Even the New Zealand Official Tear Book contains some humour. Of all places the least likely to contain such a welcome diversion would be -the index, and yet there some of the most succulent titbits of the book are fcund. The various items appearing in the index are arranged in strict alphabetical order, and one is struck -with the coincidental associations that occur. Amongst the E’s “egg” is immediately followed by “ elections,” -which seems appropriate. In the H’s -“hay, quantities consumed,” preceeds 4 ‘ heads of departments.” In the A’s “ Assembly, general members,” is immediately followed by “asses' and mules,” while “geese” and “general Assembly” are associated in the G’s.
