PHOTOGRAPHS IN WEEKLY NEWS.

It is perhaps somewhat difficult to realise from, a written narrative the character of the country where the New Zealand and Australian forces landed in Gallipoti: but auemarkable series of photographs taken in the firing-line will bo published it. tomorrow's issue of the Auckland Weekly News, and these will give a clear idea of the nature of the country upon which the, colonial troop* have made history The photographs were taken by a New Zea- > lander at the front. The frontispiece is a splendid photograph showing New Zealand and Australian troops actually under fire. Tin is a full-page picture, which shows the* colonials taking a wounded comrade .•••<ay from the firing zone after having Lur.daged his injuries. Others are soon moving -.long the rough and difficult country up ;■< the brow of a ridge, while across the » tor in the distance can be seen the \ ir.«hip£ which assisted in the landing ope .'is. Another excellent photograph -hows New Zealanders and Australians advancing up a hill through the sir l /' ,ind narrow paths. There are also st-eral other pictures showing the troops tinder cover as the shrapnel bursts overhead. It is anticipated that there will be an exceptionally keen demand for fo-iwn-nw'a issue of the Weekly News, as the photographs referred to will be the' fir.-. «a» pictures from tho Dardanelles published here.
