In the course of a lecture delivered in Lower Hutt Mr Johannes Andersen drew attention to the essential difference between the songs of New Zealand birds and those of other countries. While other birds’ sounded certain notes they never sang them in the same order, New Zealand birds, on the other hand, had definite themes which they always followed. Another distinctive trait of New Zealand birds was their morning choruses in which perhaps thousands of birds of different species joined in complete harmony. After a six months’ tour of Australia, 13 members of the Rev. A. J. Seamer’s Methodist Maori Choir have returned to the Dominion. The choir left New Zealand early this year at the invitation of the Melbourne Pioneers’ Association and the Methodist Church to assist in the final part of the centenary celebrations. At the conclusion of the celebrations the choir toured Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales and Queensland. Although the choir was accompanied by Mr Seamer, it was in the charge of the Rev. R. Tahupotiki . Haddon, of Taranaki, throughout the' tour. Each member of the choir, said Mr Seamer, had enjoyed the tour. The hospitality that had been shown toward them could not be spoken of too highly. “New Zealand will be the apex of both the Imperial Airways and PanAmerican Airways when the services are in operation,” said the Minister of Transport (the Rt. Hon. J. G. Coates) at Riverhead. “New Zealand will then cease to be the farthest-flung post of the Empire. It will not be the isolated ‘pig-island’ that ! t has been. We will be within a few days of London, within 35 to 38 flying hours of the United States. This will bring about an entirely different conception of the Empire and the world from what we have had. When our early settlers came out the voyage occupied from three to six months. Now it takes five or six weeks by direct vessels, but in a few years people will be landing in New Zealand in five days after starting from Eng- i land.”
