“Shibli” Listens in.

I hear that Jack Gilmour, the New Zealand cartoonist, is now in Australia.

Ian Coster, formerly of the defunct Auckland “Sun,” has been appointed film critic of the London “Evening Standard.” Previously he was with the “Sunday Dispatch” and managing editor of “Nash's Magazine.”

I hear that the “Australian Woman's Weekly” contemplates publishing a New Zealand edition at an early date.

A vastly improved magazine is “The New Zealand Licensee.” Free lance contributors will be interested to know that it pays for contributions.

“Landseekers,” the great new Australian novel, ran into a second edition within a week of publication.
