tered a warning against the land specula-tion now going on. Otherwise they wouldhave, a repetition of the Australian landboom which hurst. There were 10,159registered land agents in the Dominionwho were living, not by working the land,but on profits of sales. One of them re-cently told him he had made £SOO in aweek on commission.

The debate was continued by Messrs.Rhodes (Thames) and Mandcr (Marsden).

At 12.50 Mr. Massey rose to reply,which he did very briefly.

Committee of Supply.The House then went into Committee

of Supply, and the first item, £43,010,for legislative departments, was passedafter Mr. Massey had given Sir JosephWard an assurance that he would makea statement later on in the session on thesubject of increasing members1 salaries forthe next Parliament, as he considered thepresent payment altogether inadequate.

The House rose at 12.58 a.m. till 7.30p.m. on Monday

LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.

BUSY DAY IN COURT.

MANY CHARGES HEARD.

SAILOR CHARGED WITH THEFT

INFORMATION DISMISSED.A steward of H.M.S. New Zealand,

David Butt (Mr. A. Moody) ranked asleading seaman, appeared before Mr. J.E. Wilson, S.M., x at the Police Court yes-terday to answer the charge of the theftof a number of pairs of sox, and a pair ofbrushes, valued at £7, the property of aboarder in the Star Hotel. Accuseddenied the charge, but admitted hayingbeen found in possession of the articlesmentioned.

Chief-Detective McMahon said that theaccused stayed at the Star Hotel on Wed-nesday night, and entered the room of aboarder. The occupant was disturbed,and he hurriedly left. The articles men-tioned in the charge were missed, andwere subsequently found in possession ofthe accused by Detective Cumming on theship. The accused was then wearing apair of the missing sox.

Evidence was given by Detective Cum-ming bearing out the chief-detectivesstatement.

Mr. Moody said that accused's explana-tion of the matter was that he had beendrinking heavily on the evening in ques-tion, and when he returned to the shipabout five o'clock the following morninghe discovered that he had the sox andbrushes in his pocket, but could not re-member how they had come into hwpossession. He had intended returningthem to the hotel, but had not the oppor-tunity to do so before he was interviewedby the detective. He said that the ac-cused had the highest possible characterin the service, and had been recommendedfor promotion. Counsel made a strongappeal that a conviction should not berecorded against the accused, as it wouldruin hie prospects in the service.

The accused gave evidence on his ownbehalf on the lines of counsel's statement.

Cross-examined, he admitted that whenarrested he was wearing a pair of thesox that had been taken. He adhered tothe statement that he could not rememberhow ha had come into possession of thearticles.

A number of the accused's shipmatesgave evidence that he had returned to theship early on Thursday morning, and ap-peared to have been drinking. The sub-lieutenant under whom the accused servedsaid the latter had the highest characterit was possible to obtain in the service.He himself had recommended the-man forpromotion, and knew that he was notaddicted to drink.

The licensee of the hotel gave evidencethat the accused, who bad booked a bedat the hotel early in the evening, hadtaken about half-a-dozen assorted drinksbefore going upstairs to bed, but hadseemed to he quite sober.

The magistrate said that the accused'sexcellent record weighed considerably inhie favour, and dismissed the charge,accused's counsel undertaking to pay thecosts of the proceedings and return thearticles found in his possession.

LIQUOR AFTER HOURS.The licensee of the Queen's Ferry Hotel

Andrew Beggs (Mr. R. McVeagb) pleadedguilty to having committed a breach ofthe war regulations by supplying WilliamJames Rogers and James Farrar withliquor after hours. The two latter werecharged with complicity in the breach.

Sub-InspectorWohlmannsaid that it wasnot suggested that Beggs had soldliquor. The defendant Rogers had donesome printing work for Beggs, and calledto see him about it. The other defendanthad called to see the licensee about a job.The licensee had invited th© men to have Ia drink in the bar, and they were havingit together when the police entered.

Counsel for the defendants said thatthe facte as stated by the sub-inspectorwere correct. He added that had thedrink been taken in an adjoining roomno offence would have been committed^

The magistrate said that evidently theoffence had been committed in ignorance,but the licensee should have known thelaw. All three defendants were fined 20sand costs.

UNPROVOKED ASSAULT.A charge of having assaulted Steven

Cunningham by striking him on the headwith an iron bolt was preferred against aseafaring man named John Connors aliasMcGowan, who made a rambling state-ment when asked to plead. The policeevidence showed that the accused hadcommitted the assault in a hotel withoutprovocation. Sub-Inspeotor Wohlmannsaid that the accused appeared to he some-what queer. Connors was convicted andsentenced to 14 days' imprisonment withhard labour.

FIGHTING IN THE STREET.EdWard Wylds and Frederick Mandeno

pleaded not guilty to a charge of havingused threatening behaviour in a publicplace, but Mandeno admitted havingpushed his mate over "for fun." Thepolice evidence was that the men werefighting in. Custom Street on the previousevening. Both were convicted and fined£1 and costs, or in default three days'imprisonment with hard dabour.

AN IMPRINT MISSING. *

William Morton (Mr. Hackett), whoadmitted having printed a chart andissued it without having placed his im-print on it, was fined £5 and costs 7s.

VICTIM OF LAZINESS.Roger James Coyle, who admitted being

an idle and disorderly person, and thathe had no lawful visible means of support,was stated by Sub-InspectorWohlmann tobe a victim of dirt and laziness. He hadrecently been released from gaol afterserving a sentence for a similar offence.Accused was sentenced to a month's im-prisonment with hard labour.

MISCELLANEOUS CASES.Albert Morris, charged with drunken-

ness, and with having committed an in-decent act, admitted the former charge,and said he could not remember anythingabout the other charge. He was con-victed *nd discharged on the first charge,and ordered to come up for sentence whencalled upon within three months. Theaccused also consented to the issuing of aprohibition order against himself.

Two youths aged 18, Bertram Kirbyand James W. Quintal, employed on theNtrapuhi, admitted having embezzled fivebottles of wine on board the • vessel.Chief-Detective 'McMahon stated that theworst feature of the theft was that thewine was taken from a sling of cargo,which was left in the vessel by the menwho were unloading it, and suspicionwould have been directed against thesemen if the offenders had not been dis-covered.

The magistrate remanded the youths forsentence till Tuesday, in order that in-quiries about them could be made.Six victims of insobriety who appeared

for the first time were convicted and dis-charged, and three others forfeited theirbail of 10s each. Charles Arthur Sullivan,for a third offence within the statutoryperiod, was fined 20s and prohibited.

SOLDIER ATHLETES.

NEW ZEALANSERS' RECORD.

PERFORMANCES DURING WAR.

SOME NOTABLE SUCCESSES.Since the "All Black" Rugby team

made their tour of "England in 1995,NewZealand has had .. a reputation

„in -4he

athletic world. During the war this hasbeen greatly enhanced, for not only havethe representatives of the Dominionproved their superiority at Rugby* but ina number of other branches of sport theydemonstrated that they were equallybrilliant.

In 1916, after the Galiipoli campaign,the New ZeaJanders were transferred fromEgypt to France, and a training depotfor the reception of reinforcements fromthe Dominion was established at Sling,near Salisbury, England. A depot formen discharged from hospital and fit fortraining was also opened at Cod ford. Itwas, however, from the former that thefirst serious efforts in. connection withRugby were made, when, toward the endof 1916 and early in 1917, matches werearranged with the Welshmen, at Cardiffand towansea. .

'

The games were very interesting, andthe teams put in the held by Welshmenproved as doughty as the one that de-feated the "All Blacks." Some reallygood games resulted, and "*• teams re-presenting Wales more than held then-own.

' Value of Athletics is TrainingThe value of athletics as a moans to

training began to occupy the attention ofthe authorities at this time, and footballand athletic sporty generally were givenevery encouragement, for it was foundthat they appealed to the temperament ofthe New Zealander much more than" bull-rings," and, in a large measure,attained the same object-keeping themen fit. So every day, particularly onSaturdays, recreational training found aprominent place in the syllabus.

Later, Sling was found to be too smallto accommodate the varous units of theExpeditionary Force, and other campswere utilised. The artillery went toEweshot, near Aldershot, the machine-gunners to ' Grantham, Engineers toBrightling-on-Sea, and the Rifle Brigadeto Brockton, In the course of time theNew Zealanders were playing theirnational game over the greater part ofsouthern England, and eventually theybegan to go further afield. They soonshowed that they had teams, andtheir play attracted a lot of attention.

In France football and athletics werealso fostered. Divisional teams met withsuccess when they played the French re-presentatives at Pans. The last divisionaltournament was held at Authie, behindHebuterne, in June, 1918, and despite thefact that the German shells were burstingnot very far away, the programme wascarried through, and some really goodperformances were registered.

Inter-Allied Football Tourney.After the armistice had been signed a

divisional representative football teamwas sent to Paris, and again the French-men were defeated.Early this year an inter-allied footballtournament was held in England, and

after a series of strenuous games theNew Zealand Trench team won the King'sCup. During the matches they werebeaten by the Australians only. Subse-quently they defeated France, and in Maylast beat the Welshmen by 6 points to 3.The team then visited South Africa, andplayed thirteen matches. The secondmatch of the tour, against Capetown, wasdrawn, and subsequently Griqualand,Western Provinces, and a" combined teamfrom the Capetown and Stellenbosch Uni-versities defeated the New Zealanders.

Flat Races and Hurdling.In athletics the Dominion representa-tives showed up prominently. Toward the

end of 1918 a sports meeting, open toColonial, British and Allied troops washeld at Glasgow. A challenge shield pre-sented by Sir William Beardsmore, to beheld by the country scoring most pointsin the lOOyds} 220yds, 440yds, tfcOyds,one mile, hurdles, high jump, long jump,and relay race, was won by New Zea-land. Teams representing England, Scot-land, Ireland, Belgium, Scandinavia, Aus-tralia and Canada competed. SergeantJ. L. Mason and Private W. L. Lindsay-were among the New Zealand represen-tatives, the former winning the mile andhalf-mile events.

At the inter-allied military games heldin Paris in June, Mason, Lindsay, andWilson showed up prominently. Masonwon the 800 metres race, and Lindsay' the200 metres race. They both won heats inseveral other events. Wilson and Liltonfinished second and third respectively inthe 400 metres races, and the former wasthird in the 110 metres' hurdles, jtved-dell was prominent in a heat in the last-named event.

At Stamford Bridge, England, in July,the New Zealanders were again conspicu- ,ous. Wilson won the 120 yards hurdles,with Keddell third, and Lindsay ransecond in the 100 yards, going onto a service tournament at Aldershot,Sergeant Mason won the half-milein 2mins 0 3-ss, a time which hasonly twice been beaten in BritishArmy records. Wilson won the hurdlerace.

New Zealand is supplying four out ofthe 26 selections in eleven events at theforthcoming army championships..

Successful Oarsmanship.Great excitement was caused when theNew Zealanders won the eight-oared raceon the Seine, France, in April, defeatingthe Americans, mostly Harvard and Yale

College men, by half-a-length. The othercontestants were France, Portugal, andNewfoundland.At Henley,, in July, D. Hadfield, theAuckland sculler, won the KingswoodSculls, An inter-allied regatta was sub-

sequently held in Paris. Hadfield won thesingle sculls, New Zealand crewfinished third in the eight-oared face,being beaten by Cambridge and Aus-tralia.

The Official Record.The following is the official record ofNew Zealand oarsmen selected from the

Expeditionary Force, at various regattasin England and France :

Service eights, six starts, fivewing, one second; service fours, fourstarts, four wins; single sculls, fourstarts, four wins. In the last-namedevents D. C. Hadfield represented NewZealand, and beat Kinnear, winner at thelast Olympic games, and Priddle, a lead-ing Australian professional.

1919. Paris: Won internationalservice eights, three Ancklanders in thecrew, namely, White (No. 2), Rutledce(No. 6), and Hadfield (No. 7* beltAmerica (second), France (third) New-foundland (fourth). At Mario*, England-Won service eights. Hadfield won singlesculls. At Henley, England: Hadfieldwon the Kingswood Cup for the championamateur sculler in the Allied armiesEights crew was beaten by CambridgeUniversity m heat. At Paris, second re-gatta: New Zealand was the only countryto qualify for the final in all events. Had-field won the international single scullsbeating the representatives of Italy'B ranee, America, Belgium, England andAustralia. New Zealand crews third it,the eights and third in the fours.In a letter covering this record Lieu-tenant-Colonel G. Griffiths, officer com-manding the New Zealand Command De-pot, Codford, England, wrote to thepresident of the New Zealand AmateurKowmg Association, as an old member of■ the council of that body, in the followingterms:-- "Staff-sergeant Blammed, ofAuckland, recommended that we. shouldstart a rowing club in this depot. Ac-cordingly, through the medium of thedepot orders, I (Jailed for men with roVineexperience, and from the names submit-ted had no difficulty in selecting a crewto send to London for training for a fort-night, which we did, and they receivedthe use of the plant and boathouse, andthe cordial hospitality of the ThamesRowmg Club. Owing to the very marked

success? of this crew, I - taoagh.fc-.it ad-.jvisable that the New Zealand Assertion.should keep a record of their performances,and it is for this, reason that I am en-dosing their record. X had the pleasureof seeing the men rowing at the «g*tta.I discussed their ability ' with " many otthe leading rowing men of this <**nW>and their unanimous opinion was that toeeight would have beaten any eight theyhad seen on the waters over cere. . ■ #

"It is particularly gratifying, consideringthat the men were just picked out ontheir New Zealand performances alone,and it also bears out the opinion of manyrowing men that oarsmen from New Zea-land would do very well in this country.I trust that the association will keep be-fore it the idea of sending crews Hometo compete in the regattas in England atsome future date. From my knowledge ofrowing in New Zealand, and from what*I have seen elsewhere, I am satisfied thatwe can turn out a representative crewwhich will (areata as favourable an «»|,E,«-

sion of New Zealand sportsmen as did theAll Black football team."

Prizewinners at Bialey.

i The New Zealanders proved that thescould handle a rifle with anyone duringthe war, and when it came to target-shooting at Bialey, in J£ngl*nd, in July,the Dominion representatives were most1conspicuous throughout. In the firstday's sweepstakes the 200yds e9id dOOydswere won by Lieutenant Soler, of Marion,and at the 500vds NewZealanders took fourout of the five prises. They finished thirdin the shoot for the Cbeylesmore Cup, andSergeant Belk {Auckland) won the 500ydssweepstake with 24 out of a possible 25.In the match for the Kolapore Cap, whichwa© once held by New Zealand, the teamfinished fifth. Sergeant Loveday (Ohura)won the King's Prize, and Sergeant. Belkwas 36th. New Zealand was fourth, forthe Mackinnon Cup, and occupied a simi-lar position in the Empire Gup matches,

FISH SUPPLIES SHORT.

DUE TO HEAVY WEATHER.

TRAWLING OFTEN IMPOSSIBLE.

COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION.Fish is in short supply in Auckland at

present. What little fresh fish has beenbrought to town by the trawlers at sentin by the line fishermen has been quicklydisposed of. Most people have beenobliged to rely upon the supplies from thecoring rooms.

The reason for tie scarcity is theboisterous weather which has been ex-perienced on the trawling grounds for thepast few days. The heavy seas have wadetrawling almost impossible, arid several ofthe fishing-boats ■ have returned to ,portwith only a small proportion of theirbaskets filled.

A prominent dealer stated yesterdaythat several of the gulf trawlers had beenObliged to anchor under the lee of the landduring the past day or two, and con-sequently were unable to make anycatches. He recalled the fact that theFisheries Commission, which held its sit-tings in Auckland a few months ago, hadrecommended that in rough weather,when the usual grounds were un-workable, trawlers should be allowedto operate in a small shelteredarea between Kawau Island and themainland, but stated that the recom-mendation had not .been acted upon. ' "Ifwe had been able"to work in that shel-tered area during the past few days," besaid, "the amount fish on the Aucklandmarket this Week Would probably have

j been increased by anything up to 15 tons.*'

GRAVES ON GALLIPOLI.IDENTIFICATION problem.

MOEE INFDEMATrON WANTED.[bt TEUSWBLLg'sL—OWN COXBE3POKUEST.]

WELIiIHGTON, Friday. .Since the conclusion of the Gallipali

campaign, the military authorities havebeen collecting all available informationconcerning the burial of New Zealanderson the peninsula.

After the armistice a special party fromthe> Canterbury Mounted Rifles visitedGallipoli for the purpose of locating gravesand ensuring the permanence of identifica-tion marks. Care was taken to-locate theburial spots by exact markings and thetaking of bearings, and everything possible■was done to identify the individual graves.The result of this visit was communicatedto the Imperial Graves Commission and tothe New Zealand authorities.

Now that all the official data has »e«ngot together, it is evident that so far asthe identification of individual graves isconcerned, there is unfortunately a void tofill in the records. A cablegram wasrecently received from the New ZealandRecords Office in Egypt stating that manygraves which have been located on Galli-poh are known to contain the bodies ofN|w Zealanders, bat their names cannotbe ascertained. It is believed that someof these graves could be identified frominfprmation in the possession of soldiersand next of kin in New Zealand.

Consequently the officer in charge ofBase Records, Wellington, is endeavouringto collect any facts or photographs whichcan be given to him in New Zealandregarding the burying places of individuals,as this will in many cases enable the graveto be definitely marked. No matter howmeagre, information of this kind will bewelcomed, and will be forwarded to theGraves Registration Unit in Egypt foraction to be taken.

Next of kin who know where a soldierrelative has been buried should send thisinformation to Base Records, and soldierswho remember where friends ware buriedshould follow the same course, as they willthus be able to afford to many people inNew Zealand the consolation of knowingthat the gravis of one who fell in thatcampaign will be appropriately markedand preserved for all time as a memorial

I of the sacrifice made.

ARGUMENTS LEAD TO LAW.

INFORMATION DISMISSED. IA complaint by Thomas Mulcahy against

Frederick Waldron that the latter usedthreatening behaviour towards him washeard by Mr. J. E. Wilson, S.M., at thePolice Court yesterday.

The evidence disclosed that the complain-ant, who had done service in the navyduring the war, and after being dischargedotoj; to chest trouble had done home ser-vice m New Zealand, boarded with themother of the defendant. The latter alsolived with his mother, and arguments hadoccasionally taken place between the twomen. It was alleged that the defendanthad expressed double about the complain-ant having been on active service and hadstated that some day a "fair dinkumdigger** would " clean up" the com-plainant.

The defendant admitted having hadarguments with the complainant, butstated that the latter frequently camehome under the influence of liquor andwas in the habit of raising arguments. Hodenied having insulted the complainant or

' that he had made use of the words com-I plained of.

The magistrate dismissed the case withcosts against the complainant.

ELECTRICITY IN THE HOME.

I read both the Herald's report of Mr.Vernon's lecture and also Mr. Lowe'sletter with considerable interest, andmust say I think Mr. Lowe's personalremark concerning Mr. Vernon is, to saythe least, extremely bad form.

Mr. Vernon made no reference to thecomparative costs of the uses of gas andelectricity, but simply spoke of theadvantages, comfort and convenience tobe derived by using electrical domesticappliances aa are now being largely usedall over the world.

Mr. Lowe quotes figures relating toefficiencies of the comparative, methods,and in reply to these I will simply statea few facts relating to conditions inChristchurch, obtained through the adop-tion of the Lake Coleridge supply, andfrom which I will leave the public tojudge for themselves.

Before the lake supply was broughtinto Chrißtchurch and the surroundingdistricts about 1000 h.p. in gas engineswas in use, but now only 50 h.p. is used,the balance being taken up with electricmotors. Why? Because it pays.

I might mention that a number of gasengines were broken up and sold as scrapbecause there was no sale for them.Also a considerable number of gas en-gines, easily another 1000 h.p., runningon producer gas, which is reckoned to beabout one-fourth of the cost of coal gas.I think the last of these were taken outa few months ago, and they have all beenreplaced with motors. Why? Because itpays.

Regarding lighting. Electric right hassuperseded gas in all the principal ware-houses but one. Why? Just the samereason.

It is worthy of note, tins one ware-house has now several electric motorsrunning in various departments.

Concerning electric domestic appliances.In my own house of 5 rooms we did thecooking, ironing, lighting, heated thehouse water service, used radiators, andthe average cost per month was not morethan sixteen shillings. There were 20houses at Lake Coleridge supplied in thesame way, and there are, in and aboutthe city, at least 30 houses where cookingby electricity is the only method used.There are dozens of houses where thelighting bill does not exceed 3s permonth, including the cost of using theelectric iron. .

I just mention the above to show whatthe Lake Coleridge scheme has done forChristchurch, and I have not theslightest doubt that Auckland will veryBoon be in the same happy position.

A STRANGE FACT ABOUT INDIGES-TION.

A strange fact about indigestion withwhich comparatively few people are ac-quainted is that nine times out of ten painin the stomach after eating is due tofood fermentation and acidity, which, as

I any doctor or chemist can tell you, iealmost instantly relieved by taking half ateaerpoonful of Bteurated Magnesia (powderform) in a little water immediately aftereating or whenever pain is felt. Yourmedical or pharmaceutical friend couldalso inform you that the reason of theefficacy of Bisurated Magnesia is sim-plicity itself. Bisurated Magnesia is anatural neutraliser and most deadly foeof acidity. It abhors acidity as natureabhors a vacuum, and seeks, instantly itcomes into contact with an acid, tonullify it and render it impotent, power-

! less, and totally incapable of the slightest: harm. That ie why so many thousands ofjpeople have good cause to praise Bisurated

| Magnesia, and why you should commenceJ taking it to-day. Bisurated Magnesia is! obtainable of chemists everywhere, andj full instructions are given on every bottle' If everyone would adopt this simple plan,

j indigestion, dyspepsia, sour stomach, gas,' and flatulence would soon be unknown.—(Advt.)

IN MEMORIAM.FALLEN IN BATTLE.

GBAVERSTAFEL SPUR.

HEROIC EFFORT RECALLED.

GALLANT NEW ZEALANDEES.To-day is the second anniversary of the

commencement of the Passchendaele opera-tions in Flanders, in which the New Zea-land troops took such a prominent part,and in which many Dominion soldiers fell.

The offensive commenced with the battleof Abraham Heights and Gravenstafel, onOctober 4, 1917, which was one of thegreat victories of the third Ypres cam-paign. This battle was a remarkablysuccessful one, resulting in the capture ofa large number of prisoners and an ad-vance of about 3000 yards. It was knownafter the successes of September 20, andSeptember 26, 1917, that the enemy was

i preparing a counter-stroke. The Britishcommand determined to forestall him, anddid so by a few minutes. The PrussianGuard was intercepted in its advance bythe Australians in No-Man's Land, andswept back by the colonials.

The New Zealanders and Australians,forming the greatest overseas force whichhas ever attacked an enemy, occupied thecentre of the battle-line from Gravenstafel

1 Spur and Abraham Heights to Broodseindeand Mo'enarelsthoek, flanked on the northby Scottish and English regiments, and on Ithe South by English troops.

The attack by the Dominion troops tookplace to the North of the Honiara rail-way. The muddy state of the country infront of them proved an almost insuper- |able obstacle, the swamp of the Hanne-beek, which stretched between the NewZealanders and the heights which wereth. ir objective, having been torn up bythe British gunfire. Crossing the levelground the men sunk to their knees, andwhen shell holes were encountered theywent almost waist deep into the mud.As they struggled gallantly over the half-mile of bog in the river valley, thebarrage went ahead of them, but by amagnificent effort they caught up. Hadthey lost the protection of the barragecompletely, disaster must have followed,but once having regained it they wentforward to victory.

Despite the resistence of the enemy,who had strongly manned this portion ofthe line, the troops pressed ahead, andafter carrying the redoubt at Otto Farm,which was bristling with machine guns,50 of which were captured, they attackedthe concrete defences of Van Menlan, onthe line between Abraham Heights andGravenstafel. This stronghold lasted onlyhalf an hour, and an advance was madeon Berlin Farm, above GrayernstafeL Twominutes' attention from the Stokes guns,brought up by the New Zealanders, re-duced the fortress, every German occu-pant being killed.

The defences of Gravenstafel Spur werestrengthened by innumerable " pill-boxes,"but these were systematically reduced and

• the Spur captured. The New Zealanders' then went beyond their objectives, and' crushed a heavy counter-attack. All the

New Zealand regiments were represented[ in the attack, and they took over 1000

prisoners.The New Zealand Army has every reason

to be proud of Gravenstafel. In a Betbattle, in which the enemy was foundfully prepared, and against appalling ohrstacles. the Dominion troops displayedan indomitable spirit, and gained a vic-

. Tory which stands out as one of the mostnotable in the record of the New Zea-land Expeditionary Force. The victory,however, cost many lives. The "in me-moriam" notices published to-day remindus, not only of the Dominion's losses onthat day, .but also of the spirit of serviceand devotion to a noble cause, in whichthose young lives were given.

