care of and they can probably get
evry choice positions If they turn in
early copy, but our working force
will be busy with the chow-chow
aforesaid getting it. ready for our
readers. If people find it worth pre-
serying for future reference or If
they>fnd pleasure in persuing it dur
ing the holiday season we shall be
satisfied with our efforts.
Our next edition will be a Christ
mas number, but not in the sense
that is usually understood. It will
go to xhe people on Christmas eve,
but unfortunately the people living
or the rural routes will not receive

PROPOSE MERGER OF
ALL LONDON NEWSPAPERS

LONDON, March ga shadow fell
across the placid path of English
journalists today. There is move
ment afoot to induce all London news
papers to pool theirsproperties and ls-
sue a single sheet, thus releasing the
stats of all but one for active duty at
the front. They're trying it on the dog
first. When the stats of the two local
papers in the little village of Peter
bourough appeared before the military
tribunal for their regular semi-annual
exemption they were informed that
the Mayor had decided the two papers
should merge into one, and that half Of
them could go and get measured for
khaki.
The proprietors naturally sat up on
their hind legs and howled.
But the ears of tribunal are deaf,
and the publishers have less than a
month to think it over.
Meanwhile, the movement is spread
ing in London.

NEW ZEALAND TROOPS
GET A HIGH PAY

WELLINGTON, New Zealand, March
22-From the fact that New Zealand
soldiers in this war may" now be paid
up to $40 week above their ordinary
wages is asserted in the dominion that
they are the highest paid soldiers in the
world. The special allowance is for
men who can establish that their civil
obligations justify their receiving it.
And it is payable alike to vents" and
"sents"-as volunteers or drafted men
are called. One of the grounds en-
titling soldier to additional payment
is: Expenses in respect of the man
agement of his business during his mil
itary service"
Prior to the new grant the weekly
rate of pay for married private in
the New Zealand expeditionary force
ranged from $1,000 for a man with a
wife only to support to ST. for man
with a wife and five children. Some
time ago the Recruiting Board decided
to refuse enlistment to any more mar
ried men with more than three chill
dren. Under the new scheme a private
with a wife only may" receive $2O.5O
a week.
The first draft OF the dominion
compulsory enlisted men to the num-
Der of over 1000 went into camp the
latter part of January. These men
were chosen by the ballot" or draft
ing system; that is, by the use OF num-
bered marbles and card indexes. They
are no different in appearance or in
any other detail from voluntary re-
cruits. Meantime voluntary enlistment
continues in some districts. If the full
quotas are obtained that way, the bal
lot system is not applied there.
The men drafted with but few excep,
tions respond cheerfully, and many Of
them plainly welcomed system by
which the government shouldered the
responsibility OF deciding that they
were to take up arms.
With over 10000 men in the field Oh
in training the civilians walks of life
in New Zealand have been depleted t.
a noticeable extent, but the genera
opinion is that as long as the major
part of these men return the temper.
airy loss of man-power will not have
been too heavy price to pay for the
establishment of future nationa

CHINA WANTS TO RESTORE
