Figures recently published as to the cost of running the big dance halls now se popular are startling. The owner of one in a London sub-per cent. for the year), urb says that his actual weekly outlay is £215. The two bands cost. £100, staff £50, rent £26, lighting £20, and Advertising £20.
The nearer you get to the centre of London the higher the expenses. The mere rent of a large danco hall in the West End is £500 a week, and £600 more goes in the other expenses. As the charge for admission is only half-a-crown, such a hall must have at least 8,000 visitors weekly simply to cover ex- penses and before a penny of profit can be made. A few bad days mean a very serious loss.

the water had to be carried upstairs by hand.
The wages of the different prades run from 36s. to 235 weekly. The total running expenses of such a show while it is on the road are at least £200 a day, and the risks are proportionately great.

PROFITS AT THE G.P.O.
The General Post Office is one of the best paying concerns run by the Government at Home, and dur- ing the year ended March 31 last the postal department showed a net surplus in hand of £7,416,266. Telephones were also profitable with £550,830 to the good, but there was a loss on telegraphs.
The total income collected from the sale of stamps was £35,452,087; the cost of their manufacture, to sether with postal orders, etc., amounting to £149,917.. There was an increase of well over £10,000,000 in the receipts from telephones, white wireless licences brought in nearly £200,000 more than in the previous year.
This company has recently been formed to handle the increasing de- mand for Amplion products in Germany, and will be manufactur- ing at an early date.