NOTES BY PHAETON.

TEL UNCERTAINTY OF RACING.In referring to a celebrated turf sur-

prise in the Old Country many years back"The Druid," one of the. romantic schooloi sporting writers, remarked, ** "Tb theglorious uncertainty that overhangs racingthat constitutes-its greatest charm." Thatview would,,I think, be generally ascribedto; but all th© same, not a feW, who setthemselves the task of endeavouring tofind winners, would 1 add that the uncer-tainty associated with "the sport of kings"is decidedly inconvenient and at timeshighly disconcerting. The surprise victoryregistered by the Australian importation,Some. Boy, in his initial display in Maori-land in the colours of his new owner, Mr.E. W, Alison, jon., at Avondale on Wednes-day last, caught many keen heads nap-ping, and! there is also some reason toaccept the view that even the immediateconnections of the bay son of Cyrus anaThe Tart entertained small hopes of see-ing him gallop first past the judge. Thefact that Some Boy bad accomplishedvery little work since bis arrival at jEllershe, consequent on a slight mishap 'that befell him while being landed fromthe I'ort Melbourne on the Bth alt., Liedthe effect of causing him to run np on I'-he .bulky side, and the sise 0! his middle- 'piece when he paraded in the birdcage at !Avondale on Wednesday last, it must besaid, seemed quite st'fEcient to cause hischance of seeing out what promised to be ,a solidly-run tone furlongs donbtlfuL It Ireally excited very little comment %hea 'the numbers on the totalisator dials there- 'fore revealed that in a field of 15 1there were only one of the contestantscarrying lees money than the Aus- |tralian importation. It requires but :a trrt lines to relate the historyof the race, for Some Boy early workedhis way into the lead, and there he re-mained throughout the race. When thefavourite. Gold Kip, came along with a; '<stiff challenge in the straight, excitedcries were heard, "The chestnut's got ;him !"' This was not however fulfilled. 'Soma Boy proved to be equal toall demands, and, finishing up his taskwith surprising dash, he won in fine styleby a length and a quarter. Wonderment•viva reflected ion many faces, as the clerkof the course galloped down to bring inSome Boy ana his rider, S. Henderson,an J the oft-quoted remark, "You nevercan tell till the numbers go up," it ishardly necessary to add, was heard inmany quarters. The victory of Some Boyis entitled to be entered up with the mostgenuine surprises associated with theAuckland turf, and it certainly furnisheson » of the most striking and interestingillustrations d the unexpected happeningin our raring that haß been recorded for aconsiderable time past.

SOME BOY.I'm was during a visit to New South

Wales in August last that Mr. E. W.Alison, jun.. effected the purchase of SomeBoy. The Australian horse had some de-cent performances to his credit, and it wasa four-figure amount that was mentionedwhen the question of buying came up.Eventually Mr. Alison closed for the pur-chase of S:>me Boy at £1000; and by thehorse winring a stake of £350 in his firstengagement. and by this amountbeing swelled by a portion of thelarge dividend paid over the same,Soma Boy Ea«? irobably repaid hisnew owner considerably more thanhalf the sum expended on his purchases-ine few. weeks back. Bred as he is it■would be a surprise were Some Boy notan attractive horse. There is much of thearistocrat about him, and that he relisheshie riicing there was pointed evidence whenhe came back to the birdcage at Avon-dale on Wednesday, carrying himself ina particularly jaunty fashion. With hisname associated with a highly interesting

•;rpri?o victory. Some Boy will be keptv. • !1 in the limelisrhc for some time, andtin' lines of his pedigree will no doubt beperused with interest. Such read asfollows : '

leading v ev«nta are the Derby, EpsomHandicap and Spring Slakes. 'The -with,dxawal of Bifcaroon from too Derbycreates a new situation, and by all accountsthe issue is now regarded aa very*' open.The New Zealand owned pair Surveyorand Rossini will probably figure amongstthe contestants; and tench curiosity isevinced as to whether they will provetheir earlier displays'as three-year-olds tobe wrong. Surveyor is said to'havetrained on satisfactorily, and be is ex-petted to run a good race. The SpringStakes will probably find Gloaming on ihand, and, with Pottrel, Kennaquahair, !Cetignef Wolaroi, and Biplane all insplendid forta, a great race is tobe antici-pated, The fact of Gloaming having wonhis initial weight-fey-age engagement sug-Rests that be will be singled oat forspecial attention when backers get towork to-day in connection with too mileand a-half weight-fer-age race.

THE WHANGAREI MEETING.The very satisfactory character of the

nominations received by the WhangareiRacing Club in connection with the meet-ing to be held at Kensington Park onThursday and Friday next brought out in apointed form that the progressive spiritsengaged in fostering racing in that dis-trict had worked very hard, and it ishighly pleasing to not© such favourableprospects for a record meeting eventuat-ing in the northern district The meetingcan be depended upon to attract a largenumber of turfites to Whangarei, end itshould only require fine weather to bringabout some highly-interesting racing, andrecord figures under all headings to beentered up.

NOTES FROM EILERSURSignature, though entrusted with moot Isupport in the Kingsland Hurdles at jAvondale on Wednesday last, failed to!complete the course, the hurdle pastthe seven-furlong post proving dis-'astrous to him. At the time ofthe occurrence he was in tha lead withBenzine and looked to have a reasonablechance of success, but the latter was in

receipt of 271b from the son of St. Amansand certainly won in a fashion which sug-gested he may do even better when calledupon in the future.Marconi, who filled third berth in thehurdles event each day at Avondale, ishardly a back number yet awhile if he canbe kept sound. The eon of Sonlt has hadto be subjected to patient tactics, but ifha can bo kept up to solid work shouldbe a payable proposition towards the doseot the season.

Landslide proved that his AvondaleStakes victory was no Alike by concedingpoundage and defeat to the otherjuveniles ensued in the Nursery Handi-cap on Wednesday last. He was thefirst to single himself out in the Nursery,and never really looked like sufferingdefeat . from the rising of the barrier.Ever sine© figuring in the parade sprintat the hunt meeting, the son of Kenil--Elegance was kept. right up tosolid sprintinu, on which he evidentlythrived, for he raced true both days atthe suburban course, and should do wellon the turf for Mr. R. Alison.

W. Ryan, who rode Pierrot in {he Viho-tunu Welter at Avondale. is of opin'onthat the son of All B'ack-—Mimic reallybroke a lea before he fell. Ryan felt thehorse falter before be came down, but forwhich more serious consequences mayhave resulted.. As it was, it was the useof th« skull cap which saved the ridernamed from serious injury. He is stillfeelinsr the effects of the mishap, but for-tenatelv received no more than a seriousshaking, and though bedridden for acounle of days is now well on the way tocomplete-recovery. It is not to the creditof those concerned that the injured horse-man laid in the casnalty-rbom for alonger period than necessary before beingremoved to Iris home, and racing clubswould be well advised to move with allhaste m the matter of the purchase of theproposed motor-ambulance.Esthonia, who captured the AvondaleGuineas on Wednesday, won one race lustseason. He is a son of Elyeian—Baronia,and met with a kick at the post for hishack engagement at the hunt meetingthreeweeks back. His Taranaki owner-trainer.Mr. P. W. Scally, always had a sctionhe would peristal well in the classic, andwhen the three-year-old ran home in fronton Wednesday last he came in for a shareof congratulatory hand-shakes.

Some Boy bad got through practicallyno fast work since being taken in handat Ellerslie, but the fact that, he bad lM«nracing prior to leaving Sydney evidentlyplayed a part in"causing h'm to be awinner at Avondale on Wednesday. Thedividend he returned will prove a greatsurprise to those who know Some Boybest in Australia, and will probaKy provea great advertisement for the tota.isator.

On her display at Avondale, it seemsthat Sweet Core should be kept at sprintracing, and net persevered with in aneffort to make a stayer of her. Thedaughter of Malster showed- a deal ofspeed in the early stages of her engage-ments, but was done with when the busi-ness end of the journey came to be en-countered.

Vagabond may be expected to improvevastly with the racing indulged in atAvondale, and if token South to Riceartonfor the New Zealand Cup Meeting, shouldperform, creditably at that fixture.

Meltechikoff did not look as bright atAvondale on Wednesday as when he can-tested the Avondale Cup, and he failedto. repeat his good showing of Saturdaylast.

W. Ayre. who suffered painful injuriesto his foot by beim? crowded on fbe fencewhile riding Depredation in the AvondaleCurt expects to be sufficiently recoveredto take his place in the saddle atWhangarei next week.

Caricature was decidedly unfortunate innot registering a place in the NurseryHandicap at Avondale. on Wednesday, forafter being one of the last to move, .thedaughter of Absurd and Carmania threadedher way into fourth place, which wasactually within a length of the winner.This chestnut filly should be worth fol-lowing in her future engagements, forshe should be vastly improved by theracing indulged in at Avondale.

Uncle Ned made bis appearance in thePlumpton Handicap field on Wednesday,and, though not looking in his best coat,gave evidence during the running that heshould add further to his upkeep lateron in the eeason. The son of MarbleArch was well placed over the first mile,when bis impost began to tell, and hofinished about scventa.

HOCKEY.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.The 1919hockey season will bo concluded

this afternoon, when four games will beplayed on the Remuera grounds! The mostimportant is the senior championship play-off between College Rifles and MountEden, these teams having tied at the endof the second round. The game this after-noon should provide a good exhibition ofhockey, brimful oi interest and excitementfrom start to finish. Mount Eden willstart slightly favourites, but the Collegeteam can be depended on to make a goodbid for championship honours and theDavis Cup. .

The " curtain-raiser" will be provided !by the Waikato and Auckland .school ]representative teams, commencing at two jo'clock. Last week at Hamilton theseboys gave an excellent exhibition of thegame es it should be played, and will nodoubt do so again to-day should conditionsbe favourable.

The other matches are Arawa v.Pukekohe ladies, and Franklin v. Mount !

Eden men.General satisfaction has been expressed

among local players and enthusiasts at ourrepresentatives once again winning theNew Zealand Challenge Shield, and thepremiership of the Dominion. The gamewas played on English Park, Christcburch,and although not equal to Remuera, theground was in very fair condition. On thewhole the game was not a finished exhibi-tion of hockey, mainly due to the bustlingtactics of the Canterbury players. Their

j style of olay proved altogether differentI from that of the Northerners, and itsvigorous character greatly interfered withthe short-passing game usually played byA.acklanders.

| During the first spell there was onlyone team in it, for the Auckland stick

i work and combination outplayed Canter-bury in every department, and the solitary

; clever goal scored by Macken did not in-I dicate the margin between the two teams.

: The second spell was hotly contested, how-ever, and Canterbury made strenuousefforts to force play into the visitors' circle.Although bard pressed for some time theAuckland backs proved equal to the occa-sion, and seldom did Hanna, the Aucklandgoalkeeper, have to play the ball. Severaltimes Auckland narrowly missed a score,and until the end of the game neither sidecould gain any advantage. Twice the Can-terbury forwards netted the ball, but in

I both esses after or simultaneously with| the blowing of the whistle for breaches of> the rules.

PRIMARY SCHOOL NOTES.The representative team spent a very

! enjoyable week-end at Hamilton. Leaving! Auckland on Saturday morning, they

were entertained at luncheon by the Wai-kato Hockey Association. The game wasplayed on Seddon Park as a curtain-

raiser to the Norden Cup match, theWaikato team being composed of sixsecondary and five primary schoolplayers.

Unfortunately for the country team, itsplayers had not previously played to-gether. Nevertheless they shaped well

: against strong opposition, and somej showed considerable promise. The Auck-i landers, quickly got used to the ground,] the surface of which was not the best,

and gave a fine, dean exhibition of; hockey, in which good stick work andi combined play was a distinct feature.

The forwards made some fine runs, inwhich each in turn played the ball, andthese usually finished up with a smartshot at goal.

Watts worked hie line splendidly, andscored four clever goals. Anthony'swork on the right wing was first-class,and Ash did very well on the left. Bothinside forwards worked hard and proveduseful links. Andrew performed splen-didly in the half-line, and so did Pen-man and Cole when they settled down to1 it. The full-back play was the subject|of much comment. Wells tackled andj broke up the opposing attack time and

'l again, while Cocker was almost impas-sable, and played cleverly throughout.Lucas had little to do in goal, but cameout and cleared in fine style. The visi-tors were billetted by the Hamilton boys,and speak highly of th* treatment1 accorded them.

j To-day the Waikato boys are returningthe visit, and this afternoon's matchshould be well worth seeing. It will be

j the last appearance of the Auckland boysfor the season.The members of the Waikato and Auck-land, schools' representative hockey teamsare requested to meet at the Herald office

' at 9.50 a.m. to-day. in order that theyj may be shown over the premises.

LADIES' GOLF UNION. ji— !

THE ANNUAL MEETING.

RESUMPTION OF ACTIVITIES.The first meeting of the New Zealand

Ladies' Golf Union since 1914 was heldlast evening in the Chamber of Commerce,the pres'dent, Miss Rattray, occupying thechair. Thirty-two delegates from all partsof New Zealand attended. The previousannual meeting of the union was held atDunedin in 1614, after which it was de-cided to defer all championship fixturesuntil after the cessation of hostilities.

The annual report stated that duringthe five years' cessation of activities thefollowing new clubs had become affiliated :

Johnsonvillo, Karori, Lyttelton, Takapau,Tauranga and Whangarei. The only im-portant matches played during the warhad been Red Cross and hand "'cap medalmatches. As a result of the formermatches over £l2lO had been raised forpatriotic purposes. Seven clubs had re-signed affiliation owing to the war. Theunion was in a good financial position, andin future would provide medals and othertrophies for competition each year.

lb was resolved that all clubs which hadbeen compelled to resign from the unionowing to war conditions should be allowedreinstatement. The secretary, Mrs. Mell-sop, announced that a challenge trophy.had been anonymously presented, and avote of thanks was accorded the donor.

-On the motion of Miss Gome it wasdecided that in future championship meet-ings the inter-island match should boplayed on the day after the championshipfinal had been played. The secretary ex-plained that as "the championship play*would start on a Wednesday the matchwould be played on the following Friday.j It was also decided that each team shouldconsist of six players.

On the motion of the secretary it wasagreed that in future championshipmatches should be held in the proportionof twd to the North Island and one tothe South. It was stated that there wereat present 32 clubs affiliated to the unionin the North Island, compared with 14in the South. Under the previous systemof allocation it had been found that Auck-land would hold the championship meetingfewer times than Dtmed :n or Christchureh.Auckland had last been the scene of thechampionship in 1907, 12 yeaTs ago.

An amendment proposing* to make theproportion three to two in favour of theNorth Island was defeated.

It was resolved that extra, score cardsshould be signed by lady players only.After cons'derable discussion the "uniondecided to enforce rigidly the English

" half-handicap" penalty, a time-limitbeing provided where players won severaltrophies in quick succession. Members ex-pressed the opinion that this would induceplayers to reduce their handicaps.

It was resolved ihit the neist New Zea*land ladies' championship''' be held inChrißtehurch, and that the club on whose!links the meeting Would be held shouldsupply the secretary of the union withcopies of the local, rules. It was decidedthat the home links Coronation Medalmatches should be held during the thirdweek in June." , ._The president and hon. secretary wereunanimously re-elected.

The Ponsonby Cruising Club has decidedthat the first prize in all the races, exceptthe ladies' events, will be £5 5e for thecoming season. This is a step in theright direction, and no doubt the increasein ,the prize money will result in large ientries being received for this club'sraces.

Mr. S. Bender is building a new22-footer for his own use. She is nowplanked, timbered, and decked, and will ibe launched next month. She will fly the'Victoria Cruising Club's burgee.

Mr. R. Taylor's well-known cruiserSterling Girl is expected to take thewater about Labour Day. As usual thislaunch is looking very smart, both insideand out, and is a credit to her owner andcrew.

The Auckland Yacht and Motor-boatAssociation, which will hold "a meeting onMonday, October 13, has some very im-portant matters to deal with. Delegatesare requested to come prepared with thesuggested dates for their clubs' fixturesfor the 1919-20 racing season, so that theassociation will be able to make satisfac-tory arrangements at this meeting for thecoming season's racing.

Massive scenes of splendour are containedi. and for contrast to the sumptuous furnish-, ings of the mansion where much of theplot develops there are vistas that show amodest fiat and an east side tenementOne gets a complete idea of how bothextremes in New York's population moveand habitats through the benefit of thesecarefully-arranged framings for the plot.Florence Reed, mistress of the art of make-up, fashion-plate and gown-model supreme

in her class, cannot be too highly praisedfor her interpretation of an exceedinglyd fficult role. Forceful and eloquent is the3 appeal of her portrayal, a result of m-. berent artistry and native gifts of his-

- trrome expression. Frank Mills is deserv-• I? ° "P,601 ? 1 Pllß6 for his acting, andthere will always be sympathy at everyshowing of « Wives of Men' for the charao-ter so artistically . portrayed by* GraceDavidson. Miss Reed's part is that of aWife who suddenly finds herself confrontedwith the tronblesome necessity of establish-ing a satisfactory relationship with bethusband, whom she still loves, but whehas been guilty of an unforgivable trans-. gression/ The distrust that has taken theplace of the confidence and faith whiel| . formerly existed prod a aeries of situa-toons which are intensely powerful in dra* xnatic force."e I

' Hiaparole is granted. He emerges from thebattlefield a hero. . His love of a sweeugirl who is ignorant of his pa' - sounds the

j keynote of intense human merest in theplay. A feature of the film is the trench*scene, in. the creation of which more thara

! three hundred American soldiers who hadI seen service ' over there' took ■"art at theWilliam Fox studio." Mr. Farnum, withhis -brother, Dustin Farnum, has had avery wide experience in motion pictures,

GSAND TEEATEE."Life's Greatest Problem" is the Gil*

of the chief picture to be shown at theGrand Theatre to-day. The story isfounded on Provost-Marshal Crewder's"work or fight" law, the action showinghow four "loafers," representative offour different walks of life, are broughtto a realisation of their duty to the coun-try after being caught in a slacker round-up. Dick Craig is the ne'er-do-well sonof John Craig, shipbuilder, whose yardsare working for the Government. Mrs.Craig encourages her son ia tea idleness,considering him too good and to* weak ,to work.

I his father's office, to marry him. Sis .father considers this the first sign of in-telligence Dick has shown, but his ,mother refuses to accept the girl* HowDick eventually becomes a worker, andsaves bis father's shipyard from beingdestroyed by pro-German agents, is de-scribed in the picture.

Supplement to the New Zealand Herald.AUCKLAND, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1919.LOCAL GOSSIP.

BY MEOCTTTIO.Ft may be a result of the war or it•my be a lively anticipation of the elec-

tions, but whatever the cause there wasen altogether unparliamentary unanimityan J enthusiasm in the House of Repre-sentatives over the Women's Parlia-mentary Rights Bill. All parties agreed,and all members agreed with their partiesand wuh everybody else. The absenceof d'.;*ord was positively appalling.Perhaps .some of the ladies will tell listhai the case was so convincing and un-answerable that nothing could be said14; i-.iua it, but nobody who knows Par-It.umjil would believe it, capable of re-fr,,n.ni.- from or such atrilling cause. It would be interestingU. Know what M.IVs redly think aboutU.

It is generally supposed that the "go-slow siriKe in the coal mines involves in-juiy to all concerned—loss of coal forUw. K-mmumty, loss of profits for the min-ing cenipanjes, loss of wages for the minerAjpaieiitly this general distress can betii.-n-x. to advantage and, wonderful torelate, it is the ultra socialist unions of theminers who are making the profit. Com-'menting on the restriction of output, aR-nihern journal says:-" A feature of thispolicy seems to be that the individualmirier attempts to limit hie earnings to acertain maximum sum in each shitt andthat if by any miscalculation he shouldhave produced coal to such an amount thathire wages exceed this amount, he is ex-pected to hand the excess over to hisunion." Opportunity make.* the profiteer.

The prosecution of a barman at Thameswill come as a shock to a community whichhad all bat forgotten that the anti-shouting regulations existed. It iscommon knowledge that the regulationsnever did entirely prevent shouting, butduring the past few months treating hasbeen M common as ever it was.' All thesubterfuges which masked the invitationto ":aave another" have long since dis-appeared, and in every part of the Do-minion money is openly thrown on thebar in payment of drinks for the wholeparty. The public will wonder whyThames has been chosen for the vindi-cation of the law. It is high time theregulations were either withdrawn or en-forced. The open manner in which theyare now being broken can only bring thelaw into contempt. - -

A Labour member of Parliament raiseda protest, this week against a mathematicalexamination which is a preliminary topromotion in the police ' force, and hespoke with bated breath of the possi-bility of an entrance examination forParliament. The idea is rather a goodone. Why not set an examination forM.P.'s? If anybody challenges this onthe ormd that it'is not a democraticway of selecting representatives, thenlet the examination be a preliminary, andlet the final test be the ballot. Thereshould be some other qualification besidesa glib tongue for a seat in Parliament.

It was a curiously casual way in whichthe Prime Minister came to announce him-self in favour of compulsory voting, andit cannot be said that Mr. Maesey madeout a very* strong case for such an inno-vation. The vote of the man who willnot t<iko the trouble to record it is ofdoubtful value at any time, but if he werecompelled to go to"the poll it might-.-be-cast vindictively for the least-desirablecandidate. In any case, the Spate's powerof compelling people to vote is not alto-gether clear. It might make absenteeismexcept on grounds of illness an offence,but it could not prevent the frivolous orangry voter making nis ballot-paper in-formal. It is the old case of taking ahorse to the water.

Who is the modest financier who- haspersuaded Sir Joseph Ward to warn theGovernment against borrowing in the Do-minion and to advise the flotation of aloan in London ? "I have no hesitationin saying," he declared in the Budgetdebate, " that New Zealand could borrowail the money it requires in the Londonmarket." That does not agree with theAugust manifesto: "Anything in theshape of a large borrowing policy by thiscountry outside New Zealand for Govern-ment psmoses would, in my opinion, bevery costly, and for the next few yearsa sane policy of borrowing locally willbe preferable."

The ways of financiers are beyOnd th»ken of plain men. There is, for instanceSir Joseph Ward, who has a reputation tomaintain in that line, of politics. His finan-cial proposals are decidedly puzzlingDuring the war he stored up fifteen mil-lion po'wiris in London, which was verygood of him. Now he proposes that weshould not spend this nest egg, but thatwe should keep it tu pay our debts. Thatmuch Tie can understand. There is everyreason why we should pay our debts; butSir Joseph in the.same breath advises usto draw the interest and spend it, andalso to .50 and borrow more. The surplusis not to he allowed to grow, because weare U> D Re the interest, and it is not toreduce our indebtedness, because we areto keep on borrowing. The scheme soundslike lending your own money on mortgageon another man's property and borrowingto get a property of your own. That sortof tning is counted good finance if you getmire interest than you pay, but Sir Josephdoes not even suggest that there is thehl;_'hU;st hope of such a desirable result.In fa*-t, the prospects are the other wav,in which case it would seem common senseto iw „hat we have before we borrowiin,re.

TWO NAVAL EPOCHS.1769-1919.

BY KATANGA.

I The visit of H.M.S. New Zealand toi these islands of Britain's antipodes marksJ another stage in their relation to the oldj world. The shuttles of the loom of fate

! weave swiftly the twining threads that| knit the Empire of the Seas. Never| again shall we be far from Home. The| Motherland seeks our closer companion-j Siiip, and we seek hers.

I To our distant havens the ship thatbore our name in great historic naval\ battles, and now carries it proudly alongI the marches of empire, has performed her

| mission of unity. We gave her gladly toj the Imperial cause, what tim© the mutter-I ins throats of foes were filling the airwith disquiet. She served with honourthe cause we love, and now, in tßis lastembassage, she has done yet further dutyin the making of empire. We are morethan repaid for our gift: we are debtorsstilL

Terra Incognita.It is not really so long since our littlegroup of dots upon the wide map of oceanwas unknown to Europe. Portuguesedaring first descried land where now we

dwell, and Tasman's voyagings gave somecertainty of knowledge. But really ahundred and . fifty years—no more—-separate us from the first serious surveyof our coasts. Before that day, geo-graphers clung to the notion of a hugesouthern continent, expansive enough tocounterbalance the great land tract of thenorthern hemisphere and keep the SouthPole safelv steady. Juan Fernandez re-ported a glimpse of its shore ; L'Hermite'sDutch squadron went back to port with aconfirming tale of beach and cliff; Quirosand Roggoween, and many another sailorof old renown, gained credence for thebelief through records of land espied hereand there along the undermost routes oftravel.

