j PAVEMENT OF GERMAN | SKULLS. In an account of the situation at Neuve Chapeile an American correspondent states tihat the ground to the west of the now shattered town from which the British drove the Germans in the middle of March with such terrible loss of life on both sjides, is literally cobbled with German skulls. Dead lie buried in shallow graves ■everywehre, and the whole place is strewn with wreckage. The scene can best be likened to the site of a Western American town razed by a cy- [ clone. The British have made everything as tidy as they can, but six inches of bayonet will meet the resistance of clotih of human flesh, while in the "no man's landi" 1 between thU tipw British line and the German trenches to the east bodies still lie thick. In former geological times large pine forests, somewhat similar, probably, to the famous kauri forests of Auckland Province, grew in Canterbury. Like the kauri, they contained resin. Samples of these, in a fossil condition, sometimes are discovered in the ground, appearing freely in coals and in clay near coals. Fhen pieces are thrown into the fire they burn in the same way as kauri gun, with a thick dark smoke. They are called amberite, after amber. An exceptionally good specimen has been presented to Canterbury Museum. It was found in a clay bank in the Waihoa Downs, South Canterbury. Other specimens have been found in bitumin- ; ous coals at "Westport.
