In New York any journal that does not specialise-its turf and i's baseball. gaino reports suffers from a dissatisfied and diminishing clientele, diniy sh

But the enthusiasm for Football in Americs never approaches the English excitement over the career of the Totten ham Hotspurs or the Sheffield United, and accordingly it is not surprising that certain body of opinion considers the Rugby game as played by Harvard, Yale, Prince ton, Cornell, and Columbia the incarna tion of brutality, and favours the attempt to introduce Association, which the Ameri- oans apparently believe could be played by college men without the presence of an ambulance on the ground.

During a conversation with one of our representatives on the currency question the Hon. Mr Gershom Stewart expressed himself as being quite in accord with the Hon. Mr Showan's remarks concerning ■ gold currency for Hongkong.

I sympathise with the hardship at present entailed on gold-salaried employees I do not think it is a matter of public interest; rather it is one för private arrangement between employer sad, employed. Those who elected to receive their entire pay in gold, perhaps unwittingly entered into speculation in exchange, which, although it paid them some time ago, is not now quito so satisfactory. But one consoling thing to them is that they have youth on their side, otherwise they would not have been so hasty,