The " theoretical continent-makers," asSir Joseph Banks Bubs them, were obsti-nate in their assertions, and Sir Josephhimself, although he dismissed the pre-sumptive theories as childish, bo stronglyheld a prepossession of the continent'sexistence that he laid down the lines onwhich an exact plan for its seeking mighthone to be successful as "a voyage ofmere curiosity."

7he First Map.Travelling as Cook's naturalist, Banks

shared the investigation that in 1769 beganthe accurate mapping of these islands, un-less indeed Tasman's noting of a south-east flood-tide where now Cook's Strait isknown and of hollow waves coming fromthe north-east at his Cape Maria VanDie'men, be taken as such a beginning.Whatever Tasman's speculation achieved,it was reserved for the intrepid lieutenantof. the Royal Navy, who set off from Ply-mouth in August of 1768, commissioned toconvey the expedition appointed to ob-serve in the Pacifio the transit of Venus,to do the Empire this service.

On that epoch-making voyage, said byCaptain Wharton (Cook's diary-editor) tobe "to the English nation the mostmomentous voyage of discovery that hasever taken place," more than manning wasaccomplished. To the representations ofLieutenant .Cook, and his naturalist thefirst schemes for the colonisation of Aus-tralasia are due. A ship of the BoyalNavy, though not "the first that everburst into that silent sea," was the actualpioneer of British interest and settlementin these waters; and New Zealand wasthe remotest point of that quest.

An Imperial Outpost.In Banks' journal Us the following

entry, under date March 30th, 1770." Having now entirely circumnavigatedNew Zealand, and found it, not as gene-rally supposed, part of a continent, buttwo islands, and having not the least rea-son to imagine that any country largerthan itself lay in its neighbourhood, itwas resolved to leave it and proceed uponfurther discoveries on our return to Eng-land, as we were determined to do asmuch as the state of the ship and provi-sions would allow."

So ended Cook's first quest of ourshores. Next day a light breeze wasfilling H.M.S. Endeavour's sails as shebore homeward her precious freight ofknowledge.

Between 1769 and 1919, between thevisits of two specially-commissioned war-ships, there lies the century and a-half ofdevelopment that has changed theseislands from a terra incognita to a centreof Imperial concern. To the Lieutenant-Commander of the Endeavour, New Zea-land was an island group named by aDutchman, its shores occupied by a bar-barous but interesting race of tribesmen,its resources unexploited, and its import-ance merely a hazard, however shrewdlymeasured. To the Admiral of the Fleet,who yesterday left it, as of yore, Britain'sremotest interest geographically reckoned,New Zealand is no mean country.

. A Land Come to Honour.

Its multiplying people speak his mothertongue, and honour his national ideals,and set high store upon his navy. Theship whose deck he treads was their giftto that navy. It carries round theEmpire's oversea dominions the name ofTaxman's bertowing, a name now madeknown and splendid by the prowess ofNew Zealand's sons of both primitive andcolonial races. The little land of suchrecent discovery has taken a place in thesun. Its statesmen share the governanceof Greater Britain; its approval has beensealed to the greatest compact ever madebetween the nations; its flag has placeamid the ensigns of free peoples.

Between the quests of these two war-ships there lie much business of state andthe changeful endurance of colonists. Theland has been possessed and tilled ; itsforests have been compelled to yield toman's advance; its waterways are feelingthe control of his hand. It has passedthrough the experience of the strangerwithout the gate. Adopted into thefamily of the Motherland, it now assumes..he responsibilities of adolescent strength.In a word, the names of these two shipsare .symbolic -. the Endeavour of 1769 hasbecome the New Zealand of 1919.

THE BANK NOTE.A PAPER CURRENCY.

- BY H. W. SEGAB,, M.A.

Bank notes have become more intimatefriends to most of us since Germany wagedwar in 1914. They are not always as cleanand natty as we should like. The smallernotes are the worst, as well as the mostnumerous, offenders for they come backat longer intervals to the bank. SomeAuthorities even warn us that they aredangerous; that the deadly germ findsa habitation in the dirt on their surface.But they now lie comfortably in onepocket, while the sovereign-case lies emptyin another.

There was once a scepticism that led toa reluctance to receive bank notes, sothat Professor Price had to explain howthey retained currency. "The taking ofthem in payment is not so purely a volun-tary act as the taking of a cheoue. Thereis a kind of semi-compulsion pressing onthe man to whom they are ottered. Thetradesman who rejected them would runthe risk of losing his customers. .

..

offence might be given to the numerousfriends and customers of the bank through-

| out the town." And McCulloch ex-i plained: " The bulk of the people arewithout power to refuse them. The cur-rency of many extensive districts consistsin great part of country notes, and suchsmall farmers or tradesmen as should de-cline taking them would be exposed tothe greatest inconveniences." But bankshave grown in honour and repute, and if,before the war, gold was commonly ingeneral use, it was not through any doubtin the security of the note. It was amatter of habit rather than of conviction.

VPe have now been constrained to changeour practice under confpulsion. Will thenew usage remain when constraint is re-moved? Or we on the first oppor-tunity cash a cheque and ask for "old?It seemß likely that gold will never be' sofreely used again. The constraint is last-ing ,ong enough to largely break the in-fluence of- former use and custom. Wehave probably acquired a new habit. Theinstitution of the one-pound note in Eng-land removes a stumbling-block. Withnothing under a five-pound note issued,gold Had to be largely used. Many, ifnot most, Englishmen coming out to NewZealand would formerly meet here a one-pound note for the first time in their lives..Nor would they always take kindly to it.But against a new habit, and with a one-pound note available, if it is retained,gold may fail to regain its customaryvogue, even in England.

Small Notes.If it is retained ! It was necessary to

add this provision, for the one-pound note#has been kept out of circulation in Eng-"

land of set purpose and for solid reason.Adam Smith appreciated the advantagesof notes. "The gold and silver moneywhich circulates in any country may veryproperly be compared to a highway, which,while it circulates and carries to market allthe grass and corn of the country, producesitself not a. single pile of either. Thejudicious operations of banking, by pro-viding—if I may be allowed so violenta • metaphor" sort of waggon-waythrough the air, enable the country toconvert, as it were, a great part of itahighways into good pastures and corn-field, and thereby to increase very con-siderably the annual produce of its landand labour." But he adds a warning:"The commerce and industry of thecountry, however, it must be acknow-ledged, though they may be somewhataugmented, cannot be altogether so securewhen they are thus, as it were, suspendedupon the Dcedalion wings of paper money,as when they travel about upcn the solidground of gold and silver. Over and abovethe accidents to which they are exposedfrom the unskilfolnes* of the conductors cfthis paper money, they are liable toseveral others, from which no prudence orskill of those conductors can guard them."" It were better," Adam Smith lat«r re-commends, "that no bank notes wereissued in any part of the kingdom for asmaller sum than five pounds."

Even before the war -Smith's country,Scotlandand Ireland, too— their one-pound notes; but the strain of war wasrequired to make England disregard AdamSmith's advice. More recent opinion isdivided. Tooke and Bagehot, for in-stance, discouraged the idea of issuing one-Sound notes, whilst Professors Price andNicholson have strongly urged their adop-tion. England of all countries, however,as the financial centre of the world, hasto pay most heed to Adam Smith's warn-ing as to security.

Yet it is interesting to note that oncebefore England made the experiment. In1797, during the Napoleonic' era, wheninternational stress led to "ill-foundedand exaggerated alarms" in different partsof the country, cash payments were sus-pended by the Bank of England, and notesof values, both one and two pounds, wereissued. But in 1821 the country was re-covering from the Napoleonic wars.Trouble had been experienced from theforging of bank notes, an offence greatlyencouraged by the currency of the smallernotes. The greater danger of panic result-ing from an extensive circulation of one-pound notes was realised. The bankaccordingly commenced paying off in goldall notes under five pounds. The occasionwas rendered memorable inasmuch as the(sovereign was used for the first time, dis-placing the guinea. Ckild to the value ofno less than £9.520.758 was coined in oneyear. Is history going to repeat itself,and when ?

Over-issue of Notes. '

Can notes be over-issued? When incon-vertible into gold there is no doubt aboutit, from any point of view. The processis only too easy. But when convertible ondemand, as normally before the war, theanswer depends on the meaning of thequestion. A battle royal took place onthe subject in the early part of the lastcentury between the greatest authorities.Even if the issue of notes be unrestricted,convertibility seems a sufficient guaranteeagainst the notes depreciating in terms ofgold. But it eeems equally clear thatnotes may be issued to such "an extent asto endanger the gold reserve; and theymay be issued to such an extent as toraise price* and so depreciate the wholecurrency in general purchasing power.

With an unlimited power of issue, andthe greater amount of currency thus avail- Iable, it would be open to banks to so jextend their credit that the gold reserve 'would be serious'y weakened relatively tothe amount of credit and the number ofnotes in circulation. There would thennot be the reserve required to meet an ex-ceptional demand for gold. To avoid acatastrophe in an abnormal time, weshould be dependent on the constantprudence of the banks to safeguard theirown credit and security by sufficientlylimiting their issues of notes. Yet theirordinary experience would not continuallyremind them perhaps strongly enough ofthe danger in a time of financial pressureor panic, and undue risks might be taken.

The publicity given to banking returnsis some safeguard, as well as the associa-tion between bank and bank. But thepossibility remains, and the principle oflimitation of issue which found expression Iin the Bank Act of 1844 has been generally 'followed, with variations in detail. The '

Legislatures have not deemed it advisable to 1depend on the management of the banks. InAustralia notes may be issued to a valuefour times that of the gold hold in re-serve. Although full advantage of this

I provision has not been taken, yet duringthe war the notes in circulation have in-creased from under £20.000.000 to over£56.000.000. This represents an enormousaddition to the currency. Elsewhere, since

1 1914, the normal restrictions have been j! widened or removed, leading to an issue

1 of notes, forming a large factor in the in- Ij crease in the cost of living. But through- |I out it all the policy and practice of New II Zealand has remained based on the normal 1conservative English practice. Should not IIbis be counted amongst our victories and Jcredit given to 'the Government, that Jachieved it? •

AN OUTDOOR DIARY.

FOREST AND FIELD.BY EAMBLEB.

From the top of the hill two littleworlds can he seen dreaming in the sun-shine world of clustered houses andcultivated farms along the valley on theeastern side of the ridge, and a worldof virgin bush on the western slopes. Justa turn of the head changes the view fromone to the other—a perfect contrast inscenery and significance. One picturetells of several decades of systematic toilhy progressive people; the other revealsthe forest land which appears the sameto-day as it has for countless centuries.

A few yards down the slope rises thebleached trunk and boughs of a huge ueadrimu, standing like a silent sentinel atthe edge of the bush. Although strippedof all foliage, there is still somethinggrand in the contours and outlines of itsnaked form, gleaming whitely against itsbackground of green and blue. .

.Pass

by the sentinel, and in a moment you arescrambling through dense, damp under-growth, into a forest of magnificent trees,and a tangled riot of scrub and parasite.In the occasional open spaces you seethe rimu's mighty domes of green over-topping lesser trees; or a vista showsthe lower portion of the gully, and youlook upon a glistening roof of leafyluxuriance. As far as eye can see, green,green, green 1 From below comes a con-tinual sound of bird-song, rising and fall-ing like the whisper of trees in a vagrantbreeze. Then, nearby, a tui's rich notesthrill the quiet air. You hear a swishof wings, a pigeon skims across thegully, followed by another, both alightingon a high branch, outlined against thesky. It is spring-time, song-time, mating-time.

In the Moonlight.The road is misty white in the moon-

shine. Warm lights gleam in cottagewindows behind the hedges on one sideof the road; on trie other a number ofscattered cabbage trees lift their tuftedheads against the pale sky. A few ghostlysheep are moving about the paddock,which is washed with light; bat the treesthemselves are black silhouettes, for themoon has not long risen above the hillsbehind them. Cabbage trees never possessmuch charm, but these are given a sortof decorative distinction now that allderail is lost and only the outline canbe seen. The long, straight trunk, theshort branches reaching out 10 or 12ftabove the ground, and the radiating clus-ters of pointed blades— form a strik-ing scene, especially as the trees standapart, some near, some distant. Whatthey lack in beauty or form is in somemeasure compensated for by their distinc-tive Now Zealand character. Like theMaori, like the tui, the cabbage tree ispeculiarly representative of this land.

But in the moonlight every aspect bor-rows a new charm. Although the moonis almost full, its light is soft and con-stantly varying, for faint films of vapourare floating across the sky. Familiarscenes possess fresh faces; everywhereseems a likely haunt of beauty andromance. No wonder the poeta singabout the moon, for even the dullest clodis compelled to see and feel the mysteryand loveliness its influence imparts to acommonplace world.

Spring's Emblems.Whan rambling 'cross-conntry between

the high roads the thought came to mindof the conspicuous part that is played byalien plants and birds in the heraldingof spring in New Zealand. Our landscapeis always verdant; right through thewinter the grass and native trees andhedges are green ; so that, but for theflowers, the willows and hawthorn, andthe transplanted song birds, there willbe little to tell the eye and ear thatthe season of renewal had come. As 1wandered in the fields to-day, with aclear sky overhead and a brilliant sunrejoicing thing, it was the skylarks'and thrushes that filled the air withmusic, the busy movements of blackbirdsand starlings that caught the attention,and the tender green of willows and eldersthat bore visible witness to the merryspring-time. Apart from them the coun-try looked almost the same as it did afew months ago; what we ask for nowis exuberant evidence of freshness andchange and growth. There is keenpleasure in watching the steady, irresist-ible advance of living beauty—the develop-ment of leaves and blossoms and theheightening of their colours. In theseislands, so far from old England, thespring's earliest and commonest emblemsare those that Elizabethan poets rhymedabout—" the woods with green leaves, thebushes with blossoming buds"; the prim-rose and violet and daffodil; the sportivelamb, and the birds' triumphantmadrigals !"

A Proverb for Ramblers.'The other day I read for the first time

a proverb which says:Make the most of all that comes,And the least of ail that goes!

A good thought for anybody ; speciallyappropriate for people who take theirpleasure under the sky—ramblers andgardeners. In fact, one of the chiefmerits of outdoor interests is that theysupport that proverb and enforce beliefin its philosophy. The whole pageant ofout-of-doors is constantly changing ; every-day something is going—and something is

coming. For our human purposes wedivide time into days and weeks and sea-sons, but nature knows no fixed periods.The course of life is always moving,silently, mysteriously, inexorably. Alwayschanging, always coming, always going.That is why outdoors is perennially inter-esting and its charm ever new. Thisafternoon nothing is quite the same asthis morning—the shadows have altered,the grass and foliage have taken on freshhues. To-day is different from yesterday;this plant is more advanced, that one isdeclining; there a blossom has fallen,here a bud is about to bloom.

Make the most of aLI that comes, andthe least of all that goes! There isalways so much to come that one uncon-sciously forgets to bemoan that which hasgone. Tile gardener has no thoughts forthe day before yesterday; his attentionis fixed on the moment, or looks aheadto next month or next year. He plantshis seeds to-day so that they will reachthe moment of fulfilment at the propertime. That is the moment of which hethinks and for which he works! Garden-ing is the ideal hobby for active agedpeople, whose minds easily linger withthe past; gardening makes them thinkahead hopefully—and that is to be glad.In the sunshine and the soil there ishope; however rich our gatherings, therealways remains as much as before. Dawnis as mysterious as ever, the starryheavens have never lout anv of theirsplendour, flowers have never been sweeteror more colourful than those about us.Forgetting those things which are behind,the gardener and rambler look upon theworld that is every moment " coming,and in that they find content.

THE NAVY'S CRADLE.HISTORICAL PORTSMOUTH,

BY IVAN BLYTH.The recent presence of the H.M.S. New

Zealand in the Waitemata will bring tomany minds memories of an old town onthe south coast of England—Portsmouth,the birthplace and cradle of England's seapower, a name to conjure with, a name,linked with all that is most glorious in ournaval history for centuries. Nestling be-neath wooded hills and flanked by boldheadlands, and covered to the south by theIs* of Wight, the old naval depot liesin a position of great natural strength,and it "has been artificially strengthenedand fortified as to be well nigh im-pregnable.

Betwixt island and mainland stretchesthe wide expanse of the Solent, with thefamous anchorage of Spithead, dotted withcraft of every conceivable shape and rig.Here lie huge battleships and cruisers,torpedo-boats dart hither and thither, andsinister-looking destroyers and submarines°° me and go on the King's business.Ashore, the gun wharves and arsenalsand dock yards are full of bustlingactivity, repairing the wastage of the warand fitting out the vessels that keep theseas free for the flags of all nations. Instrange contrast to the teeming life of theport are the old-time warships, thewooden walls, grim relics of other timesand other wars. Quietly at anchor theyswing to the incoming tide, through whoseports poured flame and shot in many anancient eea fight. The laughing faces ofsailor lads replace the tiers of guns, forthese old ships—their haven won—aretraining-ships and schools for sailors' sonsVictory, Asia, St. Vincent, famous namesthese— high-wooded old hulks, but

,in their day things of beauty, with taper-ing spare and a cloud of canvas. One hasto see a modern cruiser alongside the oldline of battleships to realise how smallWC 5e

xrh,

f vesse' that Drake and Frobisherand Nelson used wherewith to write thegrowing pages of our past sea history, andto compare their armaments with the longlean grey monster that is a line o' battle-ship in the year of grace 1919.

There is something unique in this quaintold sea port, some intangible thing thatlends itself to the inhabitants. They arein a manner semi-aquatic, of the eea, andtor the sea, manning the wherries andschooners and other small craft that playin and out in all weathers, while fromthe creeks and inlets of the mainland andthe Isle of Weight the boys swarm to theservice. The call of the blood holdsstrongly; not for nought have our fathersfollowed the sea up and downin summer,when the sea was as blue as their owneyes, and in bitter winter weather, whenthe plunging colliers were sheathed frombitta to trees, in green-grained sea ice. Soyear in and year out the same patient,hardy seafarers filled our shipg-of-waruntil the Navy became a tradition, fol-lowed as men followed the quest of theHoly Grail.

The Speech of Portsmouth.Would you know a Portsmouth manabroad ? Note his speech, for it be-

wrayeth him. If he says Porchm'th, he isof the salt blood, one of the initiated; ifhe refers affectionately to Old Pompey hehas trodden the moving deck of a man-o'-war, for so is the old port known to thosewho go down to the sea in the King's ships.Come with me along the Hard and turninto the narrow streets that lead from thatfamous waterfront, and yon shall breathean atmosphere salt as the tide-race thatwhips the harbour month, and full of thesea traditions of six hundred years, andshall learn more in two hours than youever knew of the men who have kept the"marches of the sea through winter stormand summer heat while we lay safe andsnug abed. Portsmouth is full of them.And you shall rub shoulders and talk withmen who have known every kind of seaservice' in all parts of the world, men whohave been in the submarines and the dare-devil destroyers, men who were withBturdee at the Falkland?, with Beatty inthe Heligoland Bight, and with Jellicoein the great Jutland fight, and men whoswear because they were not. Fine fellowsthese tars; grim fighters abroad, but athome hearty and lovable and very human,merry as grigs and light-hearted as a<schoolboy home for holiday. Hers yonshall learn to know and admire them, andfeel the blood quicken in your veins withpride that you are of the same race asthese men. Rich in historical associationis the neighbourhood; here on the banksof the creeks and in the dockyards werebuilt some of the most famous ships ofthe Navy, ships that were with Lord Howeon the glorious first of June, at Cape St.Vincent and the Nile, as well as greatironclads and battle-cruisers of our owntime.

Eloquent of the Fast.There are quaint old publichouses, with

cobbled yards and oaken doors, andsettees, and names eloquent of the past—-old, old places, old as our history. Hereis the tavern where George Duke of Buck-ingham met his death by the hand of theassassin; here the house where Nelsonslept the night before he sai'ed on thelong search for Vil'.enenve, that endedwith the victory of Trafalgar and his ownglorious death. Here also Benbow andHawke and Howe were familiar figures;and these narrow streets have re-echoedto the tramp and voices of the men whoworked the guns at the Nile and mannedthe ships that added the thunder of theirguns to the deeper note of the storm atQuiberon Bay.

Portsmouth contributed its quota ofships and men to these victories, andsnared the glory and, alas ! the sorrow ofthese stirring times; and still the.same to-daythe fire burns and the colour holdsand many a fine lad went from OldPompey and laid down his life for hiscountry, counting not the cost, so thatEngland's heritage remained free and un-sullied.

What a debt, an incalculab'e debt, dowe owe to these men ! By them we havebeen saved nameless horrors, and our landhns been kept inviolate ; by their vigilantwatch and ward they have kept open thesea roads and the outposts of Empire safe,and have spoken shrewdly with ourenemies in the Northern Gate.

THOSE OTHERS.

Where are those others?—the men who stood"in the first wild spate of the German flood.And pa d full price with their heart's beat

blood, ■ .For the saving of you and me;

French's Contemptibles, haggard and lean,A'uonby's lads of the cavalry screen,Gunners who fell in Battery L.

And Guardsmen of Landrecies ?

Where are those others who fought and fell,Outmauned, outgunned, and scant of shell.On the deadly curve of the Ypres hell,

Barring the coast to the last?Where are our laddies who died out there,From Poelcapelle to Feslubert,When the days grew short and the poplars

bareIn the cold November blast?

For us their toil and for us their pain,The sordid ditch in the sodden plain.The Flemish fog and the driving ram,

The cold that cramped and' froze;The weary night, the chill bleak day,When earth was dark and sky was grey,And the ragged weeds in the dripping clay '

Were all God's world to those.Where are those others in this glad time,When the standards wave and the joy-bells

chime,And London stands with outstretched hands

Waving her children in?Athwart our joy still comes the thoughtOf the dear dead boys, whose lives haveboughtAll that sweet victory has brought

To us who lived to win.To each his dreams, and mine to me,But as the shadows fail I seeThat ever glorious company.

The men who bide out there.Riflemen. Highlander, Fusilier,Airman and Sapper and Grenadier,With flaunting banner and wave and cheer,They flow through the darkening air.And yours are there, and so are mine.Rank upon rank and line -on line,With smiling lips and eyes that shine,

And bearing proud and highPast they go with their measured tread,These are the victors, these the dead!Ah, sink the knee and bare the head

As the hallowed host goes by !

THE WAR RUINS OF FRANCE

RETURN OF THE REFUGEES.BT SEES. LEO MYERS.

Cold it was and wet, and blowing sucha blizzard that the interior of our motor-lorry seemed as chill as a bleak mountain-top, as we rattled towards La Bassee onthat day's journey of 150 kilometres.

.

. . Yet. what mattered our littlefeelings of cold and discomfort, of hungerand fatigue, compared to that panoramaof desolation which held the eye every-where Ruin and desolation—the thoughtof which would be unbearable were itnot for the memory of the courage andsacrifice for which they stand symbol.

All this battle-zone where fiercest fight-ing took place—Festubert, Guinchy andGivenchy, along La Basse© Canal andthat historic road where, as PatrickMcGill wrote:

You'll Bee the soldiers, khaki-clad, incolumn and platoonCome swinging up La Bassee road from

billets in Bethune.The sorrow and the glory of it was that .

Many boys, good lusty boys, whomarched away so fine,

Have now got little homes of clay besidethe firing-line.

A country of unutterable desolation,where battles swayed to and fro for fouryears, where midst mud and shell-hellour heroes held on, grimly fighting Death,with je*ts on their lips.

We look, dumbly, and try to visualisethis appalling scene of years of trenchwarfare, when this vast area was crammedwith men and guns, rent with the soundsand scenes of conflictthe roar of shells,the men going "over the top," acrossmorasses of mud and torn earth and themuck and misery of Death— Terrorand Heroism seem still to stalk, ghost-like, over the desolate waste, over thisdeadly silent desert of Memories. . . .

Reconstruction of Homes.In a driving snowstorm we enter Lens,

that once prosperous pre-war collierytown, now a distorted mass of wreckedhomes and fallen buildings huge rub-bish heap of matchwood, powdered brickand tile, splintered timber, and twistedskeletons of machineryall massed inghastly confusion. . . . Not a roof ora road to mark a habitation. Not asingle place left. Nothing but totteringwalls and gaping holes.

But bravely the refugees return. Thir-teen hundred of them live—God knowshow or where —among this debris 1 . . .Back they wander to remake a Home,creeping into cellars and clay dug-outs,or a wretched corner of broken lowerstorey, over which they drag a jaggedpiece of corrugated roofing to keep outthe wind and,rain. We see them diggingamong the debris, collecting bits of brick,putting up pieces of timber, and pa-tiently gathering any materials they canfind to patch and put together a cornerin which to live. . . . Oh ! the Faithand Courage of these stricken people.'It is Epic in its stark Fidelity. . . .Though the word Home is not in theFrench language, no people show sostrong and cat-like an attachment to thespot where ■ their little house stands ontheir little bit of land.

