SUBJECTS FOR THE CINEMATOGRAPH.
It is not recorded whether a cinematograph fiend accompanied the Territorials on their march to the town of Dannevirke recently, but had he done so, he would have had a few pictures worthy of production, A pjotor car driver had just arrived on a bridge when he espied “the sojers’’ marching along the structure. He immediately backed off the bridge, but in doing so fell into a deep ditch alongside the approach. Seeing the mishap the soldiers were halted by their commander, and they quickly rescued the occupants —two men, a woman and two children—from the water. Then they picked up the car bodily and deposited it on the road ! Later on in camp when the piano was being “thumped” a wag from one corner yelled out, “Eh, pass us the ‘peanuer.’ ” Suiting the action to the word the piano was promptly passed hand over baud, to tfie corner, amidst cheers!
