THE NEED OF THE TIMES. BRICKS AND MOBE BRICKS. There is no greater need in the community than an ample supply of building material. It is to 6upply brioks of gpod quality by the million that the AVellington Brick Co., Ltd., is being floated. The promoters have secured an area of 14 acres of the highest grade of clay. On this property 12 bores have been put down, and pure clay to a depth of 45ft has, been found, sufficient for 400,000,000 bricks being available. The property abuts on to the railway within a few chains of the Johnsonville Railway Station. The most modern labour-saving machinery the world can offer will cut down manufacturing costs to bedrock. Thus, bricks and pipes will, within a few months, be poured into a starving market. Nor -will they be of ordinary quality, for the clay deposit owned by the promoters has been proved to be of very superior quality. . This is nnt a mere statement, but proved both by analysis and aotual tests. No one can doiibt the need for this company, which will come as a boon and a blessing to the thousands of worthy citizens now waiting to erect permanent, attractive homes at a reasonable coat. Few investors will fail to secure a copy of the prospectus (containing very full particulars) from the broker, A. Leigh. Hunt, Dominion Farmers' Institute, Wellington (tel. 22-565), at which office a range of samples of bricks, pipes, pottery, etc., can be seen. —Advt. The attention of members of the Wellington Accountant Students' Society is directed to an advertisement in this issue. ,
