• All unusual si”;lit was witnessed off | Cape Moreton (Q.) recently, when an I enormous school of blue sharks, estij mated to bo from 12ft to loft in length, and at least 1500 strong, came from the south and headed in round Cape Moreton towards the bay.

The charge preferred against some of the well-known companies of America of having combined, contrary to the Sherman law, to monopolise cinematograph business, was discussed recently with a Press Association representative by an official of the London branch of the firm. “The proceedings,’’ the official said, “arc probably in the nature of a test case, for which the authorities might have selected any other industry. The combine has existed since the early days of the'lndustry, but it does not exist in this country, or indeed, in any other country other than the United States. There are 10 firms involved ; here they would be competitors. Whether the proceedings result in the break up of the combine or not }is quite insignificant. In this country, where no arrangement exists, as I in America, the bigger firms lead the way.

Baldwin and Hayward, Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, and Dunedin. Being export engineers, they are particularly well qualified to assist you.

Swetman, Deep Lead, Victoria. “Then I tried Chamberlain’s: Cough Remedy and got immediate relief from the first dose. By tho time I had finished a large bottle the disagreeable hacking cough and the pains in the chest disappeared altogether.”*
