at the Racc Course fashion thanks to the

of generosity "Messrs. Dodwell & Co., Ltd, who, acting as agents of Mesars. John Buchanan, the well-known "wine and spirit merchants, have als tributed some very neat "covers" for race programmes,

Thèse covers take, the form of a pocket-book, and are so arrang- ed that the programme issued by B. the Jockey Club may be easily

slipped in..

An index number will be issued. in time for publication on the 20th of each month, and as the course of these traffic receipts has always afforded a valuable indication of world trading and commercial ac- tivity, it is hoped that, in addition to providing an indication of the Company's trame for its stock- holders, it will be found of value to observers of world economic conditions.

Index Numbers These index numbers represent the estimated monthly receipts i from traffic as related to compar- able traffic in the year 1929. It should be noted that since 1929. the operation in various overseas area, has been taken over at dif- ferent dates by the local associated companies, and the total figures for 1929 taken for purpose of cota- parison in establishing the index 100, have therefore been adjusted 1)

Quite a number of race-goers have already attached thelt pro- grammes to the cover, and as the popular belief is that John Buchanan always bring along good fortune, there should be many a happy smile at the Race Course this afternoon!