The recovery of the old site or pieceof farm land is a hard, bewildering task.The re-portioning out of each commune iswork enough to drive the wisest authori-ties to despair. . . . Slow and dis-heartening the labour, scarce the food.

! and difficult the problem of obtaining firewood. Yet these people labour daily withHope renewed. Wintry winds will soonblow over, and this year, they say, it is

Next day again through Armentieres,thence Nieppe and Bailleul (and very nearPloegsteert), through Locre and over theBelgian frontier to Kemmel, Voormezeele,and Dickebusch to Ypres! .

..

Ypres, as it lies to-day .... asombre, widely-scattered Tomb, beneathwhich are buried the poignant tragedies ofthree years of conflict. . . . It is ter-ribly, everlastingly impressive. Theworst, thejnost hopeless of it all. Every-thing is destroyed—gone. Dante, in his

return down the Menin Road. Its veryname echoes a dirge of unforgetfulness.The lingering horrors of battle engravethemselves deep in our memory. On everyside German pill-boxes shot to pieces;dozens of overturned tanks perforatedwith holes lie like slain giants who Laveperished in agony. Some sunk deep inponds, smashed by artillery fire, at the"the bottom of huge shell-caverns. . .A demolished tank, more human than anyother kind of war machinery, is a patheticthing. The sight of these monsters outthere on the Menin Road lying in seasof mud, among those blackened graves,symbolised untterable Futility.

Never will any of us forget that scene.It burnt so deeply into our consciousnessthat its memory haunted us on our homejourney motor-lorry from Lille toBoulogne, through St. Omer and thefertile -fields and unharmed homes whichskirt the Channel coast.

With our minds we held it, as wecrossed the sea; it was with us all thehours we trained through England*garden of Hampshire, where fruit treesbloomed their bridal dower and littlewhite lambs dotted the wide greenmeadows.

It will be with us (by contrast) nowthat we are back to our own dear land,which was spared invasion and annihilation through the Valour and Enduranceof our Bravest and Best. . . .

NATURE NOTES.

BI a, DRUMMOKD, F.fc.B., L&&,A resident of Taurasga has sent a box

filled with sulphur-coloured flowers of theyellow kowhai, in their envelopes of oldgold. The tree that bore the golden dropswas visited by scores of tuis. In theirhaste to sip the nectar, they tore opensome of the flowers and destroyed manybeautiful petals. The tree is in a sun-less place, otherwise the flowers probablywould have shrivelled and withered beforethe third week in September, when theywere taken. The kowhai's blooms areharbingers of spring rather than springflowers. In New Zealand, spring officiallybegins on September 23. As the kowhaioften has lost its bloom by that date, itmay be regarded almost as a winterbloomer. It has bloomed in Dunedin inJune. To Urewera Maoris, its bloomsmarks the "kowhai frost," tie last frostof the season. Usually, it synchroniseswith the crocuses and the wattles, and isin advance of the daffodils and of manyother spring plants of the garden.

The red kowhai is another early bloom.Unlike its yellow namesake, it retains itsblooms for a fairly long time. They havebeen taken as early as August, and as lateas November. Although it is seen in NewZealand gardens oftener, perhaps, thanany other native plant, it is one of therarest natives in a wild state. TheGreat Barrier Island and cliffs on theshores of Lake Waikaremoana are knownto be its homes. It may grow on otherislands in the northern parts of NewZealand, but is reported to be almost ex-tinct on the mainland. It is believedthat cultivation by European and Maorishas saved it from utter extinction,Scarlet kowhai 13 a better name for itthan red kowhai, as the flowers, like aparrot's bill in shape, are bright scarlet.Both kowhais belong to one of the largestplant families in the world, theLeguminosaß. The wistaria, laburnum, gorseclover, and the sweet-pea are members ofit. Of the 6000 or 7000 species in thefamily, only twenty-six are indigeuous toNew Zealand, and all of these belong toa sub-family that bears the entomologicalname of the butterflies, papiho.

The common clematis, which is laterthan the kowhais, is a consistent flowerof spring. Its starry blooms should bebeautifying many forests at the presenttime. Miss Jessie Mackay, of Christ-church, has written in its praise anappropriately dainty poem under its Maoriname, Piki-arero. Mr. R. M. Laingstates that another name, used by north-ern tribes, Pua-wananga, means thesacredflower. The drooping flowers of thenative tree-fuchsia, dark purple and purpryred, usually open about the same time asthose of the clematis, and may be seenuntil the end of the year. The tree-fuchsia, which is either a shrub or a tree,from ten feet to forty feet high, is thebest known New Zealand member of thefuchsia family, bat there are two smallernative fuchsias. One, a slender, prostrateplant from six inches to eighteen incheslong, known • to gardeners as FuchsiaKirkii, is a favourite in the Dominion'sprivate gardens and greenhouses. It isa native of certain sandy and rocky placesin the Auckland province. LeonardFuchs—Fox in Englishto whom theseelegant plants are dedicated, was a notedGerman physician and botanist. He died350 years ago.

All New Zealand's epecies of fuchsiasbelong to this Dominion alone. The onlyother species known, about fifty, arenatives of South America. Some belongto the Cordilleras "of Chili and Pern.None -was grown in England until aboutninety-six years ago. The presence offuchsias in New Zealand and SouthAmerica is accepted as evidence of con-nection between the two countries informer ages.- The South American elementis more marked in New Zealand plantsthan in Australian plants. The yellowkowhai, the calceolaria, a species of mare'stail, a species of koromiko, and severalother species, in addition to the fuchsias,are native of only New Zealand and SouthAmerica. About one-fourth of New Zea-land's, genera are found in South America,although they are not confined to the twocountries. New Zealand's plants alsohave close association with those! ofPatagonia, Southern Chili, Tierra delFuego, the Falkland Islands, the Crozets,Kerguelen Island, and Tristan d'Acunha.This is the sub-antarctic element in theDominion's plants. The late Captain F.W. Hutton. of Christchurch, put forth atheory based on botanical and otherreasoning, that in the Jurassic Period, inthe middle of the Mesozoic Era, perhaps500,000,000 years ago according to recentmethods of computation, New Zealandand South America were united by land,and that much later, at the end of theCainozoic Period, there were in the South-ern Ocean a number of islands that havedisappeared.

The white flowers of the karaka belongstrictly to spring. This tree's laurel-likefoliage soon wiR be embellished by large,oblong, orange, damson-shaped berries.They are attractive to tuis, and were usedas food by Maoris after their poisonousproperties had been destroyed. Thekaraka is strangely distributed. It ismore plentiful in the North Island than inthe South Island, but is absent fromTuhoeland; it forms delightful groves nearKaikoura; it does not grow further souththan Long-look-out Point, Banks Penin-sula; and it is the dominant tree inChatham Island forests. Morioris usedit preferably for their grotesque carvingsof human beings. When plants hadhuman attributes in New Zealand and theChatham Islands, there was a legend thatseeds of the karaka originally were broughtfrom Hawaiki, the islanders' Eden. Thekaraka berry was an important food toboth Maoris and Morioris, and both racesused the same processes to remove thepoison. As kanakas have been found inNew Caledonia and the New Hebridies,botanists have a theory that the tree cameto New Zealand from the north when thiscountry extended in that direction.Although Papawhero, on the north bankof the Patea River, Tajranaki, is mentionedas the place where Turi, captain of theAotea, planted the fimt karaka seeds fromHawaiki soon after ho leaped ashore fromthe canoe, the botanists' theory discreditsthe natives pleasant sylvan legend.

A correspondent who has a miner's jclaim on the West Coast of the South jIsland, and who has lived in the forests ;for almost thirty years, has asked if !other people have had the same strange Iexperience as he had when human voices iseemed to come from the recesses. He istates that the impression sometimes is jvery slight, hut sometimes is so strong ithat he feels inclined to follow the fanciedsounds. An old gentleman, now aresident of Christchurch, in his young days jspent much time alone m the alpine forestsof Nelson. He told me that he had Ioccasionally heard soft human voices there iwith surprising distinctness. Mr. Elsdon IBest, during his residence at Ruatahnnga, •in the heart of the Frewera Country- had jsome experience in this respect. ''There iis a 60und that you will hear in the ]forests day hy day" and night by night," jhe says. "It is the sound of people jtalking. Tt seems exactly like the voicesof people talking at a distance. In my )young days, when I camped alone in the jforest, I sometimes went in search of the ,

voices. Tdoso no longer, but they are jold friends. In the early 'seventies, an jold soldier was lost in the forest between jOpotiki and Poverty Bay. He was found jand was brought down to a station _at |Waikohn. He informed me that duringhis week's wanderings he had often heard | ■forest voices, and that he had gone into j :the cullies to look for them. Primitive ipeoples seem to have an idea that there iare unseen presences in the forests. The j iidea is shared by a few, a very few, iEuropeans who have lived much alone in j 1the forests and have a strong love of 'Nature, and perhaps, imaginative minds. 1The forest solitudes fill some who sojourn ]in them with a great loneliness and misery, Ibut to others they bring deep contentment, iand even much cahn happiness."

DOCTOR "LOSES HIS HEAD."

A TERRIBLE ADMISSION.

DEATH OP A' YOUNG WIDOW.

CHARGE OP MURDER PAILS.

""My head was bad, my nerves werebad, and the instrument might haveslipped. I noon realised the damage Ibad done. I lost nry head completely; •the horror of the thing was so awful. It«<u< just as though I had lost my senses."

This dramatic confession—characterisedby the judge as a terrible one for a pro-fessional man to make—was uttered atSwansea Assizes by Dr. Harry LysaghtHoops, 61, a well-known Cardiff surgeon,who was charged with the wilful murderuf Winifred Davies, a widow.

There were many pathetic features mihe case, and women wept as as Dr.Hoops (rave evidence on his own behalf.It was a story of work, of the lossof a son on active eorvice, and of domesticworry. The attendance in the court in-cluded a number of well-known SouthWales medical gentlemen, and, when Mr.

„ Justice Avory took his seat, prisoner ap-peared" in the dock in the charge of twowarders,

A grey-haired man, he wore a dark-greyon.it, and it was obvious that during theperiod of his confinement he had ageda, groat deal.

Answering the indictment, prisoner saidin a firm voice, "lam not guilty."

Opening the case for the prosecution,Mr. Artomos Jones pointed out thatprisoner was a doctor, who for manyyears had carried on practice at Cardiff.On tho evening of March 11 last he wasalleged to have performed a certain opera-Lion upon Winifred Davies, and in conse-quence of that operation the woman diedon March 13. A young widow, she livedwith her two children and her mother inDonald Street, Cardiff, and she followedthe occupation of a tram conductress. On

"Saturday, March 8, she- attended to herwork in the ordinary way, bat on thofollowing Monday she was too ill to goto her employment. She suffered pain onthe Tuesday, and on that evening prisonerwas called in. His visit was in pursuanceof an arrangement made beforehand.

Visit to the Registrar.It was on this night that tho operation

was performed. Dr. Hoops remained atihe house from 9 p.m. until 3.30 on theWednesday. The young woman breathedher last on Thursday night. Almost anhour afterwards accused called on a Mrs.Elizabeth Thomas, asking her to go tothe house in > Donald Street. On thefollowing day he wen'; to a Cardiff under-taker named Thomas and said to him: "Ihave a patient who died last night, and Iwant you to arrange the funeral." Shortlyafterwards be called on Mrs. Taylor, theregistrar of deaths for the Roath districtof Cardiff, to report the death, and pro-duced a certificate showing! that theprimary cause of death was influenza'andthe secondary Gauss' was double psaa-monia.

Mra. Taylor said that under the law shewas not allowed to take a medical man asinformant. Dr. Hoops then left, and heinstructed a. Mrs. Morgan to go to DonaldStreet to get Mrs. Xteea to report thematter to the registrar. On the followingday the police instituted inquiries, as a Jresult of which the corpse of the deadwoman was removed to the Cardiff mortu-ary for the purpose of a post-mortem ex-amination. Accused -was present, and theexamination was conducted by Dr. RhysGriffith*.

Views of Medical Hen.Evidence as to the post-mortem ex-

amination was given' by Dr. Philip EhysGriffiths, who said there were no signs ofpneumonia. There was, however, evidenceof recent peritonitis, but he could not saypositively whether deceased was pregnant.He attributed death to eept-ic poisoningfollowing; on perforation.

Can yen find anything wrong in theconduct of Dr. Hoops in what was de-scribed by Mrs. Bees?—Mb $ not medicallyor crimiaally.

Further cross-examined, he said he feltthat Dr. Hoops was indiscreet is nothaving a second man to ad minuter ananaesthetic.

The Judge: In the circumstances of thiscase, did you hod anything in the con-dition which would justify the belief inthe mind of a medical man that she diedof -pneumonia? The only evidence ie thecongestion at the base of one lung. Itis quitepossible for a man who was lackingin skill to have suspected that a littlecongestion, at the base of one lung waapneumonia.

Dr. Tenkon Collins considered that Cheperforation had been caused by an instru-ment, and he agreed that the perforationcould happen without the knowledge of.the operator, especially with a had lightand iin the absence of a, trained aadatanfe *

Statement fry Accused.Dr. Hoops then went into the box. Hehad, he said, practised as a doctor for

the past 41 years, 14 of which had beenspent in Cardiff, He lived at' Cardiff withhis wife and three children. In 1914, hewent on, he became very busy, and duringthe past two or thrs-r /ssrg he had beenworn out with wovk ai.j *>rrow.

At this stage the accused broke down,and Mr. Francis-Williams (for the de-fence) added that his sorrow had beencaused by the death of his eldest son inaction.

Accused explained that Mrs. Davids l«ada child, and he attended her in her con-finement. That war, in IST?, and fromthat time on he had attended her andother members of her family. She ?. <*cameshort of money, and had to earn her ownliving as a tram conductress. She regis-tered with him as a panel patient. OnMarch 8 last deceased came to his sur-gery and complained of abdominal pains,and later on she made a similar com-plaint. He went to the house at 8.30, andthe girl informed hira that the pains hadnot discontinued.

Continuing, he said that when deceasedinformed him that something untowardhad happened he said he would examineher, and he asked for the presence of hermouhea. The examination then took place,and an anaesthetic was administered.

'■' My Nerves Were Bad."Counsel: Was there anything unusual in

your administering it alone? I havedone it for the last 40 years. These peoplecould not afford to pay for an assistant." My head was bad, my nerves were bad,"said accused, " and the instrument mighthave slipped. 1 soon realised the damageI had done. I lost my head completely,the horror of the thing was so awfuL I.stayed at the house all night until nearlyseven o'clock in the morning. I was justas though I had lost my senses."

Mr. Francis-Williams: How came youto describe the cause of death on the cer-tificate as pneumonia and influenza? Iwas frightened out of my wits about it.There was a lot of influenza going about,and people were dying. It occurred to methat if I pave a certificate to say she diedafter an operation people would think Ipromoted illegalities. It was a greattrouble to me at the time. I lost my'.joy, my son, arid I have had moneytroubles. I have gone to patients' housesin th< .orning and gone back in the after-noon thinking I had not been there at all.1 lost my head, and I was in a verynervous state. I had loss of memory,could not sleep at night, and when Iwould drop off to sleep I would shout out' ha name of my lost boy.

REMARKABLE COLLISION.

BIPLANE AND MOTOR-CAR..'.

... : t ..y

PASSENGERS* LUCKY ESCAPE.A remarkable mishap occurred at Lon-

don (Ontario), when a biplane and amotor-car fame into collision within thecity limits.

The biplane had recently been purchasedin Toronto by two American aviators.

They were flying from Toronto to Elk-hart by easy stages, and landed at Londonin a small field which gave them little op-portunity to rise. A neighbouring farmerin a large touring car with seven pas-sengers stopped to watch the aircraft rise.

The passengers alighted to get a betterview. The" biplane caught the top of atree when rising, toppled,..and fell squarelyon the top of the car less than fifteenseconds after the passengers had left it.

The air machine straddled across the carand released the brakes. The car ran awaywith the biplane and collided with anothercar, when it stopped. Both the cars andthe aeroplane were badly wrecked, but nopersons were injured.

"LADY DIANA" INJURED.

PALL THROUGH A SKYLIGHT.While watching the Hyde Park peace

celebration fireworks Lady Diana Cooper,better known as Lady Diana Manners,met with a serious accident.

With a party of friends Lady Dianawent, after dinner, to the residence ofMajor Norman E. Holden—son of SirEdward Holden, chairman- of the London-{Joint City and Midland Bank GreenStreet, Park Lane, to witness the displayfrom & convenient roof, and, in the dark-ness, stepped backwards through a sky-light, falling 20ft to the floor below.Harrying down to the landing, where shelay, her friends found her in great pain,and it was necessary to administer chloro-form before it was possible to move her.She was found to be suffering from a frac-tured thigh, and also slight cuts frombroken glass.

Ladv Diana, whose marriage on June2 to Mr. Duff Cooper, D.5.0., was theprincipal society event of the Londonseason, only returned to London from herhoneymoon recently. General public sym-pathy was aroused by her unfortunatemishap. The hold which, as Lady DianaManners, daughter of the Duke of Rut-land, she had on popular affection wasshown by the immense interest taken inher marriage.

This is the second accident that LadyDiana has sustained in the month of July.In July, 1915, she fractured a leg.

She en-countered tempestuous weather and whenoff Trevose Head her master, notwith-standing that a gale was still blowing, puther on a course for Lundy and hoistedmore sail. During the night the foresailjib, and forestaysail

#

were torn to ribbonsand part of the rigging was carried away.

When Lundy was sighted the master be-gan to show signs of mental derangement.It was said that he wanted to run thevessel ashore, and that he ordered theship's boats to be launched and the an-chors dropped. He also pointed-his fingerat imaginary beings in the shrouds," who,be said, were threatening him, and spokeof a Bosche submarine which threw spells.

The mate thereupon took charge, decidingto return to Swansea. About midday onthe 23rd the master, who appeared to have

become more rational, resumed the com-mand and shortly afterwards he hoistedflag "signals for towage assistance, havingpreviously fired the ship's gun as a dis-tress signal, although the Augusta, accord-ing to her crew, was seaworthy, undercontrol, and steering a course for Swansea.In response to these signals the steamshipGreenbatt came up, but refused to tow.The master then ordered a boat to be low-eredj and the mate and two gunners toget into it. This they did, and while theywere waiting for further orders the boatgave a sudden lurch and one of the gun-ners fell overboard and was drowned- Themate and the other gunner then went onboard the Greenbatt and induced that ves-sel to take the Augusta in tow, but thetow rope parted and the Greenbatt leftwith a promise to send tug assistance fromPenartb,

The master of the Augusta then gaveorders to the helmsman .to follow theGreenbatt. This was done while the steam-ship was in sight, after which the schoonerwas steered towards some lights. These,however, proved to be shore lights, andthe crew on their own initiative turned thevessel round. The master went below,bat shortly afterwards came on deck againwith a revolver and began shooting at thesidelights. He then went below again,but was called when the Briton arrived,whereupon he began shouting and firingthe revolver at random, and the helmsmanwas wounded. /

The master was then overpowered bythe crew and locked in his cabin, wherehe continued firing for some time. Sub-sequently the Augusta was towed by theBriton to Cardiff, where the cabin'doorwas reopened by the police, and the mas-ter was found to have shot himself throughthe head and was dead.

Mr. Justice Horridze upheld the tenderand pave judgment for defendants, withcosts from the date of the tender.

TRAGEDY AT A SCHOOL.YOUNG MASTER SHOT DEAD.

\ SAD PEACE DAY INCIDENT._ A tragic affair occurred at Xaverian

College, Brighton, England, recently, an.assistant master, Mr. Vincent"Fothergill,aged twenty-four, being accidentally shotdead while sitting on the lawn in thecollege grounds.

It seams that a pupil had occasion to goto the room of another master, Mr. F.Wearden, and saw a revolver in a drawer.Ha said to Mr. Wearden, "You havegot a topping revolver here." Mr. Wear-den replied, "Yes; and as it is PeaceDay I think I will have » shot." Heloaded the revolver with a cartridge andfired through the open window high intothe air.

An ex-pupil named Low, aged seventeen,'on a visit to bis old college, hearing thereport, entered the room and asked if hecould have a shot. Mr. Wearden agreed,and put in another cartridge, telling Lowto aim high.

Low did so, but the revolver kickedand the shot took a downward course,and struck Mr. Fothergill, who wassome forty yards away, entering theabdomen, and killing him almost in-stantly.

MORMONPERIL IN ENGLAND.

GIRL -"CONVERTS" SOUGHT.

A PRETTY TYPISTE'S ESCAPE.Mormon missionaries have opened

another campaign in England with theobject of luring young English girls toSalt Lake City.

For some considerable time past warn-ings have been issued by various auth-orities against certain agencies offering toprovide husbands for would-be brides

A case having a very important bear-ing on this question was heard at Bow-street, when Florence Papworth, anattractive girl of nineteen, employed asa typist, was bound over on a charge ofmaking false statements to secure a pass-port.

Mr. Harold Peafce, of the Treasury, whoprosecuted, said that there was ample evi-dence that Mormon missionaries were atwork. The girl's parents lived at Peter-borough, but her work was in London,and she became acquainted with someMormons, among whom was a missionarynamed Linford.

In an application which she made for apassport, proceeded Mr. Pearce, Pap-worth said she wished to go to Ogden,Utah, to join her " guardian." She hadno guardian there. The application wasmade three times, and on each occasionthe false statement was repeated.

When these applications were refusedthe girl said she wished to go to theStates to marry an American soldier.She forged her parents' names to thedeclaration of assent.

Incidentally it was mentioned that abranch of the "Latter Day Saints" wascarrying on operations in South Totten-ham.

The girl's father, a farm labourer, saidthat Mr. Linford, whom he knew, calledonce or twice at their house. Beforethat he had written from Utah inquiringabout some distant relation.

Mr. Pearce: Your wife's grandmotherwas sister of his granmother?—Somethinglike that. (Laughter.) My girl has beenin service and has learned typing. I amnot in favour of her going to America tojoin the Mormons.

Mr. Graham Campbell said he was in-clined to think that, in spite of the factthat the girl was in good employment inLondon, it would be better if she wereto return to her parents at Peterborough.He bound her over for twelve months inthe sum of £5", on condition that she wentto live at home.

TRAITORS TO DIE.

THE INFORMERS OF LAON.

DRAMATIC COUET INCIDENT.The last day of the trial of the in-

formers of Laon in Paris -was marked bya dramatic incident when Thomas, theGerman police agent, at the conclusion ofhis defence, pleaded for mercy for all theaccused,' saying:

" I would ask your indulgence fox myfellow-prisoners. It is true that they havesuffered long and cruelly., If the Germanshad not brought this odious war upon you,all of them would have remained honestpeople. Once more I ask for them yourpardon."

The following sentences were subse-,quently pronounced on the accused:

Georges Toque, Alice Aubert, GeorgesRoselle, Helene Favre, Georges Lochet,Moise Lemoine, Herbert Leandre, and Gas-ton Venet were all condemned to death.

A number of others were sent to prison,and Elieville Kaltenbach, Marie Petroi,Louis Marguet, Angele Herpson, LucienKirgis, and Adelet Kirgis were acquitted.

Thus ends the trial -of the traitors who,at the instigation of the German policeagent, Emil Thomas, betrayed their com-patriots to the Germans during the occupa-tion of Laon, with the result that a num-ber of French inhabitants of the town wereexecuted on charges of helping France byconcealing wounded soldiers.

DRAMA OF VENGEANCE.

REJECTED LOVER HANGED.

Behind the "execution" of a so-calledBolshevik agent, named Ardasjeff, atStockholm, alter a " court-martial" onwhich women served as jurora, lies thestory of a beautiful girl's revenge.

A Copenhagen message says that twomore persons have been arrested in con-nection with the murder. They are ayoung Russian naval officer, namedBittenbinder, eon of the admiral who wasarrested when endeavouring to flee to Den-mark, and the well-known General Gysser,who was present, together with hi 17-year-old daughter, when Ardasjeff wasmurdered.

It appears that Ardasjeff spent 28 hoursin a villa outside Stockholm before he waskilled, during which time he was tied to achair without food or water.

In the middle of the night members ofthe " league" arrived, and a court wasformed consisting of about twenty persons.

After a short discussion the "league"unanimously decided that Ardasjeff shouldbe put to death, and he was hanged in thepresence of the young Miss Gysser, whohated him because he had rejected herlove.

