on his recent visit to Auckland, the Minister for Defence made some remarks which indidated a fear on Ms part that reinforcements for the Maori Contingent might not be kept up to the mark. It is understood that within the last week such a number of Maoris have come forward for service tfhat there is no longer any doubt that the full complements of men required in the immediate future in the Maori section of our soldiers wii'.l be readily made up. Le Temps, commenting on the official information that Germany is sending three hundred thousand men per month to the different fronts to make up the wastage, says it is idle to speculate on how long Germany will be able to keep up the supplies of reserves because it is not known how many she intends to mobilise; but it is believed that the figures surpass all the previous estimates, because Germany will sacrifice the children of sixteen and men of sixty. Apparently, she is already embarrassed by the lack of men. Since the great offensive in Russia her losses have increased to such proportions that she is unable to make good with reserves, and has either called out or is about to call out every possible man. At the present moment she is*incorporating the final classes of the second band of Landsturm of 43 to 45, and also the 191.fi classes. She still has the 1817 class and is also inspecting youths of the 1918 class. One good point about “ISTAZOL” is that its use is simple and convenient. Whether taken on sugar or through the Nazol Inhaler, it positively relieves coughs, colds, catarrh, sore throat, and influenza. Bottles. 1/0.
