THE "WEEKLY PRESS."

The New Zealand soldiers in the Old Country and at the different fronts include a fine proportion from Canterbury, and they will be greatly interested in the issue of the "weekly Press" of today's date, with its splendid pictorial account of tbe snowfall, one equal to which bad never been experienced in their lifetime in the district. The pictures cover a great area of tho snowclad country and incidents in the efforts of the working parties who went out to re-establish communication and relieve the beleaguered garrison at Lake. Coleridge power housq, and the sale of the paper is so sure to be rapid that prompt application for it will be necessary, especially by those who may want to mail it to our men at the front. New Zealand's part in the taking of Samoa, in the first months of the war, and the question of the settlement of the Pacific Islands problem, make everything concerning these islands of double interest to the Dominion, and in this week's "Weekly Press" is a series of engravings depicting the celebration of the King's Birthday at Samoa, a Red Cross bazaar at Apia, and the progress of education at Rarotonga. In the war pictures there are reproduced a map explanatory of tho reason why Germans nnd pro-Germans talk so loudly about peace, and scenes from Prance illustrative of the Frenchmen's faith in the Allies' ultimate victory. This number of the "Weekly Press 1 ' is such an exceptionally attractive one that we would repeat our advice to anyone who contemplates ordering it to order it at once.