I Miss Gysser, adds the message, is re-I puted to be one of the most beautifulwomen in Sweden.

presenting the chiefs of the Sudan tribeswaited on the King at Buckingham Pal-ance and presented a loyal address inArabic.

A son of the late Mahdi presented HisMajesty with a golden sword, which is arepresentation of a legendary weapon sup-posed to have been sent from heaven, andis surrendered as a token of submission.

alleged murder by poisoning and shootingof an old man named Jabez Wilson,seventy-one years of age. by a girl ofsixteen, Cora Vanstaden, on a lonely farmin the Humaasdorp district of CapeColony.

The accused girl was entrusted toWilson to educate and provide for herfuture, and it was stated that at the pointof a revolver he compelled her to be hismistress.

BLUEBEARD COMEDY.

LANDRU PATRONISES JUDGE.The irrepressible Landru, " The modern

Bluebeard," was again examined in Parisrecently, regarding Mme. Cuchet, whodisappeared with her son at the end ofApril, 1915.

Landru, taking shelter behind hisplighted word, refuses persistently to tellwhere they are. He is reproached withhaving rented in the name of Cuchet awarehouse in which he stored the missingwoman's furniture. •

The Judge: Did your son, who helpedyou in the removal, know the furniturewas not yours?— son knew nothing.

"Do you mean to say he asked noquestions?"

Landru, with the gesture of a Romanfather, replied: "Sir when I order, mychildren obey."

To underline the effect produced by thisreply he added, "Of course M. Ie Juge,I ignore the way you bring up yourchildren,"

Before. this retort the judge failed topreserve his gravity.

On leaving the judge, the accused re-marked to his advocate :

"Don't youthink, dear M*itre, that our friend Bonin(the judge) cross-examines me with ex-cessive insistency? Now I couldn't getdown to that sort of thing. All mygentlemanly instincts, all my sesthetiorefinement, would cry aloud in protest.Wonderful, is it not, that a judicialeducation can metamorphose a man intoa beast?"

LIBERTY FOR CAGE BIRDS.

NOVEL PEACE CELEBRATIONS.To celebrate peace, and at the same time

instil in your minds a lesson on the dutyof kindness to animals, thirty bird cageswere placed in the playground of ElmRoad School, New Maiden, England, andburnt in the presence of about 200 chil-dren, who afterwards sang the NationalAnthem.

The cages and their feathered occupantsformed the stock-in-trade of a man whohad opened a bird-dealer's shop at NewMaiden, and had been purchased by Mrs.E. M. Nelson, superintendent of the Mai-den Band of Mercy, a great lover of birdsand animals, who at once gave the birdstheir liberty. Mrs. Nelson also bought thegoodwill of the business, so that the shophas been shut up and has not been openedsince.

For many years Mrs. Nelson has la-boured in the interest of animals. Bycontinual expostulation with bird-catcherson the spot, and threats of prosecutionwhen found trespassing, this cruel form oflivelihood has been stamped out in thedistrict, and in every instance the bird-catcher has been compelled to liberate hisdecoys and his '"catch."

POPE AND NO HATE.

GLAD BLOCKADE IS LIFTED.The Pope has sent the Catholic Bishops

of Germany a letter, in which he ex-presses his joy at the end of the blockade,which, he says, made numerous victimsamong the non-combatants.

His Holiness urges Christian charity inthe work of repairing the damage causedby the war, and expresses hie confidencethat civilised nations, especially Catholic,will aid the populations which are indesperate straits.

The Pope concludes his letter by urgingthat all feelings of hatred towards formerenemies must be got rid of.

NOISELESS AIR ENGINES.

EXPERIMENTS IN GERMANY.A message from Zurich states that

several large German works, Krupps ofEssen among them, are conducting, inmost profound secrecy, experiment* witha new aviation motor, much superior tothe motor as hitherto known. They haveconstructed a gas turbine, one of themain advantages of which is to give air-planes an almost noiseless flight. Giantairplanes capable of carrying sixty-fourpersons have been built with the 'newmotor.

There was no foundationfor the construction " I wish I were anhour with you." "C. Y. K." meant"Consider yourself kissed," and " S. W.A. K." " Sealed with a kiss."

When a Greek named Aristotle JohnAntypus appeared in the dock at theLondon Central Criminal Court, chargedwith burglary, counsel for the prosecutionsaid: "I should imagine that it is thefirst time Aristotle has appeared in thedock, and it requires no little courageto proceed against such an honouredname." Aristotle came to England byway of Rumania >and Russia, and his shipwas torpedoed on the way. He was sentto prison for six months' hard labour.

" GHOST OF ASMODAL."The Visit of the " Ghost of Asmodal M

to a house in Culverstone Crescent, Dal-*ston, was one of the reasons given atbhoreditch County Court why Aaron Mns-covitch desired to regain "possession ofcertain rooms from Melig isiemlon, a Bel-gian refugee. Museovitch complained tnaiSiemlon slaughtered fowls in las bedroom, ■and the stairs were constantly runningwith blood. Every Saturday night Siem-'lon carried out Jewish rites," which meantmaking a loud noise until the early hoursof the morning. Clothes were also washedupstairs, and the water trickled throughthe floor on to a bed. Kera Museovitch, .a son, said that the rites mentioned werehanded down from the Pharisees. A greatnoise was necessary to force down theghost which belonged to a legend of the ,Queen of Sheba. Siemlon, who gave evi- •dence through a Jewish minister, saidthat he ceased to slaughter fowls when "

a complaint was made. Ha was obligedto perform the rites because he was a' •'

Jew, but there was no noise. Judge '?

THE COUNTERBALANCE.BY PAUL TRENT.

CHAPTER XXX.-(Continued).The bride and bridegroom slipped away

quietly—only Sir John accompanied themto the car, and Ruth was left alone withHurst.

" I nearly came to see you when I washome about six months ago. In fact I didlook in at the hut and saw you working,Perhaps it's Fate that brought us togetheragain."

" How i 8 Geoffrey?" she asked with ant!!ort.

" 1 don't see very much of him. He'sa born tighten and can t get" too much ofit. 1 wonder he hasn't been killed longa ho. He takes risks enough. The menhave get an idea that he bears a charmed.life. When 1 was wounded—six'monthsage —we had a few words, and we talkedabout you. I understand that you andhe— 'I hero is no engagement of any kindbetween you. Is that, true?"

1 don't know, she answered miser- !»biv

Ruth, I have not changed. Once I told'you 1 loved you, and asked you to be mywife. Will you?"

" I shall never marry."" You care for Geoffrey!"" More than I can say." "

" VViiatic keeping you apart? Is it thatwretched letter?"

" Yesthere is nothing else. Before hawent away 1 wanted him to marry me,but he refused."" I believe J. understand him better thanmost people. I used to know him so well.

He in eaten up with pride—that is hisone great fault. He hates me now because1 know of that letter."

" Sir John knows. Gerald knows* andhe doesn't hate him. 1 think you arewronc;."

" F.»th, I could be*, content with tbosecond best. I have no pride where youare concerned. Will you give me a chanceof making you care?"

" I love Geoffrey. If I can't marryhim, I shall remain single."

"But—Ruth—"However, Sir John returned to the

room, and soon afterwards Hurst wentaway" I want to go and work in a hut in

France," Ruth announced to the baronet.•' I'm going round to the headquartersof the Y.M.C.A., and find out how to getappointed there. Will you help me?"" I'll go round with you."They were referred to a house in the

West End of London, the headquarters ofthe committee who appointed the womenworkers for France, where they obtainedforms, which Ruth filled, up and for-warded at once. A few days later shewas summoned for an interview, at whichshe was asked many personal questions,which she quite appreciated to be neces-sary.

And it appeared that Sir John knewthe lidy who had summoned her." You are the type of woman we want,"

the lady said to her. "One with a senseof responsibility, and sympathetic. Thereis only one drawback—your youth, but Ihave had an excellent report from theleader of the hut where you have beenworking. When can you go?"" At once—the sooner the better," Ruth

answered eagerly.hen she reached Sir John's house,

Gerald and Ethel had returned from theirhoneymoon. .

"Where have you bidden yourselves?"Ruth asked of them.

"In the best hiding-place London.We've had a gorgeous tune," Gerald saidhappily.

" I thought he" would never stop eat-ing," was Ethel's laughing remark. " Iwas quite ashamed of him."" I've been making up for the past,

ami providing for the future," he saidwith a chuckle. Y" Ruth, is Sir John about?" Ethel de-manded suddenly.

"He is coming into dinner," Ruthanswered, and then went on to tell of herapplication to work in France. She quiteexpected that Ethel would announce herintention of accompanying her, and whenher friend said nothing, she looked at .herqufcstioningly. "Are you going back tothe hut ?" she asked.

" I don-'t know what I'm going to do.I want to talk to Sir John."

Gerald glanced at her quickly, andthen moved to her side.

"No nonsense, Ethel. We've settledthat question," he said sternly.

"You may have settled it. I haven't,"she answered coldly.

" Surely you are not quarrelling al-ready," Ruth protested with a laugh.

"No, not quarrelling—merely a clashof wills."

"Can't I help vou to decide?" askedRuth.

"I've some shopping to do. Comealong, Ethel," Gerald said peremptorily,and drew her away.

Ruth watched them leave the room, andwondered what could have happened. Shecould see that Ethel was seriously upset.A little later she was fated to be presentwhen the matter in question was dis-cussed. Sir John came in to tea, and halfan hour later Ethel and Gerald appeared.The former ran forward impetuously andembraced Sir John, staring defiantly ather husband.

CHAPTER XXXI."Dad, I want to talk to you," Ethel

said, and endeavoured to draw him away." I intend to be present at this talk,"

Gerald broke in grimly."Perhaps I had. better go away," sug-

gested Ruth." No— I think you will back me

up," Gerald said quickly."Well—what's the trouble?"' Sir Johnasked, pleasantly.Ethel drew in a deep breath, and her

eyes were alight with excitement."I've asked Jerry to apply for a com-

mission. If vou went to the War Officelie need not go back to the front. Hewould have to stay La London to get hisuniform and al! that sort of thing. Ican't let hi"' go yet," she said passion-ately.

Sir John understood, and perhaps sym-pathised with her."

Jhat do you say he asked his son., ' �*"thing doing. I'm going back toth* trenches when my leave's that'stomorrow."

'Jerry—you can't love me," Ethelcried vehemently.Ruth was amazed at the great changein her friend. She. had imagined Ethel tobe the last woman in the world to makesu .) an appeal.

" Now, Ethel we have had this out be-fore, I am rather;d Appointed in you.( ome along and 111 , rv to make vou seemy point of view.

It was about an hour after they hadgone to bed that Ruth went to Ethel'sroom and knocked at the door. Therewas no answer, so she quietly enteredand approached the bed. Ethel wascrying quietly to herself, but stopped atthe sound of her friend's voice.

"Why did you come?" she said. "Ipromised Jerry I would brave, but Icant.when I'm alone. I imagine suchdreadful things. »It was bad enoughbefore—but—-now—" 6

'Ethel, dear, if Gerald -were to beSilled you will have memories. You loveone another, and you are husband andwife. I would give the world to be ableto say the same thing. It is shameful tocry, even when you are alone. Ido notcry, and the man I love is in the trenchesnow— this moment. And if Geoffreywere to die I have nothing—nothing."" I didn't know you thought like that,"Ethel whispered.'' Prayers shouldbe on your lips andnot tears in your eves."" You can't understandyou are not awife.""Time enough for tears when he isdead. Show the same courage that ourmen are showing.""I won't cry—but don't leave me.Im so lonely. I thought I was brave,but I'm just realising I'm a coward."Ruth stayed till Ethel was asleep, andthen went to her own room. She hadforgotten to give Gerald a message for

Geoffrey. It had been necessary to speaksternly to Ethel but tears were verynear her own eyes. Each moment shedreaded to hear that he was dead.Already site was looking forward to

going to France. It. would be somethingto be in the zone of the armies.Tu due course the permits arrived.

Ethel had been accepted as a worker. Atlast the day of their departure arrived.When they set out for the station withSir John each of the girls wore brassardswith the sign of the Red Triangle. Theycaught the earlier boat train, for therewas _ only cue route to France open tocivilians, and naturally there was a greatcrowd. A cabin on the steamer had beenreserved some days ago, and upon theirarrival at the port they went straight onboard and prepared for bed.

When they went on deck in the morn-ing the coast of France could be seen inthe distance.

The steamer came alongside the quay,where a number of people were gathered.

" There's a girl with a Y.M. brassard,"remarked Ruth, and this lady came upto them as soon as they were allowedashore.

"Mrs. Statham and Miss Wynne?" sheasked briskly.

•Yes"" Thtre's a Y.M. car outside, which willtake ycu to headquarters, when you can

get hold of your baggage. You'll wanta bit of patience," she said, with a smil-ing face. " Your passports must be vised,and your permits taken to the A.P.M.'soffice. See you later," she said, and wentforward to greet a woman with a babyin her arms.

" A capable girl. I like her," remarkedRuth.

Afterwards she learnt that each daythis lady met the boat and took care ofthe relatives—mothers, fathers, and wives

our dangerously wounded, who hadeome over, often, alas! to witness thedying moments of their beloved. AndRuth learnt that the Y.M.C.A., -wherenecessary, found lodgings and food, andgenerally looked after these sorrowingpeople.

It was another capable girl in chargeof the car outside. Business-like andbrisk, she was soon driving them: throughthe town. There were British soldierseverywhere, and in the»central ■ squarethere was a sign bearing the Rrd TriangleK

'directing them with an arrow to a placewhere they could obtain refreshment.

At the headquarters, they were receivedby the local secretary, and told that theywere to go to a"hut up the valley, a fewmiles away. It appeared that rooms hadbeen engaged for them, and they couldgo out at once.

Directions were given to them, andthey were"very soon settled in a comfort-able house, with a charming old French-woman as landlady. Later on their lug-gage arrived, and after a cup of tea, theydrove up the valley to the hut. Thebuilding was very similar to those inEngland, and they went round to theside door. A man in his shirt-sleeves wasbusily cutting up cake. A lady wasdividing rolls and placing butter on them.The latter gave a cry.

" Tea so glad' you've come. We'redreadfully shorthanded. Come in. Whichis Mrs. Statham? How do you do, bothof you. Will you take off your hate?We can lend you overalls, if you haven'tbrought your own."

The leader came forward and greetedthem. A quiet man, with steady eyes,and an air of capability. It was nearlyfive o'clock, and within a. few minutes oftheir arrival Ruth and Ethel were hardat work behind the counter. At first itwas very strange, for there was theFrench money, and prices were different;but it is wonderful how soon one canget into the ways of a hut.

Ruth had not much time to look at.the men. Later on she found that mostof them had not yet been " up the line"to the front, but there were some whohad been there, and having been woundedwere waiting to return there.

When nine o'clock came they were bothvery tired, and glad to get back home.-" I like it better than England," Ethel

announced emphatically, when they werein their car, which they had forwardedfrom England."It's because one feels one is more in

the middle of things. I like all the peoplein the hut. They seem a happy family."

"Did you bear two drafts go past*with the bagpipes? The boys were goingup the line. It's horrible to think thatmen we have been serving may be per-haps dead a few hours hence."

Their landlady had a nice supper await-ing them, and iseemed very anxious tobe friendly. She was overjoyed that theyboth spoke French, for the ladies whohad just gone only knew a few words,so conversation had been very difficult.

Upon reaching the hut in the morningthey ascertained that their car was to boat the disposal of the hut. and it wouldbe necessary for one of them to driveinto the town each day.

" We'll take it in turns," Ethel saidpromptly, and bo it was agreed.

The work was strenuous, but full ofinterest all the time. Our men out the*rein a foreign country seemed more in needof a hut and human sympathy than thoseat home. From the outset they noticedthat there were large attendances at thereligious services, and that the hymnswere sung with remarkable fervour.

Men from various regiments attendedthe hut. In fact, with the exception ofthe canteens, there was nowhere else for

| them to go. Whenever the hut was openI the tables were fully occupied by meni writing letters. The demand for the free; distribution of stationery was tremen-

, dons.-j Both Ruth and Ethel were thoroughlycontent with their work. There was noattempt at amusement, for they were

I much too tired to go into the town ex-! eppt on business. When they had beenI at the hut for a few months, Ethel re-

ceived a letter from Gerald telling her to! go to one of the hospitals.I " I've received a very slight wound in; the hand, but they are not sending mej home. Come up and see me. You had' better ask for the matron, and get roundher. I want to see Ruth, but the cancome later." M

I "Hp says a wound," Ethel saidbreathlessly, as the handed the letter to

'Ruth." Take the car and go round at once.

We can manage without you. Find outwhy Gerald wants to see me. It maybe about Geoffrey. Don't forget in your

. excitement.""All tight." Ethel cal'ed back. There

was a smile on her face, but there wasfear in her eyes.

THE HAMMERS OF HATE.BY GUY THORNE, '

Author of "When It Was Dark," " A LostCause," Etc.

■

(COPYRIGHT.)

The McGregor family have for many yearsowned a private dock at Liverpool, and ontfie de*th of his father. Ivor, now the lastot tee family, returns from his travels intUe near, east, to set the affairs of the dockin.order. William Laingr and John Blacow,two trusted lieutenants of his father, takehim on bowd an old hulk which lies in the

•fu b */"a' and wWch has been fitted up Iwith extreme luxury as a residence. Theyshow to him a new substance which they Icall rubber glass"—transparent, and of Igreat toughness and resilience— sole ;rights of the manufacture of which were in ithe possession of the elder Mr. McGregor. A iletter tells Ivor that it was his father's wishtn&« & submarine covered-entirely with thetransparnt rubber glass should besecrecy m the dock, and offered to the Go-vernment. While Ivor is Hone on the hulkthat night a beautiful girl visits him.

CHAPTER /Continued.)The girl looked at Ivor with surprise.

" You are treating me a thousand timesmore kindly than I deserve," she said, andthere was wonder in her voice. " Youknow nothing of me—"

He bowed without speaking, and thenshe said a thing that made him start inhis chair.

"Mr. McGregor, I have heard every-thing that has been said in this room to-night! I know your tremendous secret!"

A slight exclamation escaped from himand he flushed under his tan. So she wasa spy then after all! And yet . . .

She went on speaking rapidly. " I'mvery rich indeed. Don't mortgage thedock, I'll write you a cheque for the fiftvthousand pounds you want to complete thewonderful boat. Please, please let me do

and hqlp me.""Do you mind if I light a cigarette andwalk up and down the room," Ivor asked,

lor again that night his mind was incap-able of taking in all that he heard, andhe seemed to be moving in a wild fantasticdream." She understood him instantly. "Of

course," she said, " you must think I'mmad or worse, Mr. McGregor, but I'm not.As I have said before, I am in the mostterrible trouble and only you and yourmarvellous boat when it "is completed canhelp me."

Ivor's mind had begun to work quickly.That the girl was genuine he had notthe slightest doubt, nor that her offer wasgenuine also. What did it all mean?"Of course, I can say nothing till Ihear more," he said quietly."Then you -will listen to me after spy-ing upon you in the way I did? I had

hardly dared to hope it, but I was des-perate. I have no right to ask you totreat what I have to tell you as a secret—-especially as I have just heard your own.But if you do not help me—and there isno real reason why you should— swear toyou by all that I" hold holy I'll neverbreathe a word Of what I have heard to-night."

All the chivalry in Ivor's nature wasaroused. Your 'secret whatever it is, is

• safe with me," he told her.' "Tell it me| in your own way."

"I expect you-know my name," she saidwith a faint smile. "I am Margaret

, Saintsbury, of Ben Scourie," and directly; she had given him her name the girl'smanner changed slightly. It became moreconfident now that she was no longeranonymous.

| Ivor knew the name instantly; whatnorth countryman did not? So this thenwas the lovely Miss Saintsbury, daughterof Sir Angus. Saintsbury, the great Scotch

1 baronet, sportsman, traveller, and ownerof two hundred acres, who had died notsix month's before!.

Indeed his own father had met SirAngus more than once in the past."Of course, 1 know your name, Miss

Saintsbury,'1 ha said, and then as he real-ised what it meant he stared at her -withalmost terror-stricken eyes. What was thefamous beauty and great heiress, memberof one of the oldest families in Scotland,doing here upon this old hulk alone -withhim at the dead of night?

" Good lord," he burst out, " then whathow?" Words failed him. She gave a

quaint little shake of her head, and nowshe smiled in earnest, and her face was athousand times lovelier than before."I know," she said, "it is awful! Still,

I am not alone. I couldn't have got hereby myself. An old servant of our familyis waiting in a boat."

Ivor privately thoughtthat it was a verygood thin? for the " old servant of thefamily" that he had not met with Messrs.William Laing and John Blacow. But hesaid nothing. He would let her tell herstory in her own way.

"My father, as you know, is dead,"her voice trembled slightly. "What youdo not know, what the world has not aninkling of is that his end was hastenedby a cruel and malignant persecution.You have heard of the great Scottishfamily of Kyle?"

" Yes, I have, Miss Saintsbury—theEarls of Kyle, it is a name famous inScotch history."

She nodded. "The house of Kyleowns many thousand acres adjoining ourown in the north of Scotland, and also inthe Northern Hebrides. From time im-memorial the clans of Saintsbury and Eylehave been at feud. There is an here-ditary hatred between the two families sr.dalso their retainers. I needn't go intothe history of it all from the eginntng,but during my dear father's lifetime itculminated in a direct personal conflict be-tween him and the last representative ofKyle."

She paused for a momant, and the greateyes became full of smouldering fire. Inher pride and loveliness she seemed in-deed the worthy chieftainess of an ancient.race.

There is a woman," she went on, "awidow without children, the Countess ofKyle, she is the last of the poisonousbrood. It was she who hounded myfather to his death, it is she that holdsin her power the only person in the worldI love."

For the fraction of a second Ivor ratifiedin his walk, then he recovered himself andcontinued. As she spoke the last wordshe felt as if he had received a blow. Itwas utterly unreasonable, entirely stupid,but a real pang of anger had passedthrough his heart.

" I have heard of the Countess of Kyletoo," he said quickly, " there's some mys-tery about her, is there not? She nevergoes to Court, or is seen in society, andthey say she is very beautiful."

" Yes," the girl answered., slowly, "sheis beautiful, but it is an evil beauty. Asnake in the sunlight is beautiful! Sheis forty-five, and looks like a girl of myown age, and I believe," she went onwith a rising aote of passion in her voice." I believe she knows the secrets of hellitself! Mr. McGregor, my brother, mydear brother Angus, is in that woman's '

power, and she will ruin him body andsoul!"

I Ivor came to the table and sat down.Her brother! He was pervaded by asense of unutterable relief. " I see now,"he said, " Miss Saintsbuiry, you want meto help you for your brother's sake ?"

There were tears in her eyes as she an-swered him. "You are the only hope Ihave in the world," she said, " strange asit may seem, no one can help me butyou."

Ivor flung prudence to the winds. Hisneart leaped up with wild delight to thinkthat he could serve her. i

! " Miss Saintsbury," he said, " you can ;count on me, I am absolutely at your ser- !vice." j

The ring of sincerity in his voice was 1unmistakable. She looked him full in jI the face for a moment, and then bowinghoi' head upon her hands, burst into Itears. |

It was a most awkward predicament.'■ Ivor did not know in the least what to \

! say or do. The situation was utterly I: beyond his experience, and he felt utterly '•

I helpless. Only a few hours ago he hadj been sitting in the grillroom of ' the

■ Adelphi Hotel without a thought of themarvellous tale he was to hear, and sub-limely unconscious of the web of circum- jstances which was about to enmesh him.And now! . . He could have laughedat the trick fate was playing with him,were it not for the sobbing girl, and thd

j air of tragedy that had stolen into the IDoom like an unseen, vajjoux,, 1

At length she raised-her head, the sobssubsiding a little. *.' lam so very sorry,"she murmured, "but the strain has beengreat, and you are so kind.. I could nothelp it, but I am better now." '

Ho got her a glass of water, remainingaway a/minute or two to give her time tocompose herself, and when he returnedthere was hardly a trace of her formeremotion, though in the flickering light ofthe two candles, her face was very pale." You were telling- me about your bro-

ther, Miss Saintsbury," Ivor said; "he isin some danger ?"

He is in the very greatest," she an-swered. •

" He has disappeared.""Disappeared! But surely he can be

found. People do not disappear nowa-days with ease, especially anyone likeyour brother— is Sir Ancue Saintsbury,now, of course. Surely detectives—"

"This is no case for. detectives," sheanswered quickly. "My brother left ourhouse in Berkeley Square, London, nearlya month ago, under curious circumstances,though of his own free will. I live therewith my aunt, Lady Steyning, when weare not in Scotland. Angus would nottell us where he was going, and I am cer-tain that he is in the power of that wo-man. She has sworn to be revenged onmy family.""Then if you know where the Countess

of Kyle is, and your presumption is right,you know where your brother is?"" You have come to the point," she

said; "it is because Ido know or becauseI am at least morally certain, that I havecome to you for help, and to you only.Have you ever heard of RavenrockIsland?"

