Topical illustrations in this week’s issue of the “New Zealand Sporting and Dramatic Review” cover a wide range of attractive subjects, and should make a universal appeal. The Egmont Racing Club’s meeting is given prominent space, with a remarkably striking series of snapshots showing phases of leading events. The Gisborne Racing Club’s fixture forms another interesting portion of the pictorial section, while snaps at Takapuna on the final day of the Jockey Club’s fixture and miscellaneous meetings abroad are comprised in an animated set. The beautiful centre pages are devoted to winter sports in Scotland and Switzerland, American athletes, and Paris beauties The well-selected group of associated photographs shows a spectacular fall at Kenton • Steeplechase (England'. Giant cross-channel plane, Tuileries Gardens, International Dog Show in Paris, New Zealand Swimming Championships, Sydney .Harbour, Launching a Battleship, and numerous others of up-to-date appeal. A page of exquisite fashions from New York will strike the eye readily, while a new departure in a page of numerous sketches should provide agreeable diversion. Stage, motion picture and society have a generous representation in charming portraits. The “Review” is on Bale at ail book* Ear* sad stMttonert—Advt.
