A particularly fine series of photographs dealing with the train journey of the Auckland section of the troops from Wellington, should prove of great interest, while another page depicting scenes at Wellington and Auckland, and showing groups of the wounded, is bound to attract considerable attention. On another page is shown a splendid picture of the crowd that assembled in the main thoroughfare of Auckland to welcome the soldiers.

In addition to the pictures described, there are several fine photographs of war scenes at the Dardanelles. This week the Roll of Honour contains a large number of portraits of the New Zealand men who have suffered in the fight against the Turks.
