CROWDS GATHER IN QUEEN ST.
DANCING IN A SHOP WINDOW. The unusual spectacle of several midget men and maidens dancing in a shop window in Queen Street was responsible on Saturday morning for a constant press of interested spectators whose numbers were at times sufficient to impede the flow of pedestrian traffic on the footpath. Messrs. J. R. McKenzie's establishment was the shop that held this intriguing display, and the seriousness and decorum of the dancing models was such as to provo highly amusing to a people who have become accustomed to the boisterous abandon of jazzing. Each little dancer was perfectly costumed with the addition that each was girt about, as with a sword, by that mightier instrument which has reached itg highest modern expression in the Eversharp pencil. Surely a most useful armoury, not only for dance programmes, but throughout the complexities of pre-sent-day life, where engagements or appointments must be noted at once if one is not constantly to bo in default. As these pencils are claimed to live up to their name, Eversharp, and are retailed in a wide variety of style and prices, they are eminently suited as gifts, combining the greatest utility with an efficiency which is really remarkable. They are equipped with the patented, rifled steel tip, which holds the lead firmly and ready for use at all times.