_ She uttered the words with peculiarsignificance and it was at that momentthough only dimly the light began tobreak in upon him.

" I have sailed past it many a time inmy yacht when I was younger. It is agrim, forbidding-looking place, and no oneis allowed to land there. I believe no-body lives upon it but a couple of care-

takers. It is some miles north of Bar-row. My yacht was once at MorecambeBay, so that's how I know."

" You never knew to whom it be-longed?"

" Never; I have heard that there's aruined castle on it, and they say there areimmense sea caverns opening into a lake,in the centre of the island."" It has belonged for generations to the

Earls of Kyle, as remote and desolate aplace jas any found round the shores ofEngland. There are many legends con-nected with it. Six years ago the Coun-tess of Kyle had a fleet of ships sailingbetween the island and the mainland.Great building operations continued for along period. It is said that this womanhas built herself a marvellous boose, ut-terly inaccessible to everyone but thosesue chooses to allow upon the island. In-deed, Mr. McGregor,

#I know more about

that island than anyone that has nba ac-tually been there. I have set agents towork in Morecambe, Ulversten, in all thecoast villages as far as Whitehaven andSt. Bees. My agents have gathered amass of information from fishermen andothers."

"And the result?" Ivor askedby nowhis whole interest was alight, the sailorand the explorer, the man who had passedmany dangers for the mere sport thatthey afforded, was awake in him. Hewas beginning to guess at her purpose,and if he guessed aright here was an ad-venture after his own heart."Briefly it is this," she continued.

" The principal method of entrance to theisland is by an iron stairway in the sideof a high cliff—the island has no ordinaryshore. It rises sheer out of the water onall sides. At the foot of the stairwaythere is a small hole, which shelters anyvessel going there with stores or passen-gers. At the head of the stairway thereis a gate-bouse with a massive door, andthis is guarded night and day. Oh, be-lieve me, I have left nothing to chance!The whole purpose of my life is to enterthat mysterious place and see what is

going on there—whether my brother is ahelpless captive or not; whether he isalive even. This may seem to you asmuch ado about nothing. But please re-member that you have only heard thebriefest outline of what has happened inthe past. It would take me far too longto tell you now. Let me only say, andlet me beg of you with all my heart tobelieve me, that something more sinisterand wicked than we dream of is in prolgress upon that lonely rock, which for allpractical purposes is as remote from usas St. Helena itself."

" But there is a way, or you would notbe here to-night, am I not right, MissSaintsbury?"

"Yes!" she answered, and the colourbegan to flow into her face. " The seaflows into a great cavern which winds itsway for nearly a mile inland. The islandis shaped like a cup, the great cliff walls,which are all that can be seen from thesea, forming the sides. Most of thecentre is occupied by a great marine lake.The mouth of the cavern is under water,and there's only one thing in the worldthat can reach" the centre of the islandin secret."

"My submarine!" said Ivor, with ashout l3ce a boy.

" To-morrow I will give you the moneyto complete it. Spare no expense what-ever. If it costs three times fiftythousand pounds that matters nothing atall to me if only it will hasten com-pletion."

Ivor's face fell suddenly. "But I can-not accept this money, Miss Saintsbury,"he said, "I had not thought of it before,but it's quite impossible. 1 can, mort-gage the dock quite enough and—"

THE GARDEN.At this season of the year flowering

shrubs render the shrubbery and mixedborders particularly interesting and at-tractive. Guelderoses, or snowballs asthey are commonly called, lilacs,weigelias, and spiraeas are laden with theutmost profusion of blossoms, and are themost popular and best of the many hardyshrubs now ia flower. The common lilac,with its many sub-varieties, is one of themost beautiful of all. Viburnum opulus,the European snowball, and plicatum, theJapanese, also tomentosum, with its whitebunches of hydrangea-like blossoms■wreathed along every stem, the two first-named being laden with large balls ofsnow-white flowers, stand , conspicuousobjects in the garden. Weigelias or Dier-villas are profuse flowers of most showyappearance and easy culture. SpiraeaReevesii, both the single and double-flowered forms, are in full bloom, present-ing a mass of white.

Azaleas.Early-flowering azaleas are coming into

flower. Rhododendrons are still inevidence. The varieties Gibsonii and frag-rantissima, with their large white azalea-like blossoms, are sweetly attractive anddelightfully periumed and most useful forcutting. Azalea mollis is rapidly burstinginto flower and leaves; the flower's of thisspecies precedes the leaves. The newgrowths upon trees and shrubs, and alsoupon all other plants, has a most refresh-ing appearance, and the many shades offoliage contrast with the flowers and lenda charm to the garden and grounds thatis not to be had at any other season butthe spring.

Clinbing Plants.Wistarias are on the move, and willshortly be in full flower. These "hardv-

climbing plants are adapted for a varietyof purposes. Planted to train along theverandah front or to ramble over the per-gola, or distributed here and there inthe shrubbery to ramble in a natural stateup the stems and amongst the branches ofthe tallest-growing shrubs and trees, they

. present a charming appearance at thisseason. Our New Zealand clematis (C.Indivisa) is always noticeable when in fullflower. This species should be much moregenerally grown. Herbaceous perennialsare growing freely, tome being already inbloom, notably columbines. The "newhybrid long-spurred varieties are a greatadvance upon the old-fashioned kinds.Carnations &vt& picotees are throwing uptheir flower stalks, which should be care-firHy supported by neat stakes. A littlefresh lime mixed with some soot anddusted on the surface around the plantsstimulates growth and keeps insects incheck. Pansies are benefited by an occa-sional application of manure water.

Cinerarias.

Likewise these plants, when in fullgrowth and flower, absorb a considerableamount of moisture and need watering.When the soil becomes regular, applica-tions of manure waterings promote vigor-ous growth and large flowers.

Flowers for the Summer.

Continue to sow seeds and also to plantselections from the many kinds now avail-able for the purpose. They are so numer-ous that there is no difficulty in stockingthe various beds and borders with a largeassortment of summer-flowering subjects.But in planting provision must be madefor the later-flowering plants, such asphlox, zinnias, celosias, portulaccas, scarletsalvias, and a few others in order to main-tain a continuous and regular succession.Seedling annuals must be carefully weeded

and properly thinned, allowing sufficientspace to those that are left to bush out."Virginian stocks have a pretty effect,especially as border plants, with theirwealth of bloom.

Time for Chrysanthemums.October is the month for planting chry-

santhemums, about the middle of themonth being soon enough to commence.Attention must be paid to the propagationof dahlias to have plants of the differentkinds ready for bedding out in November.

THE GREENHOUSE. ,

Tuberous Begonas and Gloxinias.For greenhouse decoration there are few

plants that make a more beautiful displayof flowers throughout the summer thanthe above-named plants. The numberof varieties that have been raised, andthe wide range of colours obtained, hasmade the begonias one of the mostpopular flowers. For decorating th©conservatory the begonia has few rivals,their rich and varied colours making abrilliant desplay, and the length of timethey keep in bloom, keep the house gaythroughout the summer and well into theautumn. For outside cultivation too,these plants are invaluable, the floriferouecharacter of the plants make a grand des-play. In raising them from seed, theseed should be sown in early spring, ona slight bottom heat. The soil mostsuitable being a mixture of loam leafmould, with a little silver sand. Thepans on which they are sown should bewell provided with drainage, as ibe plantsrequire abundance of water, ard the soilis liable to become sour ursle-.- thuruiifh.drainage is given,. A© eaoa as the plants

are large enough to handle they should hepicked out into pots or pans, and whenlarge enough, transferred into pots singly,and potted on from time to time accordingto requirements, adding a portion of welldecomposed manure to the soil. Tuhersthat have been dormant through thewinter will now be starting- into growth.Water must be carefully applied untilactive growth 6ets in. As soon as thebulbs' show signs of starting they shouldbe shaken free of the old soil and be re-potted in a good mixture of loam, leafmould or other decomposed vegetablemanure, with a little silver santi.Gloxinias: For greenhouse decorationduring the summer these plants have fewequals. They are extremely showy andlast a long time in flower. There areseveral varieties in cultivation, the upright,drooping, as well as the spotted andmarked varieties. The spotted andmarked kinds produce immense flowers,the throat being beautifully marked and-spotted. The upright varieties, however,make a lovely display as the flowers standerect so that the beauty of the flowersare plainly seen. The soil best suitedfor gloxinias is a good fibrous loam andleaf mould in equal parts, with a littlesand added. It is safest not to. usemanure in the soil, but to administer themanure in a liquid state when the plantsare well established. The bulbs shouldbe potted into small pots according to thesize of the bulbs, until the plants arefairly started, when they may be shiftedinto flowering pots. In the early stagesof growth water must be carefully applied,watering only when the soil shows signsof dryness. Careful attention must begiven to the temperature. The plantsthrive best in a moist regular temperature,sudden changes the plants cannot stand,as the foliage is soon injured by rust,when the plants quickly deteriorate andoften die away. When grown in a nicemoist even temperature, however, thereis little difficulty in growing these Iqyelyplants to perfection.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS."Inquirer," Te Hope: In reply to

your letter re treatment of vines, in-structions have been given from time- totime in these columns, that if closelyfollowed up would have given you all theinformation you ask, upon the bestmethods of pruning as well as the safesttime to perform the work. In factdirections are given at intervals upon theway the vines should be treated, from thetime of pruning until the fruit is matured.Your letter though somewhat vague, wouldimply that last year's laterals have beenleft unpruned, if so, it is now too lateand quite unsafe to prune at this stageof their growth. If the laterals havebeen left intact as we surmise, the safestmethod of treatment is to gradually re-duce the number of shoots on each lateral,starting from the top, and reducing thebuds until only two of the strongest shootsat the base of each lateral are left togrow. In reducing these shoots it is ofthe greatest importance that only a fewbuds should be romoved from the vinesat one time, or the loss of sap willnaturally weaken those that are left. Thesafest plan is. go over the vines each dayremoving a few here and there until thework is complete. By this means thecane will be kept furnished with fruitingwood for next season, while if the workof disbudding is carefully performed, manybranches of fruit may form on the strong-est young laterals. All such laterals assoon as sufficiently advanced should bestopped at the second or third leaf beyondwhere the branch is formed. In everycase only sufficient growth should be leftto grow that would easily cover thetrellis with foliage without any unduecrowding.

Mrs. C, Te Kowhai: Appearance ofranunculus leaves would suggest too muchmoisture or sourness of soil at the roots.Although they like plenty of moisture, toomuch would cause the leaves to turnyellow. Where ranunculi are grown thesoil should be well drained and a littleprepared compost, consisting of fibrousloam and sharp sand, with somethoroughly-decayed cow manure, added.Ranunculus belong to the buttercupfamily.

T.K. : The common primrose, the cow-slips, and the oxlip are natives of Britain.The polyanthus, which is one of the mostpopular of florists' flowers, is supposed tobe a cross between the primrose and cow-slip. The primrose produces its flowersonsingle flower stems the polyanthus pro-duces its heads of numerous flowers on stiffskins, standing well above the foliage.Primula sinensis, the Chinese primrose, istoo tender for outdoor culture, but is oneof the best and most useful of floweringplants for growing in pits. They ate easilygrown. The soil requires to be fairly ric'i,and the plants should occasionally receivea little liquid manure water or plant food.

H.D., Dargaville : Name of shrub isPittosporum cornifoliurn. It chieflygrows upon trees, being epiphytal, and isoccasionally found growing out of the ordi-nary soil or 'terrestrial. It is very dis-tinct and pretty. It is a native species.The name of the plant that you take tobelong to the pine family is Psoralea•pinnata, natural order "Leguminossß." Afree-growing and free-flowering pinnate-leaved shrub, native of South Africa, andintroduced into Auckland by the late SirGeorge Grey. It seeds freely, numerousseedlings spring up around the parentbushes, soon producing a dense clump. Itsucceeds everywhere, growing freely onthe poorest soils. As you remark, itgrows quickly and makes a good shelterhedge.

F.L., Remuera: The writer is in accordwith you as to the need for greaterdiversity in our ornamental hedges.Something out of the ordinary wouldafford a pleasing change; mixed hedgeswould have the desired effect. Polygalas,malvavisca arborea, escallonias, Leonotisleonurus, Phygelius capensis, coprosma- Ilucida, with a few callistemons, leavingout Tecoma capensis, which might takepossession, would make an ideal orna-mental evergreen hedge and be most un«common and permanent, also easily keptin order. The abovenamed are all cleanand good growers, and, with the excep-tion of the coprosma, free-flowering.There is too great a tendency to restrictthe selection to a few kinds. Kepos.

HINTS TO GARDENERS.When stable manure has to lie for sometime in a heap before application it should

be covered with about 6in of soil inorder to preserve the fertilising material.In the case of heavy soils the manure isbest dug in during autumn and winter; inthe case of light soils this should be donein spring, some time before cropping. Theundecayed portions of the manure shouldpreferably be used for the green crops(cabbage family), the more completely de-cayed portions for the root, fruit andflower crops.

In the location of -a garden it is notalways possible to choose conditions as tosunlight. It is kimportant, therefore, thatin the arrangement of the various varietiesof vegetables which are to be planted duecare should be given to the sun for thosecrops which need it most. Those plantswhich must ripen their fruits, such astomatoes and eggplant, require the greatestamount of sunshine, while lettuce, spinach,kale and other leaf crops require relativelyk's.«. liven these latter, however, should

MUSICAL and DRAMATIC.The success of the Auckland Amateur

Operatic Society's production of "TheGondoliers" leads to £he hope that thenew organisation may continue its work.But for the expense attached to suchundertakings there would seem to he nogood reason why such a society shouldnot give at least four operas a. year. Anexcellent plan to make this feasible wouldbe an amalgamation of all the amateursocieties in the Dominion, or at leastthose in the four chief centres. A schemeshould bo easily enough evolved underwhich the scenery and costumes used inan Auckland production should he sub-sequently used in Wellington, Christ-church, and Dtmedin. The cost of themcould be proportioned among the foursocieties, thus reducing the expenses toa minimum. Likewise, by the engage-ment of the same professional producer toproceed from one centre to another, andstage the same opera in each in turn, thebest results would be obtained. For thefourth production in each year competitive works should be invited. Why shouldnot the Dominion operatic societies en-courage Dominion composers and authors'?They would receive some mediocre worksno doubt, but who knows what talentnow lying dormant they might not un-earth? The suggestion is, at any rate,worthy of consideration.

Miss Florence Young will have seen30 years of theatrical life in November,1920. The noted comic opera star com-menced her stage career in "Boccaccio,produced in 1890 by the Musgrove-StewartCompany. Miss Young has been almost25 years with J. C. Williamson, Ltd. Inan interview, she stated recently: " Withthe completion of my 60 years I intendretiring into private life, or if not thenat any rate very shortly afterwards. Ishall keenly miss all the stage has longmeant to me. But my decision has beenwell thought out, and it is not at alllikely that I shall depart from it. ■

The " peace choir " of 10,000 voices, 'organised by Dr. Charles Harnss, cele-brated the Allied victory in Hyde .Park,London, on the night of July 19—a fittingconclusion to the great festivities of theday. The programme began -with a bandselection, followed by " God Save theKing." " God Bless the Prince of Wales"and the "March of the Men of Harlech 'were well sung, but it was not until '• AllPeople that on Earth do Dwell" thatthe crowd really joined in to any great,extent. The most popular items were the"Hallelujah Chorus," "The MinstrelBoy," " March of the Men of Harlech "

(followed by cheers for Lloyd George),and the soldiers chorus from "Faust. 'The immense crowd was wonderfullyorderly, and waited in the rain until thevery end without any perceptible meltingaway. i

Mr. John Junior, here with "Turn tothe Right, - * was engaged, by Messrs.Klaw and Erlanger to appear in the lead-ing part of one of their big productionsto be staged in New York." Young singers are too keen to sino-songs," stated Mr. Harry Denton in a

recent interview. "When I commencedmy studies under Garcia he would notallow me to sing a song for 12 months.Practice, practice, practice on methods,was his motto. Well, he was right, andI believe most young vocalists realise thatthere is only this one roval road tosuccess. The trouble is that so manyconsiderations affect one's course of action.It is no doubt hard from day to dayto keep to the one true course, but itis a fact that there is only one way.Apart from this, development on otherlines, interpretation and so forth, it,essential but there, everyone knowsthat."

" Nail," an all-English opera, composedby Mr. Isidore de Lara, and sung inEnglish at Covent Garden by an Englishcompany, recently attracted attention inmusical circles. The opera has an Easternsetting, but London Truth states that"the passion-laden story was not inter-preted very successfully. Mr. de Lara,the critic states, "is obviously consciousof the fact, but he can invent no themesof beauty, nor can he build up common-place material into an imposing edifice.One could not help feeling that it wasall the more regrettable that it had notbeen possible to find a worthier exampleof English opera on which .to expend somuch time and money." Miss KosinaBuckmann held a prominent place in thecast of singers.

It is understood that an amalgamationof forces is about to take. place betweenthe Paramount Pictures and Messrs. ut.and N. Tait with a view to running high-class vaudeville acts in connection withthe screening of star films throughoutNew Zealand and Australia.

Mr. Fred Dennett, the accomplishedpianist, who accompanied the JackWaller's "Look Who's Here "' Revue Com-pany on its recent Dominion tours, hasjust settled down to married life.

High praise of Mr. Harry Dearth'ssinging comes from the south, where thenoted singer and his concert party an»making an extended tour. Each concertincludes operatic and oratorical numbers,such as the prologue to " I Pagliacciand "Honour and Arms," Handel. Hisrepertoire of more popular songs includes :•' Onawav Awake," " The Blind Plough-man," "To Anthea," and "The CompanySergeant-major."

During the Covent Garden opera sea-son just closed 20 works were presented." Boheme "

was the most popular, with"Aida" and fTosca" second. Elevenof the operas were from Italian writers,seven were French compositions, and tht>remainder English. These were "Nail"and "Prince Igor." The number of per-formances totalled 83.

Mr. Peter Dawson is now in Adelaideresting his voice. He expects to makehis final world tour very shortly.

Mr: Brodie Mack, who has been themanager of the Auckland Opera House forsome months past, is to leave shortlyfor Melbourne to take up an appointment,as local manager for the Fuller firm.

CURRENT LITERATURE.NOTES ON NEW BOOKS.

by came.The move forward in religion is a dis-

tinct product of an age when the rest-lessness of Labour and the nervous strainof the community has reached a point atwhich it looks round, anxious for someeolution of present-day difficulties. Em-phasised by the tragedy of war, theproblem of being able to Jive peacefullyand in content has caused men andwomen of every class to search into primalcauses. Religion is apparently the onlymethod of cure which offers any stablehope, and to its ministrations many p-r6looking for relief from the present.troublous times.

THE PLAIN MAN'S RELIGION." The Church and the Plain Man"—

by David J. Davies (Angus, Robertson,Sydney; Sunday-school Union, Auckland).—Consisting of lectures delivered at St.Paul's Cathedral, Melbourne, the volumeforms an instructive guide-post as to theposition of religion in the mind of theordinary man. Archdeacon Davies has nothesitated to use direct language : hestresses the place which comfort occupiesin modern life, with its consc uent re-action upon church attendance. He seeksto estimate the actual resources of theChurch in order to find what it offers tothe public, and he hopes that by the s.i&of certain improvements to once morestrengthen the points of contact betweenman and divine worship and so hasten thework of world reconstruction.

Active and Passive Membership." The problem of passive church mem-

bership is as acute," writes Mr. Davies,"in wealthy suburbs as in slum area*,'but the contrast between active andpassive membership is most conspicuousamong the wage-earners, who form thebulk of the population and constitute thestrength of the Labour movement. TheChurch maintains its hold mainly amongthe social groups that enjoy moderate, ormerely 'comfortable, incomes.The world says that it is more blessed toget- than to give. That is what ie wrongwith the world. The Church is commis-sioned to teach that it is more blessed togive than to receive. But though peoplemay say unkind things about the clergyas a class, they respect them as indi-viduals, and clergymen can go freely wherethe police have to walk warily. There isno widespread organised quarrel with re-ligion, and even men who speak evil ofthe Church profess to reverence Christ andto admire His teaching. Even the warwas regarded as a struggle for the main-tenance of Christian as against worldlyideals. There are parents too careless ofreligion to send their children to Sunday-school. A lesser degree or indifference isshown by those who send their children,but never attend pubic worship them-selves."

Materialism," writes the author, " hashelped to reduce the plain man to a stateof mental and spiritual inertia. The lossof the personal touch has accordingly de-graded modern business to the level ofnaked money-grabbing. The one test ofsuccess in any effort is the money to begot out of it. The pursuit of gain istaken for granted as the chief justificationfor any business enterprise. .

.. j.he

necessity for earning forces a man out ofbed, not when he likes, but when he-must ;turns him into a money-making unit farthe greater part of the day, limits hieleisure, decides when and how he g'etßhis meals, what sort of home he may pro-vide for his family; how much of a familyhe may have, and how far he may educatethem, what time he' can devote to general'culture- or to the personal training of hissons and daughters, what opportunities hehas for indulging in personal tastes andinterests. Hence it comes to pass thatmaterialism tends to -usurp the spheres ofthose personal and spiritual interests thatgive richness rati meaning to life at itsbest. But materialism crushes out the fineelements of personality, not only by un-duly absorbing men's time and energy,but by unduly fostering lower impulsesand by giving currency to a lower scaleof values."

One might quote at great length fromthe direct and plain-spoken utterances ofthis modern cleric. His every word iscogent, his delivery forceful, his dictionsimple but emphatic. He speaks truths,which every modern citizen would probablybe the better for hearing. In the newwork of reconstruction his book shouldplay an important part. He suggests the.endowment of great theological scholar-ships as an outlet for men's wealth, whichmay conceivably be of great benefit tothe nation.

FICTION.A new edition of John Bnchan's novel,

" The Thirty-nine Steps" has been pub-lished by Hodder and Stoughton, London-It is of the "thrill" order of fiction, whichmeans with this author a singularly fascin-ating story. His opening chapter is abreathless one, in which Scndder fakes acorpse and disappears from his enemies(German spies) by apparently dying. Buthe is found, pinned to the floor by a knife,

I and Hannay; who has given him shelter,fearing suspicion of murder on himself,disguises himself, takes Scudder's blacknote-book, and flees to Scotland. Therehe masters the cipher in the note-book, and discovers Britain's peril. Butthis ie merely incidental compared withthe thrilling and amusing adventureswhich befall him in bis efforts to escapefrom his pursuers, the Germans. Once,when locked in a storeroom, he explodessome "lentonite," blows himself out ofthe house, and the house itself, to pieces.One may laugh at Buchan's audacity inthis order of fiction, but one reads thebook through, every word of it.

" The Last Million*'—by lan Hay(Hodder, Stonghton).The " last million'are the Americans, and their imnressionsof England are very faithfully described.There are, naturally, since lan Hay is thewriter, very humorous touches here andthere. The Americans go to France, andtheir field operations then come into thestory, which ends upon the triumphal noteof "L*armistice est signee."" Diana Falls in Love"—by J[aria

Albanese (Ward, Lock, Melbourne).—her own way, which is a very charmingone, this popular authoress tells the storyof Diana, who becomes secretary andgeneral help for Mrs. Lacey, a wealthywoman, who personally conducts a largebusiness concern. Diana is adaptable andbecomes Mrs. Lacey's right hand. CaptainLacey is a ne'er-do-well and causes sometrouble. The remainder of the charactersaxe cleverly sketched; but the incidentscentre round Diana, who inherits Mrs.Lacey's fortune, and who marries thatlady's stepson, an identity revealed at theend of the story.

* Ink stains on garments can be soakedout in a mixture of salt and milk. Ateaspodnful of salt to nearly a gill ofmilk is the right proportion. If the inkhas been allowed to dry it will be neces-sary to soak the stained part in the milkfor an hour or two.

If yon want to boil potatoes in a hurry,never add the salt until they are haltboiled., They take much longer to cookif the salt is added when they are firstput in.

When tea is spilt on a table cloth, coverthe stains with common salt. Leave fora little while, and when the cloth iswashed all the stains will have disap-peared.

PICTURESQUE TABLECLOTHS.

A most pleasing and economical tablecovering may be made from 1£ squareyards of butcher-blue French cotton ornurses' clotth, scalloped with white thread.

The effect of this blue cloth at break-fast and lunch time is very cheerful, andin the centre of it you can have a brasspot holding a plant of white margueritesor a bowl of painted and gilded poppy-headii. The cloth endures considerablelubbing before the colour fades, and, evenwhen it does, the effect is still delightful.

