The D.i.C. have just unpacked from billows of tissue paper fascinating creations of satin, georgette, moire, and taffetas, wonderfully made and the last word in fashion. And not least of the merits of many of these new gowns is their inezpensiveness. For instance, Aero is one fascinatlng i ace over primrose chiffon, cut to a low V at the back and subtly moulded to the figure. A soft cape falls from the shoulders to the waist at the back; the skirt is flared, and falls in a petalled line at the foot, dipping at the sides and to the ankles at the back. And this masterpiece is priced at £6/16/6. . Another charming Frock is of palest pink georgette, with a delicate tracery of studded diamante round the neck. note is the tailored belt finished with a jewelled buckle. This Frock shows the fitting hip line, skilfully flared skirt, and the so fashionable dip at the back. Priced 4t £5/15/6, Worthy of mention are the new Printed Art Taffeta Frocks. One really chic model is of a mimosa shade, with a small design in autuim. colours.' It is cut low at the back, and at the base of the V is a large butterfly bow and a diamante buckle. The skirt is a full circle flaring from a snugly hMing band\at the hips. Priced at A Lettuce Green Frock of plain art taffeta is made with a cleverly flared and dipping skirt falling from the normal waist line. A beautiful design of appliqued taffeta and gold thread occupies much of the front of the skirt. This Frock is priced at £5/5/. Inspection Cordially Invited DIC Dunedin. NOW READY. NOW READY. A GREAT COLONISER: The Rev. Dr. THOMAS BURNS Pioneer Minuter of Otago, New Zealand, and nephew of the poet Robert Bum% By the Rev. Dr. E. N. Merrington, Master of Knox College, Dunedin. . tbi*i book the author traces the interesting life-story of the Rev. Dr. Thomas ourns. It is an important contribution to the history of colonisation, which has been Call f d .. rt> mance of the nineteenth century. The letters of Bums to Cargill, wntten duringthe four years which followed the Scottish Disruption, now published for the first time, reveal the apparently insurmountable obstacles , which confronted the leaders of the proposed Scottish enterprise, 5° ~ e apm’t in which the difficulties were finally overcome. . T l ”* book describes the voyage of the pioneers, the hardships of the early days, the successful establishment of the church, the school, the town of Dunedin, and the province of-Otago. This biography will do much to re-create the remarkable personality of a Presbyterian .minister to whom a noble column stands in the heart of Dunedin, but whose real monument might almost be said to be the churches, schools, colleges, and even the university of the province which he did so much to establish. “It is well for students of Scottish history and future historians of the Empire to note that, from Mossgiel, there emanated not only songs which have delighted the world, and have knit together Scotchmen all the world over, but also an earnest Umstian minister, with statesmanlike gifts. Who played a most important part in ex- . tending and strengthening out Empire in a far-away part of the globe *~The Rev. Dr. Kirkwood Hewat, M.A.. F.S.A. (Scot ) Now ready (with aiostrations).
