Brief Notices Back Issues: Some back issues of the magazine have become very scarce, and it has been decided to raise the prices of these issues so as to eke out the supply for the benefit of collectors. Prices per copy are as follows: Issues 6, 8, 9, 5/-; Issues 10–11, 14–17, 3/-; Issues 18–26, 2/-. Renewal Strickers: If your subscription is expiring, you will find an expiry sticker on the wrapper of your issue. Please examine the wrapper carefully and if the sticker appears on it send us a renewal as soon as possible on the form enclosed with the issue. Contributions in Maori: Ko tetahi o nga whakaaro nui o Te Ao Hou he pupuri kia mau te reo Maori. Otira ko te nuinga o nga korero kei te tukua mai kei te reo Pakeha anake. Mehemea hoki ka nui mai nga korero i tuhia ki te reo Maori ka whakanuia ake te wahanga o ta tatou pukapuka mo nga korero Maori. A Disclaimer. The Department of Maori Affairs does not hold itself responsible for the opinions expressed by contributors to Te Ao Hou. We do our best to check the facts, but the responsibility for statements in signed articles remains the author's alone. Price of this issue. The bookshop price of this special Auckland issue has been fixed at 2/6 instead of the usual 2/-. This was done because the size and the cost of the Auckland issue is much higher than usual. The magazine as a text in schools. Our subscription rate for schools is 4/- per year (min. 5 subscriptions). It is gratifying to report that one school has ordered over a hundred copies at this price under the new “free textbook” scheme. Cover Photograph: Maoris coming to Auckland.
