RECRUITING CENSUS.

Tn connection with the scheme for the 50,000 extra recruits, over a hundred replies (so far unopened) have been received by the municipal recruiting authorities for the Shire of Wannon, and during the next week or two (when holiday makers will have returned to their homes) there is expected to bo a hi» budget of answers. In fact the number to be received must equal the number of enquiries sent out, and everyone is to be ac

counted for. It is' said tr.at some persons have torn up their paper0, imagining that by doing so they have disposed d them, but this is a delusion which will entail an enquiry and possibly discomfiture. Neglect to send the papers in is illegal, and everyone so offending will be dealt with accord ing to law.

, CHRISTMAS EVE.

Colernine showed its usual animation on Christmas Eve. The main

street was thronged, the shopkeepers were kept intensely busy, and the weather being pleasant everyone seemed to bn in the right seasonable mood. The air was enlivened by a programme of music given by the Coleraino Brass Band which is sliow■ int; distinct-improvement.

" A HERO OF THE DARDA

NELLES."

" A Hero of the Dardanelles" is

the title of the premier subject to be shown at the Red Cross picture show on Saturday evening, and this

will combine all the attributes of a i good lovo story and the thrilling features of actual warfare. The story is founded on the notable exploit, which has beeu chronicled iu almost every newspaper, wherein an Australian and a Turk engaged in a struggle for life on the edge of a cliff. This incident is shown with all due regard lor the requirements of reality, and is generally recognised as a real -thrill. In other respects the film shows a young fellow engaged \ in various sports, with which he be

comes uninterested when the call to arms arises, then he follows rifle I training, and qualifies tor enlistment,

and thence onward the spectator is taken through the embarkation for the front., life in Egypt, the lauding at Gallipoli, the fighting which there took place, including the charging of Turkish trenches, firing on the wounded and the Red Cross, retribution, and a safe return home. This specialty is well worth seeing. The balanco of the films will bo of entertaining variety. The whole of the net proceeds wili go to the Red Cross

Fund.
