Particular interest attaches to this week’s issue of the “N.Z. Sporting and Dramatic Review,” in view of the approach of the Christmas racing carnival. Exclusive photographs are featured of every candidate for Auckland Cup honours at Ellerslie on Boxing Day. making an impressive array of notable horses. Snapshots at the Waipa Racing Club’s meeting at Tc Awamutu will also be found of interest. A unique feature is the series devoted to the pupils of the Epsom Girls’ Grammar School,, showing them in various poses of ju-jitsu as instructed bv Captain McLaglan, world champion. Strikingly artistic are the centre pages depicting picturesque scenes in Holland. Swimmers at the Parnell Baths effectively adorn one page, and a set of fashions from Paris will have a special appeal to the feminine taste. Graphic pictures of the Olvmpia Motor Spcedwav in Svdnev add variety to a well-chosen selection, and there are numerous miscellaneous subjects covering all sports and pastimes, both locallv and overseas. The stage and motion. picture worlds have an attractive showing and altogether there is everything to commend it to esidents and visitors at this festive season.—Advt.
