SUPERB SPORTING NUMBER. PUBLICATION OF ISSUE TO-DAY. The superb special issue of the Auckland Weekly News, in which a great feature is made of illustrating New Zealand's wonderful angling and game-hunt-ing, will be available to the public today.

In the letterpress section is a fine series of articles describing the sport in its many phases.

In all, the number contains nearly 100 splendid pictures, and a fine- frontispiece of His. Excellency the Governor-General, Sir Charles Fergusson, fishing the Tongariro River, gives added interest to the section of the illustrations dealing with the world-famous rainbow trout of tho Taupo district.
