A climp up Pukemurimuri (with M'r Lang's kind permission) added to the enjoyment of the afternoon. Those who were there were rewarded with a jnost magnificent viewf of the country from To Aroha to Pirongia, as well as most of- the rest of the Waikato. A full account of our climb will be published as soon as space can be found for it. .

Outdoor Club members, don’t forget next Saturday. We are biking out to Eotp-o-rang'i to join in with the club girls there. Bring 2d with you for sausages and we’ll make-a picnic of it. Meet at the hall at one o’clock, if possible. The rest will leave at 1.30 p.m.

NOVEL HEATING- PLAN UTILISATION OF WALLPAPER. The homes of the future mlay be heated by the wallpaper. A London scientist—■working' on the principle that the. ihumian' body is always' radiating heat to ©older objects —bias invented a system which will raise the temperature of any room' as high ate that needed for human wellbeing. In his- new wallpaper there i's embedded 1 an elaborate system: of line copper-nickel netting. The walls of a room are scraped and sandpapered. Cracks are filled with a non-conducting paint. The whole surface is .treated with; whitewash, and' the prepared wallpaper is applied: in the ordinary way. When the netting is connected with the electrical system the resistance to the. current raises .the temperature as high ;as 85 deg. Fahrenheit —if you don’t mind perspiring.
