LIGHT CARS FOR IMMEDIATE DELIVERY.

Notwithstanding tho success which has attended the introduction by us to' tho New Zealand market of the latest types of light car—Continental, British, and American—and the many, sales made during tho past few weeks, our stocks are largo enough to enablo us to still offer for immediate delivery a very complete range of cars. In our Cnristchurch garage at present we are showing a superbly beautiful 3-seater 16-22 h.p. Silent Knight Minerva, a car which connoisseurs agree is tho most handsome in appearance and tho most perfect in mechanism ever brought to Canterbury. Despite its dignified luxury of equipment, its ample wheelbass and capacious body, the Minerva car is a genuine liglit-ivcight and economical on both the tyres and petrol. Those natty, dashing little British lightweights, the "Handsome Humbers," are represented by a very fine four-seater 11-15 h.p. car, finished with characteristic neatness and thoroughness. The great Trench firm of Clement-Bayard, whose engineers are at present constructing airships for the British War Office, are represented bv a 10-15 h.p. chassis, to which a body can'be built to order, and a threcscater (London-built body) on a similar chassis. The renowned American firm of Studoijnker is represented by two-seater and four-seater Studebakor-l'landers cars of 20 h.p., and tho five-seater StudebakerB M.F. of 30 h.p. Anyone who is dubious about the workmanship in these powerful and popular American cars will have his doubts banished by an inspection at our Christchurch garage of tho sectional J3.M.1?. chassis, which we have on view m the garage for educational purposes. All these cars aro brand-new, latest models, and all are light-weights. All aro there to be sold. Adams, Ltd., Garage, Tuam Street, near High Streot shop.

Trout are very plentiful in the Motu River, and sportsmen are experiencing some excellent fishing, reports a Motu correspondent. A well-known local settler hooked a line big fish a few days ago, and like many amateurs, displayed too much anxiety to land his maiden, with the result that ho lost trout and tackle. Dr. Collins, of Gisborne, who has been on a visit to Motu, is. also indulging in tho sport. He finds tho lish, which are frequently to be seen in shoals, quite savage for the bait. Trout are now found as far as Matawai, fourteen miles by river foom where they were first liberated. Being one of tho few rivers in the district specially suited for trout culture, Motu promises to be an angler's paradise, especially with tho advance of railway facilities.

The confercnce of university professors has now concluded, and an official report of tho business will be shortly available for publication. In regard to Professor Marshall's motion relating to tho deputation oi' the Univerity Reform Association to tlie Prime Minister, it is stated, that it was ruled out, with several others, by the chairman, on account of a motion to wind up the business of the conference.
