F. E. Mackenzie has settled down to dusty law again in the Queen City. He had an attack of malaria, which he caught just after leaving Africa, but has managed to throw it off again. He is a leading light in the Acclimatisation Society, and is keen on stocking the National Park with heather, bilberry, and grouse. Lately he has become an engaged homme—to a Miss Bews, of Remuera.

L. P. Leary has become a partner in Bamford and Brown, and is due to become one of the shining lights of the bar. He is writing a drama for the Extravaganza, entitled "Bill Stoney," which is "the goods."

G. H. Seddon is Assistant Land Registrar in Auckland. He is playing hockey for A.U.C. seniors, and taking the part of Donan Coyle in the Extravaganza.

R. Gardner, F. H. Fielder, and J. C. Smith are all taking Science. Rumour has it that the last devotee sleeps on the premises.

Professor P. W. Burbidge (Physics) and Mr. T. L. Lancaster (Botany) are the biggest grafters on the Science staff.
