Motorists passing through unfamiliar county districts are often at a loss to know where they are, and the Auckland Automobile Association, _ sympathising with its members in this littlo difficulty, lately conceived the idea of requesting the Education Board to have the name of the school district painted on all schools so as to be visible from the road. The request came before the hoard, but members could not see their way clear to give effect to it by reason of the fact that there nro 700 schools in the Auckland district, and the expenditure, about £IOOO, would be rather heavy. Tt was decided that no objection would he made, however, to tho association itself painting in the names. We repeat, the best advertisers of “No-Rubbing" Laundry Felp are the urars.—Oishorne Grocer* 17 Omega watches, in all grades, pocket and wristlet, from 55/-, at W.
