ANTI-SHOUTING
SEVERE FINES IMPOSED. By Telegraph.—Presa Association. WhangareF, March. 15. As tho result of police surveillance, no fewer than 19 anti-shouting oases came before the Whangarei Magistrate's Court to-day, Mr. Burton, S.M., presiding. The proceedings were very protracted. Thorn as Marshall, for treating at tho Farnabay Hotel, was fined £20. Thomas Blood, licensee of the same hotel, had to answer two ,charges. For knowingly selling liquor illegally, he was fined £30, and for "permitting treating' 5 ho was convicted and discharged. In the case of "knowingly selling," the Magistrate commented that the law was ,not only intended to prevent a person allowing drinking to excess and disgracing the King's 'uniform, but to_curtail unnecessary expenditure on luxuries, when it was all important to help the State by every means to bring the war to a. successful issue.
