There are two large cascades in the gege, known respectively as the Lower and Upper Falls. The former is on the. left side as the traveller ascends; it is not of great volume but its considerable height (about 100 feet) and the unbroken reach of its falling water make it a sight of much bounty. The ippor fall is at the point where the gorge comes to an end is a large pool or well. It is lower than the other (about 6 let) but of greater volume. Swimming in the pool near the foot of the fall is decidedly dangerous,

NEW MUSIC...

Messrs Enoch and Sons, Great Marlborough Street, London.

From the portfolio of new songs and masie, bearing this firm's imprint we select the following as being worthy of special attention. An attractive song, as beautiful as it is musicianly, is the second of Landon Ronald's Five Album Leaves "To ano beloved" (wards by Julia Cock Watson), published for low and high voices.

One of the finest Observatories in the

Brenda Gayne's "To call you mine" World is that of the Central Observatory (Chilton Bingham) also possesses distinctive ut the Philippine Weather Bureau on qualities, not the least of which is its well Calle Padre Faera. This was founded in thought out pianoforte part. This too is 1805 by the Jesuits and operated con-published in two keys.

Taking alike to the singer and the hoarer Herbert Oliver's "Cherry Blossom Time" (Ed Teschemacher) will appeal to a wide constituency. Musis and words go hand it head is sympathetic agreement from start to finish. It is published in 3 keys so is well within the ranges of the various voices.
