RAILWAYS MAGAZINE
ANOTHER BRIGHT ISSUE
Readers of all kinds will find plenty of interest in the November issue of the Railways Magazine. James Cowans’ 32nd instalment of “Famous New Zealanders” is concerned with the Heuheu family, the hereditary paramount chiefs of Taupo, particularly with the great Te Heuheu Tukino, who gave Tongariro National Park to the State. In “Fixers and Fixes,” merrily illustrated by himself, Ken Alexander offers droll comment on that common type of “handy man” who is habitually a disastrous “Handy Andy.” Margaret MacPherson’s “New Zealand Journey” pleasantly takes her to the King Country and Tongariro National Park. 0. N. Gillespie brightly writes of Napier. “Limited Night Entertainments,” by R. Marryat Jenkins, is another thrilling story, cleverly told. The “Women’s Section, by Helen,” with a wide range of really helpful notes and comments, again deserves special mention. “Tohunga” serves another welcome page of the meanings of Maori names of railway stations. Amateur gardeners will be pleased with R. H. Allan’s article on “Daffodil Culture.”
