Commemorating Lovelock's Victory.

There have been suggestions that Lovelock's great victory at the Olympic Games should be commemorated in New Zealand in a manner befitting the occasion. With a National Art Gallery now available for the housing of national treasures, there is a suitable niche in the hall of fame for a bronze statuette of the “world's greatest luiler.” Lovelock has been acclaimed as the world's greatest miler, and also the most perfect runner. Surely a statuette of him in action would tend to instill enthusiasm into the minds of the young citizens of New Zealand.

Then there is, too, the possibility of inaugurating a “Sports Section” in tlie National Art Gallery and Museum at Wellington. There must be numerous fine trophies hidden away in private homes—trophies which testify to the skill of New Zealanders in overseas sport. What better resting place could be found for them than a sports section in the Capital City? With a statuette of Lovelock as the centrepiece and a collection of sporting trophies, too, such a section would attract the youths of the nation.

When a. dock labourer appeared before a Whitechapel magistrate charged with assaulting his wife the poor woman pleaded for him. “He's a good husband,” she told his Worship, “as long as he ‘as his pipe, but it won't always run to it, and then he sometimes loses “is temper.” The magistrate nodded understandingly. He evidently knows the value of tobacco as a peacemaker. It certainly makes for domestic happiness, as a famous novelist told us long ago, and probably does more to prevent “angry passions” from rising than all the drugs in a chemist's shop —always provided that it's as pure and good as it ought to be. If it isn't it may play up with you! The safest of all tobaccos arc the genuine toasted brands, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish. Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold. The toasting they get at the factory (the manufacturer's exclusive process) absorbs the nicotine, while for flavour and aroma there's no other tobacco to approach them. Connoisseurs say they compare favourably with anything from overseas.”^*
