1978, notice is hereby given that the Adjusted Weighted
Average Sale Price for the sale held on 15 May 1980

METRICS FOR JOHN AND JANE CITIZEN
By James McGill Webb
INDUSTRIAL TRAINING SERVICE—DEPARTMENT OF LABOUR
48 p. 50c

As the name implies this book is written for use by the
layman rather than the technician, the engineer, or the
scientist. This book does not include conversion tables but
rather relates to metric units and their use, comparisons of
size and includes a wide range of metric information. How
big is a litre? What is a kilopascal? When will I use
a centimetre? What will I buy in kilograms? Why is New
Zealand going metric? If these and similar questions are
causing you concern this book will provide the answers.

Milne, R. D. Northey, and W. R. Stephenson of the New
Zealand Department of Scientific and Industrial Research
BULLETIN 213

61 p. $8.50

This report on earthquake microzoning is aimed at dividing
extensive areas of Wellington into smaller zones and is
intended as a guide only to planning of future redevelopment.
The detailed studies of local geology and soil investigations
have resulted in an Earthquake Microzone Map of Wellin-
ton. This map accompanies this publication. This report is
the first one of a series. Later it is the intention to microzone
other areas in the same way.

NATIONAL MUSEUM MONOGRAPHS

Elsdon Best (1856-1931), who was a member of the staff
of the then Dominion Museum from 1911 to 1931, made a
notable contribution to the study of Maori ethnology. After a
lifetime of experience, including many years in close contact
with the Maoris of the Urewera, he spent the last 20 years of
his life writing particularly of the social customs and beliefs of
the Maori people. There is still a demand for the many
monographs written by Elsdon Best and the following titles.