These cloths reduce laundry bills con-siderably — last clean longer thanwhite cloths, and need neither blueingnor starching ; also, indoor drying is nodisadvantage to them, whereas the colourof white cloths suffers considerably.

A little white embroidery done en to thecentre adds, of course, to the charm ofthe blue cloth, but ilt its undoubtedly athing of beauty, pf utility, and economyeven without it.

LONDON FASHIONS.Our London correspondent writes:

Many times in my notes I have laid stresson the growing popularity of « taffetas.This silk is now used for so many differ-ent purposes that one may call it übiqui-tous, for blouses, coatees, whole dresses,hats, and elaborate waistcoats, the latterto be worn under early autumn coats.

The "run " on taffetas has thrust satininto the background; nevertheless, blackin a heavy, dull make is in constant de-mand, and anyone who possesses a dressor tunic in this material need not fearthe taffetas craze, for fashions may comeand go, but satin we shall always havewith us. Still, it is a taffetas year!

The Medicis Collar.Many of the newest casaque or tunic

blouses have high collars in seini-Medicisform which make a frame for the headat the back and then open in a long'V." This collar is ever so becom-ing ; to be quite correct it must bemade of taffetas or stiff organdie muslinaccordian-pleated. Most of these collarshave invisible supports introduced in thefolds of the pleats indeed, they neverremain in perfect form unless this ideakg well carried out.

Gradually we are becoming accustomedto high collars, frilled or otherwise. Theyare still something of a novelty, and oneseems to see as many "low necks" asever, but, as is the case of the ultra-short sleeve, the tide of popular tasteis turning. I predict next winter weshall find high collars to dress oodicesand blouses quite an ordinary thing.

Of course, we have long known andappreciated the exaggeratedly-high collarof wraps and wrap-coats; that is anotheraffair. What I am now speaking of isthe simple high collar which resembles,that of a tulle guimpe, and which is care- ,fully shaped to the neck, especially thethroat. Women who possess unwelcomedouble chins are rejoicing in the newsthat high collars are coming into fashionagain, but on this subject I must throwout a hint.

There really is as much danger in a) high collar as in a low neck where ai double chin is concerned. Neither fitlymeets the occasion. Far better a lengthof tulle illusion in any desired colour,which can be lightly twisted round theneck and then tied in a bow under theleft ear.

The Chinese Coat.For indoor wear in the afternoon one

of the latest ideas is the straight, loosecoat cut in Chinese fashion, made oftaffetas and embroidered very finely incoloured silks, the design being as quaintand old-world as possible, little trails ofsmall roses, honeysuckle, or convolvulus,worked in natural colours, with the stemsoutlined with metallic threads and tinybeads introduced on the leaves.

These coats are very decorative, andcan be worn over a lace, satin, or pleatedvoile skirt. They are rather long, reach-ing to the knees, and the sleeves areloose, with kimono shoulders.

Collars Up Sleeves Down." Collars are going up and up! This is

certain. And sleeves are slowly—veryslowly, it must be —comingdown." Villiers sends us this startlingnews. "They are growing longer, inchby inch, apparently, very unwillingly.But the fact remains that both sleeves,and skirts are getting longer! Really onecannot wonder at the present craze forshort-sleeved frocks since they haveproved so extraordinarily attractive andbecoming. Artists assure us that the sunis the greatest of all beautifiers, and Ibegan to realise that there is truth in thesaying; the slightly sun-burnt arms ofto-day, so freely exhibited, are almostuniversally shapely and beautiful.

"The short-sleeved garden-party frockor tonic should provide itself with adoable cincture of two long ribbons incontrasting colours, rose and grey, ■blackand Madonna-blue, orchard and mauve,or lemon yellow and leaf green. Wornwith a particularly infantile frock of whiteorgandie—at a recent garden fete—-Iroticed and admired a sash of Madonna-blue ribbon and silver tissue whichboasted rather wide ends fringed in bineand silver. The hat was a simple blackchip lined with deep blue panne andtrimmed with sweet-pea blossoms."

THE BUSINESS GIRL.

"My dear, is this how you live?" The«vords were uttered in horrified tones bymy mother as she stood in the doorwayof my room and surveyed the chaoticscene. I had jusl commenced my businesscareer, and she had come to London tosee for herself how 1 was getting on. Thevisit was a surprise— U6 both.

I had engaged rooms with the under-standing that the rent would include ser-vice. It was the backsliding of the "ser-vice" which was responsible for the pre- jsent embarrassing situation. The "char" 'had not been in for nearly a week, and, asI had not the time to do the work myiielf,everything had been allowed to drift. Ihad taken rooms in preference to living ina boardinghouae in the hope that I shouldhave more opportunities to practiseeconomy. Dear mother helped to restoreorder, and incidentally gave me somehelpful hints, one being that I should giveup bachelor life until such time as I couldafford more reliable "help."

"Don't you think," she said, "it wouldbe rather a good idea to watch men;how they employ their leisure ? You couldsurely learn something from a study ofhow they live outside their business."

I did. I discovered that they do notmend their own clothes, or make their ownunderwear, after they get home at night.Neither do they spend their holidays mak-ing themselves a pair of new tennistrousers, or, if more ambitious, a suit ofclothes. I found that, if their socks andfjloves were not mended by an obligingandlady or kindly relative, they simplywent out and bought others.

I am not going to argue how it can bedone. The old axiom, " Where there's awill there's a way," holds just as goodto-day as ever it did, but until womencan learn to "let go" of the little thingsin life in corresponding ratio will theyretard business success.

The slavish devotion to the idea that" women are expected to do these things"—which mean anything from laundry workto mending and dressmaking— probablybeen the cause of the nervous break-downswhich are so prevalent among women. Awoman simply cannot work before she goesto her business all day and then go homeand work all the evening and then hopeto be as energetic and clear of brain asher male competitor. She needs rest,amusement, and the stimulus of intellec-tual contact just as much as does a man.Women will do well to observe men'smethods and profit thereby.

EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL WORK.

The debate arranged by the Conserva-tive Women's Reform Association on■' Equal Pay for Equal Work" resultedin an admirably clear statement of theproblem and a brief, but adequate, reviewof the economic and ethical considerationsthat govern its solution, says an exchange.Major Hills, who took the chair, pointedout that a fair wage might be regardedfrom two aspectsthat of its relation tothe needs of the worker and that of thevalue of his work to the employer. Exceptin the case of a minimum wage, the laststandard was the more convenient, andwas generally adopted, but those who"object to giving women the same wageas men for the same work justify them-selves by saying that a man's needs aregreater, and that men usually havefamilies to support. To deny

*

womenequality in wages was, he showed, to cutacross the trade union doctrine of the" rate for the job," which ignored thepersonality of the workers and their vary-ing degrees of skill. Even piecework isnot necessarily payment by results, for allpiece-workers .have a guaranteed mini-mum. During the war women workersobtained the same guaranteed minimumas men. In comparing the value of menand women on time rates it is necessaryto compare their productivity, speed, andefficiency over a considerable period. Thishad been possible during the war, and hasshown that in many occupations womenare not merely equal but superior to men.

Mrs. Barton, of the Women's IndustrialCouncil, speaking in favour of equal pay,said that the common practice of payingwomen about half men s rates for exert-ing the same effort for the same numberof hours tended to bring down men'srates of pay. The standard might bekept up by excluding women from anyparticular industry or by insisting uponequal pay. During the war exclusion hadproved impossible, and now it wouldhardly be sufficient to keep up men'sstandard owing to the competition be-tween different trades, which led to someapproximating of wages in them. Sheadvocated equal pay because it was reason-able and because inequality brought downthe standard of life of both sexes.

Miss Nora Milnes, of Edinburgh Univer-sity, speaking against equal pay, said thatit would do nothing to lessen the difficul-ties of self-supporting women. Thesearise chiefly because women are debarredfrom many occupations, and insistence onequal pay will stereotype this exclusion.Women are less valuable to employers be-cause they are likely to marry and giveup work. The lessened chance of mar-riage does not lessen this objection, be-cause it is impossible in selecting womenworkers for promotion to know which ofthem will marry.

Mrs. Corner, of the Fabian Society, de-sired that wages should be fixed accordingto the value of the work to the employer;its value to the State is the essentialfactor. The differentiation between men'swork and women's is often purely arti-ficial, as in the case of the Whitehall liftwomen, who were refused men's" rates be-cause they could not repair the lifts. Itcame out at an official inquiry that thelift men who were paid on the higherscale did not, in fact, repair lifts, werenot able to do so, and were bv circularforbidden to try. After Mrs. Drake haddiscussed some of the difficulties of apply-ing the principle of equal pay for equalwork, a show of hands was taken, andthe resolution, that this meeting is ofopinion that " equal pay for equal workis both reasonable and practicable," was

I carried by a considerable majority.

AIDS TO BEAUTY.

Sometimes drugs are recommended asaids to beauty, but unless they are pre-scribed by a doctor it is best to leavethem severely alone. There are manysimple and harmless preparations thatmay effectively replace the use of bella-donna for the eves or arsenic for the com-plexion. For example, if the eves arebathed in boracic lotion they will" be re-freshed and look much brighter.

The make the lotion one ounce ofboracic acid in powder must be dissolvedin 14 pints of hot water. It is best tomake this lotion in a bottle, so that itcan be well shaken. It must not be useduntil the powder is dissolved.

Many girls who have had complexionswould in numerous cases have saved theirlooks had they taken better care of theirdigestions, as a weak digestion is moreoften than not the cause of a sallow com-plexion. There is, however, an old-worldremedy any modern girl can use, and it isjust as effective now as it was in the daysof "powder and patches."

All that is required is a bunch of water-cress. This must be well washed, anyfaded parts removed, and a good dealof the stem cut away. Tt must be placedin a china basin and boiling water pouredover it. The basin must then be coveredwith a plate and let stand for half anhour, after which the mixture must bestrained through muslin. Half a pintof boiling water is required for about 12piece:, of water-cress. One or two table-spoonfuls should he taken twice a day.This infusion should only be used whenquite freshly made ; it should not be keptfor more than two days, and . then onlyin a cool, dark spot. After it has beentaken regularly for a week it should hediscontinued for about ten days, and then,if necessary, taken for another week.

A MODERN BEDROOM.Yellow is not by any means everyone's

colour, and a certain amount of courageand a perfect complexion are necessary be-fore you can calmly face the idea of wakingup in an all-yellow bedroom. On the otherhand, yellow is the colour of Che sunshine,and the sight of the gay little yellow suitewhich I have just seen would be a verycheering one on which to open your eyes.Especially if you lay on a blue lacquer bedand reflected on the extreme becomingnessof narrow black lines to yellow furniture,with a reference to the almost flatteringeffect to your own face of a black slipinside the mirror frame.

Then if youi, greatly daring, were a littlebit out of date, and had black walls, soshiny as to recall the best Brunswick black,you would see what delightful golden re-flection they would give, and how quaintand charming little bright colour-prints inround and oval frames would look on them.Carpets being dreadfully out of place ina " modern bedroom," you would dispensewith them and have your floor painted adeep rich blue, while bright tan mats withline borders in different colours would pro-tect it from scratches in the most exposedplaces and provide a little agreeablewarmth for your feet, as you stepped outof bed. Your boote and shoes, those un-sightly dust-traps, would be tucked awayinside the cupboard door, where two nar-row shelves about 2in wide, with elasticabout 6in above them, would be ingeni-ously arranged for their reception.

Glazed chintz curtains in a new-old-fashioned pattern of flowers and birds,which are also dust-resisting: would make

|an attractive break in a rather severescheme; and on the dressing-chest, "whichwould be furnished with a most charmingcallection of blue glass in a truly" heavenly" shade, there would be apapier-mache box with lone-tailed bird andexotic flowers to hold the brushes andcombs. Altogether this bedroom would liveup to its description of " modern" in avery thorough way, not only or even chieflyin its decoration, but by its carefully-thought-out plans for . labour-saving, sothat it would be possible for its occupantto do all the work herself without outsidehelp.

EDUCATION OF THE FIANCEE.

There .was once a girl who went as pro-bationer to a hospital. Arriving cappedand cuffed in the ward, she was sent tohelp in making a patient's bed, but dis-dainfully refused to do "servant's work."Nursing, as she understood it, meantsitting by a patient, reading to him andgiving him meals and medicine. Thesense that some not less rude shocksagainst reality await the English fiancee,especially if her goal is an outlying Cana-dian farm, has evoked from the EducationAuthority of London the handsome gift ofabsolutely free training in domesticecondmy for wife, fiancee, or even a youngwoman who has a sincere intention ofgiving her life's work to the Dominion.The offer arose out of a suggestion madeby some of the men students of the KhakiUniversity at Montreal. Seeing whatknowledge meant to them they asked iftheir womenfolk might not have somesimilar opportunity, and soon a com-

Eetent Canadian teacher, Mrs. Cunning-am, was despatched to England.

Correspondence Lessons.In a couple of months eighty students

have been enrolled, and some beyond theLondon area are being started at least bycorrespondence lessons and-directed study,especially of garden, dairy, poultry, andbee work. It is hoped that centres willbe formed as students come forward.Meantime in London the London CountyCounci evening institutes receive anynumber into their existing classes. Thosepeople who still think State educationmeans learning to play the piano and tobecome unfitted for the rougher work oflife might with advantage see a class ofwomen and girls solidly soling boots.Boot repairs, however, are alike all theworld over. It is otherwise with cookeryand laundry, the first subjects specialisedfor Canada.." When We Make Soap. . .

."

A lesson may proceed thus: " When wemake our soap. . . ." The student, indismay: "Don't we buy it?" Theteacher explains possible 'distances. "Andeven then, thjnk how much fat yon wouldwaste when, in turn with neighbours, you jkilled an animal." The student's eyesgrow round with horror, but the situationis relieved when soap-making is put on ahigher plane.

The University Department of Chemis-try will test for proper constituents andproportions. And an organised visit tomeat market and butcher's shop revealsinteresting organisation in the planningout of joints and use of varied materials.

An early revelation in cookery is thatoverseas recipes are not at once to beunderstood even by the English-initiated." Take a cupful "—but our cups are ofvastly varied size, and counsel is furtherdarkened by the addition of tablespoonfulsand fractions of the same. Even when adecision is made and a spoon chosen, isit to be level or heaped? Explanation fol-lows to the effect that in Canada cups arenot merely standardised but also groovedinside for fractions, and a tablespoon isa tablespoon, is always used " level," andany flour or meal contents can be neatlymarked with a knife to half or a fraction.

Home Organisation.The laundry and the kitchen lead the

student naturally to home organisation.Sewing develops into the construction ofinner and outer clothing and the textilefurnishing of the house. First aid andinfant care have constant reference toDominion conditions. The university'scommercial department has added typingand book-keeping lessons, and classes arebeing formed for the study of French andSpanish. Advice and information may behad from Mr. Cunningham, head of thedomestic economy section of Khaki Uni-versity at 49, Bedford Square, W.C. 1.All this is absolutely free to students, butthere is a bill to pay and the British taxand ratepayer is paying it in the hopethat ten yearsor two years—hence itwill not have become a common proverbin Canada (or elsewhere overseas), "She'sas feckless as an English girl J"

PRESENT-DAY SLANG.

How different is modern conversationfrom that of the last century, exclaimsRuby, an English writer. It is almost adifferent language. Books like "Cranford,"which mirror the charming simple lan-guage of Early Victorian ladies, will al-ways be delightful reading even after

; modern books which picture the present1 day "slangy" girl have ceased to attract.j Open "Cranford" as you will, on almostI every page you find most refreshing con-j versation., "\\ hat a superior man vour cousin must] be!

"Yes." saTd Miss Pole; "he's a greatI reader, but I am afraid he has got intoI very uncouth habits with living alone."I "Oh ! Uncouth is too hard a word. I

: should call him eccentric; very cleverI people always are," replied Miss Matty.translated into modern language thisI passage would read :" Your cousin must be a real knockout "

j ' les. He swots a lot. But he's get-! ting a quaint sort of customer through al-ways digging alone."

" I say, that's a bit rough on the poorchap. Perhaps he's only just a little bitoff the top.'Possibly this style of talk will soon beconsidered "bad form," and conversationI will again be regarded as an art worthy ofI cultivation and calling for refined languageonly. E °

ITEMS OF SOCIAL NEWS.Mrs. Burns, who died suddenly at her

residence in Brook Street, was a sister of .the late Mr. Pierpaot Morgan, and widowof his partner and London representative,Mr. W. H. Burns, who acquired the Hat-field estate of North Mymms Park. Herdaughter in 1899 married Mr. "Lulu"Harcourt, now Viscount Harcourt. Mrs.Burns was a woman of much character,and filled a notable place in society. Shewas a keen collector of pictures and oldchina.

Mrs. Bertram Brooke is the wife ofH.H. the Tuan Muda of '" Sarawak, theelder of the brothers of Charles Vyner jBrooke, H.H. the Rajah of Sarawak. Sheis the only daughter of the late Sir Walter IPalmer, first baronet. Her eldest daugh.ter, Jean, is a good musician. When theRajah and Ranee of Sarawak succeeded,and his Highness was proclaimed Rajahin his capital, Captain Bertram Brooke,Tuan Muda of Sarawak (the heir-presump-tive) carried the sword of honour at thepicturesque ceremony, which took place inAugust, 1918.

Baroness Clifton, who makes her debutthis season, is one of the few peeressesholding rank in their own right. She isthe daughter of the seventh Earl of Darn-ley, who died in 1900. Her mother is nowLady Leverson, wife of Rear-AdmiralArthur Cavanagh Leverson, C.B. BaronessClifton was born in 1900, and is one of themost important Peace debutantes. Sheshould not be confused with Lady Cliftonof Rathmore, the wife of Lord Clifton, theeldest son of the present Earl of Darnley.Lord Clifton is her first cousin.

Lord Dunraven traces his descent fromthe ancient kings of Munster. He has,however, assimilated the modern demo-cratic notion that even the descendants ofkings must work if they are to justifytheir existence. In his case, besides mili-tary servicehe was in the Guards, andserved with the Imperial Yeomanry inSouth Africa— has been a member ofthe London as well as of Irish CountyCouncils. In addition, he is that ratherrare thing, an Irish landowner who ispopular with his tenants.

Lady Glanely. whose husband is thelucky owner of "Grand Parade," is aWelshwoman, and before her marriage toLord Glanely—then Mr. William JamesTatemwas Miss Ada Mary Williams.Lord Glanely received his peerage in 1918,being then a baronet. He is a great powerin the shipping world, and is interesteedin philanthropy and education, as well asin sport. It is interesting to note thatthe coat-of-arms of the family is evolvedon sea lines, being supported by a coupleof sea-horses, sable, bezantee, gorged witha mercantile crown, and that the Glanelycrest is an arm, holding a telescopevery apt additional detail.

Lady Juliet Duff's recent marriage toMajor Keith Trevor, M.C., came as asurprise. Lady Juliet is the onlv daugh-ter of the late Earl of Lonsdale, andwidow of Sir Robin Duff, Bt., who waskilled in action in 1914. She has twochildren—Sir Charles Duff, Bt., and Vic-toria Maude Duff, aged 12 and 15 respec-tively. Major Trevor is in the MiddlesexRegiment, and was badly wounded in1915, after which he became an A.P.M.in town. He is the son of Major HarryDupuis Trevor, the well-known journalist,and is younger than his bride. The mar-riage, which took place at Otham ParishChurch, was a quiet ceremony.

Commander the Hon. Erskine Nicolson, iR.N., who is engaged to be married toMiss Katharine Lopes, is the second ofthe three sons of Lord and Lady Carnock.He served during the late wax, and hasthe Legion of Honour, the Russian Orderof St. Anne, and was promoted. Hisyounger brother married the only daugh-ter of Lord and Lady Sackville. The eldestson. Major the Hon. Frederick Nicholson,who won his M.C. in the war, is unmar-ried. The only daughter of the house isthe wife of the heir-presumptive to theBarony of St. Levan, and Miss KatharineLopes is a niece of Lady St. Levan. Sheis the eldest daughter of Sir Henry andLady Albertha Lopes. Lady Albertha is asister of the Earl of Mount Edgcumbe, ofLady Algernon Percy, and of Lady St. jLevan. Lord Carnock is, it will be re-'membered, a very distinguished diploma-tist, and Lady Carnock is a sister ofHariot Marchioness of Duffer in and Ava.

Miss Eileen. Meakm, who is shortly tobe married to Sir Charles Cayzer, is theelder of the two daughters of CountessSondes by her first marriage with the lateMr. James Meakin, of Westwood Manor,Staffordshire. Miss Meakin has been go-ing out with her mother through the sea-son. Sir Charles Cayzer is in the 19thHussars, and is the third baronet and anonly son. He is a nephew of ViscountessJellicoe and of Lady Madden, and is headof a very wealthy family, hailing origin-ally from Cornwall. In the far NorthHighlands the name gave rise to what wasa great joke for Lady Jellicoe. Some High-landers said that it was a bad thing forthe admiral that his wife should be a con-nection of the Kaiser! That personagehad real reason to regret his connectionwith the husband of a Cayzer.

How many people who read the newsthat Lady Orkney was helping to organisethe ball for the Women's Legion, given inLondon recently, connected her ladyshipwith the Miss Connie Gilchrist who wonname and fame-as a dancer and skipping-rope performer in the old Gaiety Theatredays? Not many, for the public "has a no-toriously short memory, and Lady Orkneymarried in 1892 lifetime as time goesthese days. Since her marriage, she hasdevoted herself more or less to countrypursuits, followed, not, as her name sug-gests, in the wilds of Scotland! but in themuch more peaceful surroundings of Buck-inghamshire, where the greater part of herhusband's property lies. It is, too, of in-terest to recall that Lady Orkney was theoriginal of Whistler's '"'Golden Girl"--'pictureproduced at a famous " war" mat Inee. Her ladyship did not herself pose asthe original, but superintended every de-tail of the production of what was unani-mously said to be the best tableau of aseries each of which was rather more per-fect in detail than is customary on such

Work of the W.A.A.C.'s and theW.R.A.F.'s is to be immortalised on can-vas by Sir John Lavery, A.R.A., who hasbeen commissioned bv the Government topaint some pictures of the activities of theWomen's Armies. The work of the -womenin the past four years was one of the great ' ;romances of the war. Sir John's 63 yearsof life is a great romance in itself. Losingboth parents in infancy, Sir John, theBon of a Belfast wine merchant who failedin business, and was drowned whilst on :the way to America to found a new home, 'the mother surviving the tragedy but threemonths, was taken care of by his uncle,and from the age of three to ten spenthis time on a farm at Moira, Co. Down.Then he went to school at Saltcoats, Ayr- ishire, but not liking the prospect of be- I 'coming a priest (his uncle's intention) he jran away from school and got a job in an ioffice in Glasgow. But commerce did nut :'suit him, the army would not have him ;when he tried to enlist, and he spent a l'further two years un his uncle's farm. |Then be became a retoucher for a Glasgow ;photographer at £2O per annum, and ieventually, before he war. 21, launched his' 'frail boat on the seas of art. 11

Great interest has been roused in art ,circles in Auckland by a new kind of .needlework which is being introduced by •Miss Gardner. This embroidery is ,worked in delicate floral designs which areabsolutely original and apnlied directly ,to the material without the aid of pencilor transfer. The effects obtained are ex- <quisitr and unique, the artistic blending iof colours being a special feature of thework. ,

MEDICAL NOTES.

HAY FEVER.This distressing complaint is sometimes

known as summer catarrh. It attacks cer-tain individuals every year at the timewhan grasses and other plants are flower-ing. The symptoms are very like thoseof a cold in the head. The patient sneezes,the eyes run, and there is a general feel-ing of stuffiness and discomfort. Theattack may be confined to the nasal pas-sages or may manifest itself in the throator chest. There can be little doubt thatit is due to the presence in the air ofpollen grains, and, when these came intocontact with the sensitive mucous mem-

brane of the nose or bronchial tubes of[ persons who are particularly susceptibleto this form of irritation, the symptoms ofhay fever are set up. It is obvious thatthe most rational form of treatment is toavoid, if possible, the presence of thesepollen grains, which means non-residencelin the country* during haytime. Litt.e |I else is of mudi avail. If during the

I attack the breathing is badly restrictedcertain soothing solutions may be appliedunder medical advice and prescription.

