The gathering of the in- sects caused consternation. ’I‘hcy ad- vanced through the country in armies. devouring crops and leaving fields as bare as if the seed had not been sown. A tclcgram published in the leading New Zealand newspapers about that time stated that the morning and even- ing trains bctwccn Waverley and Nuku- morn in the Wauganui district, on the west coast of the North Island, were brought to a standstill owing to count- less thousands of caterpillars being on the rails. which had to be swcpt and sanded before the trains could continue their journeys. . Some of the native birds performed good service by eating insects, but the nativc birds of New Zculand are shy and will not dwcll with men. The scl- tlcrs. therefore, turned their attention to tho lusccbcuting birds of the old country.

There is a hue and cry against. them, and most of the furmcrs in the colony would now willingly banish them from the land if they could. The' writer adds: Thesqvcrdict is written on a circular which 'I prepared some months ago, and which the do partment of agriculture issued for me throughout the colony. . .

Some of the old customs kept up in English schools by way of tradition Stem very curious to the student if til-day. Their excuse for being is far in the. past, and robbcd of all meaning. they play a senseless part in the drama of school life. Within the last quarter of a century many of these practises have been abolished in the conviction that, however valuable historical tradi- tion may be, much of it is useless lum- ber. hindering progress. Such a law, as for many years was nominally in force at Eton, was. on tho very face of it. both useless and ridiculous. The river at Eton was regarded as being “in bounds"; that. is, the students could go there at any time without per- mission. But the road which lcd to the river was out of bounds. River sports held a large and encouragcd place in school life, and yet to get to this per- missible spot Eloniuns must go on for- bidden ground. - Of course this rule could not be actu- ally enforced. thn a mastcr mct a boy on his way _to the rivcr, the master ISSUE NO. 38â€"07. ‘lllt‘l‘t‘ lltll'l‘ lK'i‘il two sllgcssivo cases, Dr. Armand royorls that in (1 vii- lage of only 400 illimlritan‘s film-c worn“ in the space of sm-cn yours clrvon deaths from ('ltlllft‘l‘. all praclujully or:- rltrl'lng in the surnc block of lamps.

T he transmitting apparatus and the receiving apparatus are contained in one small case which can be quite easilv carried on the back of one man. Its total weight is only nineteen kilo- grammes. A complete station, conmst- ing of this case, the batteries. a 50-foot pole and a network of thin wxrcs can be handled on the march by three men. The pole is made in sections. of about six feet each, and its total weight 18 only 30 kilogrammcs.
