'i`lic fact that from 24 to 80 iiieii

are to‘be seen cnrliiig overy afternoon, and that quite a nuinber oi' spectators, including ladies, are eagerly watching the giinie, and that the performance is siinllarly repeated and watched every evening, indicates to some ex- tent tlic enthusiasm aroused in what is usually regarded ns the greatest giiinc in the world. 'l‘lie ladies ofthe Curling tlluh make it ii point to be on the spot proiiiptly nt 10 a.in. each day. and to leavc, not unite so prompt- ly. sninewlicrc about 1 o'cIock.

FINANCE HEALTHY

IN AUSTRALIA.

MELBOURNE, Australia, Feb. 3.-

The report and balance sheet ot’ the National Batik ot' Australia, Ltd., t'or the halt year to Sept. 30, showed a net profit of £91,073, which, added to .£16,472 brought forward. gave an amount of .£107,545 available for dis- tribution as follows:

Transfer to' reserve fund, £25,000;

reduction ot’ bank premises, £5,000; grant to officers' provideiit fund £2,- 000; dividend at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum on preference shares .£10,- 702; ditto on ordinary shares, .£41,- 735; to carry forward £23,107. _

ln the cliaIriii:in's address to the

shareholders. John Grice reviewed

'several aspects of the financial state-

ment, and pointed to the possibilities of reduced prohts under the contiiiu- ance of the present financial conditions ol' great drawbacks to prosperity, dur- ing which there would be many de- mands upoii the leading resources of Australia.

Mr. Grlcc emphasized the necessity

on the part of all governnicni. bank- ing aiid other financial institutions, of very careful and constant control of resources, and the restriction of loans and expeiidlture to iiccessary pur- poses. ._

With .such careful' iiianageinciit hu

considered there was no reason why, the financial position ot' Australia should not continue to be, as at pres- ent, sound and healthy. -
