Numbers of people—particularly business men—who have confidence in the State-guaranteed PublicTrustee as executor for their estates may nevertheless wish to secure the assistance. of intimate friends or relatives as advisory trustees to actin co-operation with the Public Trustee in the practical management of the estates. The testators believe that the advice of friends who have knowledge of details of the estates can lie of great value. The Public This* Office Amendment Act, 1913. has made provision for such co-operation. Practically the law assures and facilitates an efficient combination! o” the State-guaran-teed administration with the advice of private trustees or solicitors. Whether such advisory trustees are appointed or not. testators have the State guarantee that the resources of the Public Trust Office ar« adequate to the needs of anv estate. largo or small, simple or complex.

People out shopping and about the excited crowds in the main thoroughfares of the city nnd suburbs should bo very careful how they carry their money and the goods that they buy (states the Auckland “Star”). A lady who was doing somt* early Christmas business in Karangahapo Road on Friday evening paid dearly for an experience of the smartness of some skilled pocket thief. She entered a shop te purchase an article of jewellery and was astonished to find that her notes bad disappeared. However, she had a small sum of silver in another pocket so only paid for a small parcel she had purchased and received ss. change. She proceeded along the road feeling worried about her loss, nnd, meeting a friend, was explaining the incident. She, was then further amazed to discover that the article she had just purchased nnd the balance of her money were also gone. She has strong reasons for believing that the pickpocket was a woman. Similar cases of personal theft in Queen Street were reported. The Waterside Workers’ Band will play at Newtown Park at 8 o’clock tonight. Lieutenant Arthur Emerson was killed at Oklahoma City, U.S.A., recently while attempting to change from one aeroplane to another at the State Fair Grounds. Six thousand persons saw him fall 200 ft. Big money is often made out of the simplest inventions, providing, of course, that they are fully protected by Patent Rights. Patent that idea of yours, there is probably "big money” in it.
