THE "WEEKLY PRESS."

Tbe departure of the first scction of tho 20th Reinforcements to join the Anxncg at the front provides the chief pictures in tTjc next issue ot the "Weekly Press," and '?> another evidence of New Zealand'** determination to "carry on" until, as a very prominent statesman put it, "that international arch-criminal, Germany, is no longer able to outrage the world." The engravings are euppl®mcntary to those of previous Heinforcoments. and show that our soldiers £0» and their friends send them away, with a joyous confidence ot' ultimate success. The scenes on the wharfs and on the; transports as they prepared to pull out aro splendidly depicted, and will tend to increase the popularity of our contemporary in this class ot pictorial reporting. The manner in which the New Zealand wounded are attended.*® ,n England is illustrated in the pictures from the "Morant Hospital at Brockerthurst and there is a speaking portrait of Flight-Lieut. A. Brandon, the successful Zeppelin destroyer. Of other pictures arising from the war there &T0 many of an interesting character, notably the British East African Constabulary, Russian Cossacks rounding up artillery, horeog being attended to by the vcterinaries on the battlefield, and a humorous scene of "morin«j day at the front. Illustrations relating to the admirable Red Cross work being locally carried on, and other subjects of an equally attractive character, make the "Wceklv Press" a most desirably paper for distribution everywhere, and in addition it a number of seasonable Christmas stories.