A HOME-MADE FILTER.Water may contain organic or inorganic

impurities for drinking purposes; bothmust, as far as possible, be got rid of. •All water should* be boiled. When it jcomes to the boil it is not then ready ; it ishould boil for two or three minutes. This jmakes it taste rather flat, but it is best. :

Filtering is simple, and can be just as ,effective in a home-made filter. _ All that jis needed is charcoal (it can be in powder ,form) and a sponge or a piece of very finemuslin. The most useful receptacle is aflower pot, just an ordinary red one, butit should if possible be new. A handfulof fine gravel is also wanted ; this must bethoroughly washed and carefully pickedover to see it is all pure stone—sometimesbroken shells are mixed with gravel; ifany are found they must be removed. Thesponge {or muslin) must be well washed.The hole at the bottom of the pot shouldbe filled with either the sponge or themuslin, folded many times, and placedacrosF the hole with plenty left inside toprevent it slipping through. A layer ofpowdered charcoal quite two inches thick,is put at the bottom of the flower pot. Ontop of this the gravel is placed ; this must ;be in a laver from one inch to one and a

half. The water can drop into a wide-mouthed jug or a hole large enough toreceive the lower part of the pot can be

cut in a thin piece of wood which is

■ placed over a basin. The filter must be■ thoroughly cleaned every two or three■ days.

THE NAILS.The nails are bodily structures compar-

able with the hair and the teeth, and just' as the general health and the general' nutrition affect the latter, so also they

affect the nails. The nails are firmly' attached to, and in direct physiological

connection with, the sensitive skin layerswhich lie below them. From these soft

' structures they derive their nourishment.Normally the growth of the nails fromtfteir roots is steady and uniform, but as

, a result of accident or illness the process, of cell formation may be interrupted and

a permanent mark or groove may manifest. itself in the surface of the nail. Normally

the nails grow in a ridged or furrowedi manner, and these ridges often becomeI much more pronounced as the result ofI advancing age. The matrix, or bed of

the nail, again, is subject to all sorts ofmorbid changes, one of the commonestof which is in the form of excessive growthwhich raises the nail plate much abovenormal. In some people the nails arevery brittle, in others thin and soft, andnearly all constitutional diseases producemore or less eueci. on tnem. « is veryimportant that no pressure should beapplied to the termination of the nails,as this tends to lead to the painful con-dition known as ingrowing nails, the com-monest cause of which is short or narrow-toed boots. The nails should receive areasonable amount of attention, and shouldbe kent cut sufficiently short. On theother hand, they should not be cut soshort as to lead to tenderness of the tipsof the toes or fingers. The finger nailsshould be cut round and the toe nailsshould be cut square. The scarf skinat the base of the nails should be pressedback gently every two days, after washingthe hands and feet. For this purpose alittle bone or ivory instrument is prefer-able to one of metal. Apart from thissimple care, little is really needed beyondsoa 1"). water, and a nail brush. Elaboratemanicuring is only possible for the com-paratively idle. As with most otherelements of beauty, one of the most im-portant factors is the maintenance of agood general state of health and the lead-ing of a healthy, active outdoor life.

\

PREDISPOSITION TO DISEASE.We often hear the phrase, " So-and-so

is very subject to" this or that disease. Itmay be " bilious attacks," to colds on thechest, headaches, or any of a dozen similartroubles. There are people who seem totake a pride in such susceptibility. It isa common kink in human nature which re-gards disease so tolerantly, even goingso far as to make a sort of miserable capi-tal out of it, as though ill-health weremore interesting than health. To dwellconstantly, as such people do, upon thesubject of disease, to anticipate ill-health,to gloat over symptoms and to keep themconstantly and indulgently in mind, is togo a long way towards providing, if nota weakness, at least the sort of tolerantatmosphere in which disease may flourish.

111-health a Grime.

It has been suggestedand the sugges-tion is by no means as absurd as it mayseemthat if only we could be brought toregard ill-health as a crime, as definitelydisgraceful as, say, theft or personal vio-lence, we should be well on the way toa practical improvement in the generalstandard of well-being. In spite of longexperience, says a doctor, I am still oftensurprised by the complacency some of mypatients display towards symptoms andcomplaints that are purely the result ofthe mental attitude I have mentioned. Inbusiness affairs, or in any of their prac-tical dealings with life, such persons wouldbe the last to display such real weaknessof character as shows itself in their atti-tude towards real or imagined ailments.For such cases, the first, and very oftenthe only, kind of treatment that is neededis to change their point of view, to dis-tract their minds from the symptoms andto make them cure themselves. All the .drugs in the world will not alter inveter-ate habits of mind, and it is very oftenin these that a great deal of the troublelies.

The Mental Attitude.When all is said and done, the mental

attitude of a man towards his circum-stances is infinitely more important in thelong run than the circumstance* them-,selves. We are by nature so adaptablethat, if only we are able to keep our in-terests and our spirits cheerful, we cannot only master but even find stimulus incircumstances that on the face of it seemwell night intolerable. Very often, in-deed, such conditions provide their ownantidote. Rather let us consider theperson who is. as we say, " bored withlife." His actual circumstances may becomfortable and devoid of material cares.He may live in healthy surroundings p.n'dnever be forced to make an uncongenialeffort. Yet, for some reason or other, henever fee's up to the mark and alwavshas his health in mind, and attributes thedullness of his interest in life to somefancied susceptibility to disease. Suchpersons. valetudinarians as they arccalled, are by no means rare. They nevergo out without goloshes, never eat this orthat for fear of evil consequences to theirdigestions, cannot sleep unless every de-tail of their bedrooms is just so, and areoften morbidly worried about their souls.Can we wonder that nature takes her re-venge upon this flouting of her c'aims bvallowing such persons to become, eventu-ally. the victims of their own morbidobsessions. It is one of our sunreme privileges that we have a very fa; chance ofdoing and being what we most desire, andunless we concentrate upon the best, there- *

fore, we cannot complain if life seems touse us badly. i

'% v . WHEEL-BASE.It ia probable that many cars ■will have

■ ft longer, wheel baas by several inches thanadopted in pre-war .models. This increaseh found advantageous in allowing forroomier coachwork; and the 'fitting oflonger and easier riding springs. Frames"will be lighter and stronger, thanks to theuse of improved»alloy -steels which havebeen recently developed.

HARK IK QUICK STARTING.

Do not think that you demonstrate skillor driving ability by making a quickgetaway. You will have visible evidenceof the inadvisability of this when you seeyour tyre bills but there is greater harmdone, which you are not apt to see, in therear end and transmission of your 'cars.Nine out of ten stripped pinions and rearaxle keys can be attributed to this foolishpractice.

HUGE MOTOR REPAIR PLANT.Shelters for 11,000 motor vehicles have

been built at, Slough, where thousands ofmachines have beon standing out, exposedto the elements, since the signing of thearmistice. Factories are erected for therebuilding of these cars for sale. Continu-ous employment is to be given to 2000men. An erecting shop covering eightacres is one of the structures. The plantwill not only put surplus motor equipmentin shape for sale, but will keep in repairarmy air force, and other public servicemachines.

SURPLUS GOVERNMENT MOTORS

So brisk was the bidding that Mr. God-dard, of Messrs. Goddard and Smith, whoconducted the sales of surplus motorvehicles at the Agricultural Hall, Isling-ton, for the Disposal Boaijd of the Minis-try of Munitions, found buyers fo? threeTehielos in two minutes on a recent occa-sion. The vehicles were two Daimler cars,

Y- rhich realised ;31C5fns and 420gns, and a15cwt" tender, "which'' brought in 195gns.To date 20 sales have been held in the

\ hilL They have boon attended by 25,000\ people, and have realised in tho aggre-, gate over £440.000. The auctioneers also

oSered about 200 pedal bicycles, in vari-ous stages of repair.

FOILING THS CAS TIMES.A British patent thiisf-proof lock, which,

days the Autocar, can bo adapted prac-tically to any standard form, of gear andbrake control employed on a car, consistsof two pieces- of hard steel strip withloops at either end, arranged to fit overth« gear and brake levers. At one end oftho device ie a binge and at the other a

, iug;, through which passes the stirrup of astout padlock. In order; to.brine the de-

>-Bice into we at any time, it is only neces-sary to bingo the two arms of the attach-mont over the hand and brake levers andlock it in position by the padlock. Thomeasurement between the two loops kcucii. that the gear lever will be in gearand the hand brake hard on, and while thedevice 13 in operation the angle betweenthe two levers prevents either from beingmoved, yrlnfil? it is impossible for.ianauSio:.rised perso&to pnll the device verticallynpwandte for./'removal, owing to the, leversnot being parallel to one another.

AOOUMULATOB CHARGING.A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

In otosti eircmnstances of -life, and inmotoring •it «ofCen is disastrous, even ifused enterprisingly. Thus, says the Field,we have heard of clever people who pro-fess to be able to "ginger up" their ex-

/ hausted self-starter latteries by a simpleapplication:';©! a resistance ; coil to thehousehold electrical supply, and wo havewondered now they did it. Most self-"starters on American cars ruia on six-voltbatteries, and. on British, cars on 12. Theordinary house electric supply in thiscountry runs, at or around 220 volts, so,that in order, to recharge an Americanbattery it, would be necessary ;to introducea resistance which would absorb 2x4 volts,and to recharge a British system to absorb208. To do' this without overstrainingfuses would he actually impossible, bo thateven were it> as; practicable as it wouldbe costly..'.to! iprovide tho resistance, thenet result, as. we have, said, would bedisaster.>A We would • advise our readersto avoid% any! Jill-digested experiments, ofthis character, however apparently press-ing the necessity, if' a bill of costs fromthe electrical .supply .company be no*desired. "'-;,'•• ■

A CHECK OF WORKING TIKE.An extremely novel and simple device

for automatically recording the movementsof a motor vehicle hae.beeia Tpatented atStockport, England, and arr,cagemente arebeing made for placing it on the market.tDie Drakeeon recorder, to give it its pro-,p€? name, is entirely s«lf-con lained. It is«nclosedvin'a'strong steel bos, which canIra padlocked to any part of the chassis.A suitable position would on a met_lbracket on the dash. The Motor Tractionrtates that whether the vehicle is movingor stationary a dial is rotated continuouslyby a clockwork mechanism,' and, directlythe vehicle moves, the vibration of theroad wheels causes the pendulum to rock,with the result that a" pencil is oscillatedand makes a mark on .the dial. The com.bined movement of the dial and pencilcauses a black fine, in the form of an arc,to be made on the former, and this actioncontinues as long as the vehicle is actuallymoving along on the road. Directly thecar stops the pendulum ceases oscillating,and, consequently, the pencil becomesstationary, so that no mark is made onthe dial. In this way the recorder notonly provides at a glance the time spentin miming, but also the length of timespent stationary at any time of the day.

GREAT ACTIVITY IN AMERICA.In the United States motor vahicles

have come into such general use thatthere is one for every 18 persons in thecountry. At the beginning of this yearthe cars and commercial trucks numbered5,945,442, and had increased by 20 percent, since 1917. The New York show,which was held last February, was a suc-cess from the Belling point of view, butwas notably lacking in novelty. Makerswere engaged in meeting the demand byturning out models which had provedtheir usefulness, and the medium-poweredsix-cylinder engine was the dominanttype of motor for passenger cars. Designhad for the moment stagnated, but itis expected that there will be a generalredesigning in the near future. .Priceshave advanced, and the upward movementis expected to continue. The highly-priced car of established marque is invery good demand in America, where menof wealth keep five or six cars, suited tovariodK seasons and various employments.The cheap and moderate-priced car is atpresent in string demand in almost allparts of the world. Up to the year 1917ihi! export trade in American cars andcommercial vehicles was greatly stimu-lated by the war, in spite of restrictionsand difficulties of shipment. Europeancountries had been practically eliminatedas competitors, and the United Statesmanufacturers entered fields that werealmost new to them. The great advancewas i;i commercial vehicles, of which in1915 nioio were exported than passengermathintji. The figures are eloquent. Intho last complete year before the war thecommercial cars exported were valued at13 million dollars. In the calendaryear 1916 their value was nearly53 million dollars. During thesame interval the value of exports of pas-sengpr cars had advanced from 24 to 43millions. A decline followed the entryof America into the war as a belligerentbut the exports both of passenger andcommercial vehicles still continued to belarge. About 60 per cent, of the com-mercial machines exported in 1918 wentto Kurope for war purposes, while of thepassenger machines exported in that yearonly abotft 5 per cent, went to Kurope

HIGH-SPEED WINDMILL.' A high-speed windmill designed inAmerica, with, several small wheels on oneshaft, is claimed to be smoother-running,safer, and more constant than the singlelarge wheel. A six-wheel machine, aboutsft in diameter, with a sail area of 100square feet, is recommended.' With a six-pole dynamo it yields useful work of fiveto 20 hectowatts in a wind of 15 to 30 feetper second.

THE "K" BOATS.The British submarines of the "K"

class are the fastest ana most powerfulsubmersible craft in the world." They areeasily identified by the high and strangely-curved forecastle and overhanging bows.Built to go to sea with the Grand Flea,t,they are propelled on the surface by steamturbines at a speed of 24 knots, which isabout sight knots faster than the speedof ordinary submarines. They are 340ftlong, and displace 2570 tons. These boatshave unusually long periscopes, measuring30ft from top to bottom. Their funnelsare made to hinge back before the boatdives.

RUST-PROOFING BATH.i A chemical bath for rust-proofing iron

1 and steel parts of all sorts against atmos-pheric attack has been developed by anAmerican firm. Many automobile concernsare said to be using the process; it givesthe metal a dull, etched appearance, anddoes not prevent its use in the ordinaryway, it is said. Springs, for example, canbe made to function as usual withoutaffecting their rustproof qualities. Thearticles to be after being cleaned,are immersed in a boiling bath containingphosphate salts, and are kept there forabout two hours. After the chemicaltreatment has been completed the partsare removed, dried, and dipped in oil.They then can be painted or enamelled.

WHO RANG THE BELL? /

"When anyone rings the front-door bellat the ■ flat of Mr. William HamiltonWilsdn, a manufacturer of electrical appa-ratus at Kingston HOI, Surrey, the maidlooks at an electrical dial. She can tellwhether it is a visitor or a small boy play-ing a joke and running away. Behindthe door is a

_

small instrument extra-ordinarily sensitive to heat, so sensitivethat the warmth of a person's body stand- |ing four yards away, is enough to stir itinto • electrical activity to record "hispresence. The inventor hopes to developthe idea to the extent of being able tolight motor-car lamps from the heat ofthe engine or drive machinery from theheat of the sun.

DESCENT PROM AIRSHIPS.Among the suggestions made in Eng-

land for a means of enabling passengersto land from an airshipvat prescribedstopping-places is one in which the-dirigible is first moored by means of four )cables, which are thrown from the aerialflier. The passengers then will be ableto ascend or descend from the airship bymeans of light elevators operated betweenthe dirigible and earth. These elevators,electrically operated, need not be veryheavy, and can--be constructed of alu-minium, duralumin, or some such material.The power to operate these elevators canbe taken from the engines of the dirig-ible itself, and it will be quite an easymatter to take from fifteen toJwenty pas-sengers on a single trip.

THE FLYABOUT.> A small aeroplane has been turned outby the Gr&hame-White Co., of the Lon-don Aerodrome, Hendon, which is theflying equivalent of the light oar. It isintended to appeal to the sporting private

i owner, and is reported by an experienced» pilot who handled the machine in a trial. flight to be very easy to manage. It is ai single-seater, fitted with an 80-h.p. Lei Rhone engine. The wing span is only, 20ft, and the length from nose to tail is

about 18ft. In a trial flight recently ati Hendon it attained a speed of over 100

, miles an hour. It climbs very quickly,i and lands easily, -and is stated to run

; for an hour on 8 gallons of petrol. It is\ not possible yet to state the price of this

I A WORKMAN'S DINNER.' Starting with a standard workman's' dinner-pail as a basis, an American in--1 venter has merely altered the design of

' the usual lid so that it includes a burnerarrangement, while the side of the pailhas a holder for a bottle of alcohol. Tooperate this pail the cup is removed fromthe lid, and the lid is removed from the

, pail and inverted. One tablespoonful of, denatured alcohol is poured into the

• holder, ignited, and placed under the, dinnerpail. A groove in the bottom of

the pail engages with the edge of theI perforated wall of the lid, eo-that the. improvised stove forms a fairlv rigid

. unit. In five minutes a pint and a-halfof liquid wttl be heated to the proper

I degree. The bottle contains a week's, supply of alcohol. This fuel, of course,, burns without smoke or soot; and the1 flame, being confined within the perfor-

. ated enclosure, cannot be blown out by[ moderate winds.

A TON OF ORE A MINUTE.Automatic shovelling of ore at an aver-

age rate of a ton per minute is the ac-| complishment of a machine in use inI America. It not only forces its hugeclaws into the material it is desired toshift, but raises it, and by means of itsconveyor automatically transports it tothe rear, where it can be dumped intothe waiting car. The machine is so de-signed that it can be operated by elec-.tricity, compressed air, or gasoline power.Furthermore, only one man is requiredto work it. Briefly, the new undergroundmonster consists of a massive main frame,upon which the motor and rear conveyorare mounted. Pivoted to this frame is <»

projecting arm or " jib," which carriesthe front conveyor and the shove! proper.The jib may be swung to either side, soas to reach material 10ft from the centreof the track. The shovel operates con-tinuously at a speed of 12 revolutions perminute, and is entirely automatic in itsaction. In the construction of the Catskillaqueduct tunnel, for supplying water toNew York City, it did valuable work,while in a large copper mine it removedon an average a ton per minute duringthe day shift, and nearly as much duringa short night shift. Its output for 22days was 6626 tons.

SHIPS' LOOS.The standard method by means of

which the speed of naval vessels ie deter-mined is to observe the time taken topass over a measured distance, runs beingmade in opposite directions to eliminateerrors due to currents along the course,though cross currents will still cause adistance greater than the measured one tobe traversed. These experiments are car-ried out at various speeds, observationsbeing also made of the rotational speedof the propeller, ' a quantity which isused to indicate the ship's epeed when onactual service. An alternative plan todetermining transnational speed from thespeed of revolution of the proneller isto use a special instrument, known as a" log" for the purpose. The name arosefrom the very old plan of throwing over-board a piece of wood attached to a cordin which knots were t'ed at stated dis-tances. When it was desired to determinethe ship's speed this cord was 'allowed torun out freely, the speed being calculatedfrom the number of knots which ran outin unit't'me. The term "knot" as thenaval unit of speed arose in this way. butit if interesting to note that though inusing this form of log the observationsof speed were of the nnture "number ofknots per unit time" the term knot isnow used as the unit of speed and knotsper unit time is an acceleration. Parti-cular emphasis is laid upon this term,I ap it is common to find speed erroneously

j given in knots per hour.

SHORT STORIES.

%l OTHEB USES. "./:/'v--t "Mister," said the small box, "I wanta, bot*ia of them pills you sold my latherthe day before yesterday I" . £

"Certainly, ray 'little man," the gratifiedchemist replied. "I am glad to think theyaro doing youir toner so much, good thathe wants gome more."

"Beano if they're fioing father anygood," replied the youngster, "but they'redoing me a bit of good. They just fit myno-ti' airgnn.'"

TOO DEEP TOE HIM.An ambitious young author sent a

humorous paragraph to the jjditor of a.•aoekly paper. Time passed and he heardnothing, nor was it printed. So he wroteto Liquire about it.

"I sent you a jok«j about three weeksago. I have heard nothing respecting itssafe receipt, and should bj( glad to hearwhether you have seen it?"

The editor's reply was as follows:"Your joke arrived safely, but up to the

present wo hare not seen it?"

CUMULATIVE.\ story about a citizen whoso daughter

is a 1 mt to he married, and -who has beenIrving to get a line on what the expenseof the rather elaborate ceremony will be.H.> approached a friend of his, seek'ng in-

"Morris," he saic, "your oldest daugh-ter Via 'married "bout five years ago,wasn't she? Would von mind telling me

About how much the. wedding cost you? '" Not at all, Sam," was the answer.

'■ Altogether, about five thousand dollarsa yer.r."

SEE FELL OUT.

The wife of a profiteer was taking afrond fur a ride in the irreat new motor."Don't speak to the 'shoffer,' whateveryou do," she said, "it might distract bisattention."

hey started off at a furious rate, andwhizzed round many corners. Alter half.in .tour the visitor touched the chauffeurtimidly on the arm.

"1 beg your pardon," she said, "I knowI should not speak to you. I thought youmight be interested to know, though, thatfor the last quarter of an hour your mis-tress has not been in the carl"

EXPLAINED.Every man has his own particular vice,

they say, and most men with only onevice may consider themselves unusuallyblessed. The particular vice of the manin this story is gambling.

The other day a party of friends werediscussing with the gambler man the onesubject that interested him. "It's a funny.thing," commented Smith, "that althoughyou'fa so lucky at cards you never seemto win at horse-racing."

"You're, quite right. Bill,*' agreed th«gambler. "You see, I've never been ableto discover a satisfactory method ofshuffling racehorses."

FIBST COME FIRST SEBVED.Th« determined-looking woman was

standing at the hall door when the earlymorning visitor approached.

" Good morning, madam," he said, "canI &*>-. your husband for a moment?"

"Not home yet," snapped the woman."I just want to have a few words with

him,' went cm the caller, who half dis-believed her.

" So do I," was the snarled retort, "andas I'm waiting I'ere for that purpose sincelast night, I'm goings to be the first toha-e them with him, top," and the visitorsemibly slid away.

PEEK'S PLEA PSOBLEM.T/ord Leverhulrne recently propounded a

problem in the Weakly Dispatch, asking,_

*pxor>os of the following story:—"Who ~

Tras the lucky party, the man or. the flea?"Ho says there was a soldier -who had a

flea biting him in the neck when he "was inthe trenches. He stooped to get the fleaju't it the moment whan a bullet whistledoverhead.

Tbe soldier, realising his escape, paused,■with the flea in his fingers, and soiilo-qak«d: "You hare saved my life," quoth

_

he to the flea: "I cannot give you the~

Victoria Cross, but yon shall go and finish •your dinner." So saying he put the fleaback on his neck.

BEOTHEELY ADVICE,A certain curate 'Was of »_ painfully

nervous temperament, and, .in. • conse-quence, was constantly making awkward -

remarks—intended as * compliments—'to; shops and others. Having distinguished

himself in an unusual degree during agathering of clergy at an afternoon tea, ashort while ago, in the bishop's palace,' hewas taken to task for his failings by afsenfl&r curate, who was one of his com-panions on thouway home.

"Look here,' said the senior, decidedly,yon are a donkey. "Why can't yon keepquiet instead of making your asinine re-marks. I am speaking to you .as a !brother." j

Load laughter interrupted them at this Ipoint, and for the moment he did not see ''he joke.

' A TKV& WAS STOSY.Brevet-Colonel {temporary Brigadier-

General) C. Coffin, V.C., C.8., D.5.0.,or..- of the 16 officers appointed to com- 'mand Regular Brigades in divisions athome, is the hero of one of the best andhitherto unpublished, true stories of thewar.'

At one period bis brigade were workingwith the Port"' 'fee, and the commandercame to complain of our men's manner of itaddreating his men.An officer who was. present tells me

th.it General Coffin li-s'Tned gravely to theSoup indictment, and t pen, without even &

Sicker of an eyelid, dictated the followingbrigade order, which deserves to becomean army classic:

"hi future the troops on. our right willbo known a* 'Our Portuguese Allies.' andrj' t as 'The Pork and Beans.' "

SUFFICIENT SEASON.Admiral Sims way speaking about the.

high qualities boasted by the Americanf lor, and added . "lie cljvoloped a posi-tive genius for inventing reasons forsecuring shore leave. I call to mind able-seaman Murphy.

" What on earth do vou want shoreleave for this Urne# demanded his cap-tain, as -jut hero made his oft-repeatedrequest. 'lt <fein't your great-aunt'sfuneral, is it';' -" 'Faith, no sorr,' replied Murphy with

a <rrin, ' 'lis not so had as thot. It's—-bedad, I hates to tell ye'/, sorr.'

" 'Out with it,' roared the captain nowfortified for whatever new one Murphymight spring. 'l'll try and stand thechock.'

"'Well, sorr, it's loik this entoirely : Ihad the misfortune, sorr, to have a brother iborn blind. Heaven be praised, sorr, butthe ither day hi* sight was restored, an'be lad, he wants to see me, sorr.'

" 'I/nave granted,' snapped the captaina.- he burst into a fit of laughter."

i.ither's house, having exhausted his cxe-•■■'-. telegraphed to his parent: "Your sonV. .il'.er was killed this morning by a full-

Practically every Baker and Pastrycook in NewZealand uses CLOVER CREAM. Scones,

l etc made with Clover Cream are whiter andbetter in every other way.

Use Clover Cream exactly the same as Cream of TartarTry it for yourself and see the result I

Between 500 and 1000 tons were imported toNew Zealand from New York during the lastthree years.

The Baking Efficiency of Clover Cream is about 10% betterthan Cream of Tartar.
