The principal of the Hutt Valley High School, Mr. J. N. Millard, in his' report to the Board of Governors of the school, expresses the opinion that the homework done by pupils during the enforced closing of the school was of very little benefit. He states: “The school work has suffered considerably .from the enforced closing of the schools. Practically all the pupils carried out the correspondence work conscientiously, but the teachers have found that almost all of it has to be done over again at school. .Personally, I was very disappointed, with the correspondence work of my own pupils. In many cases I found that, practically no benefit had resulted.” . ' Quaint and unfamiliar in size, shape, and “feel” are the new English threepenny pieces, one of which was shown to a “Dominion” reporter. The coin is rather larger than a New Zealand sixpence and nearly twice as thick, or one-tenth of an inch through. Made of a bronze alloy that gives it the appearance of a new penny, it has little or no ring and is a decidedly heavy and bulky object as coins go. Its principal peculiarity is that it is not round, but has 12 edges and no milling. On one side is a clear-cut and attractive profile of the King. On the other side is the reason why the coin' is punningly called the thrift 'threepence—a clump of the thrift plant wrought into a design with three flowers. Surrounding the design is the simple legend, “Three pence, 1937.” New supplies of books just to hand. “The Greenstone Door,” by Satchell, 4/6, postage sd. “Cheerful Yesterdays,” by Judge Alpers, 7/6, postage 6d. “Science of Dairying,” by Aness and Johnston, 5/- ,postage 4d. “An American Angler in Australia, ’’ by Zane Grey, 12/6, postage 6d. “Mac’s Memories,” by Cunningham, 7/6, postage 6d. “Better Sight Without • Glasses,” by Buyaun, 5/-, postage 4d. “The Art of Healing,” by Souster, 1/-, postage 3d, at B.

Sense of taste gone or heavy feeling and glassiness of eyes are all signs of catarrh. That burning full feeling up the nasal passage is Nasal Catarrh. Head noises and dullness of hearing are signs of catarrh. (Tavener’s Anticatarrh is a positive cure). Constipation and sluggish livers are frequently caused by catarrh.
