WHAT'S IN A NAME?
Facetiously tho "Financial Times" remarks:—"The palm must be awarded to the Bank of Australasia for its courage in opening a branch at Ngnowangerupp. This township of a mystic namo ;s situate in the State of West Australia, and it must be an added worry to tho clerks of that bank when customers aro rash enough to propose to transact business with the new branch. Some reduction in the casualty rate might havo been secured if the bank had, for instance, circulated with the announcement of the opening of the branch a small pamphlet defining the proper pronunciation of the name."
