ELBOURNE is situated on the River Yarra. five miles from where it enters Port Phillip Bay. and has. with its suburbs. a P9pulation of nearly 1.500.000 people. It is the capital of Victoria and the eighth city of the British Empire. The story of its development forms one of the 'mos~ interesting and romantic chapters of the progress of the Empire.

In 1835. parties organised in Launceston. Tasmania. by John Batman and John Pascoe Fawkner arrived at Port Phillip. and a village was formed on the River Yarra. In September. 1836. a staff of Government officials. under Captain William Lonsdale as police magistrate. was sent to take charge of the settlement. and early in 1837 the site of a township was laid out. , This received from Sir Richard, Bourke. the Governor of New South Wales. the name of "Melbourne." after

Melbourne, who was then Prim~ Minister of Great Britain. The settlement was incorporated as a town on . August 12. 1842. and was created a city by Queen Victoria on June 25. 1847.

The separation of the Port Phillip district from New South Wales . and the creation of an independent·. colony of "Victoria" (the name being in honour of the 'reigning Queen) were sanctioned by the Britidt Parliament in 1850, and the separation took place the following year. Responsible government. with two Houses .of Parliament, was inaugurated for Victoria in 1856.

IMPOSING STREETS AND BUILDINGS. ' The husiness section of the City of Melbourne is approximately a mile in length by' half a mile, in width. and has ' been built upon

the lines originally surveyed. ' Its splendid symmetry is an enduring testimony to the foresight and efficiency of the first surveyors. In this respect it is ,one ' of the best ' laid-out cities of the world. The streets (totalling nearly 200 miles) run at right angles to each other and are wide a~d spacious, with broad and well-paved footpaths. The four principal thoroughfares are Collins. street and Bourke street, lying parallel to each other and ' running east and west, and, intersecting them at right angles, Swanston street and Elizabeth street.

Citizens of Melbourne are justly . proud of the magnificent public parks and gardens, which afford such splendid breathing spaces and playgrounds for the' people. The parks I!np gardens occupy an area of more than 1 ,600 acres. The visit of their Majesties King George V. and Queen Mary 'in 1901 gave ' a special stimulus to action in the direction of further beautifying St. Kilda road. the southern entrance to the city. by which the Royal party entered Melbourne. Since then a continuous systemati(: and progressive policy of beautification has proceeded. II'tsulting in .the provision everywhere of restful spots in settings of delightful enchantment.

MANY MILES OF BEAUTIFUL STREETS. There are miles upon m'iles of glonous- boulevards, spacious in breadth, shad~d by wide-spreading leafy trees and adorned by shrubs,

flowers, and lawns. Ale~andra avenue is a typical example. It leaves the famous and beautiful St. Kilda road at the south end of Prince' s Bridge, which is an impOsing example of bridge architecture, and its smooth surface, ideal for motoring, continues eastward along the charming banks of the River Yarra. 1t pas~es the Botanic Gardens, notable for the extent of their botanical represenfation. It is typical of the many well-designed and imposing thoroughfares to be found in all parts of the city.

Although less "than 100 yeius have elapsed since John Pascoe F awkner laid its foundations, Greater Melbourne to-day covers an . area of more than '250 square miles, houses approximately 1,500,000 people, and is still steadily expanding. It possesses imposing buildings. 'spacious streets, .miles of wide tree-lined boulevards, extensive parks and gardens, excellent hotels, numerous theatres, racing, sports. and other clubs, and more than 5,000 factories, which represent a capital investment ot considerably more than £50,000,000, and turn out products which are estimated to be worth nearly £ 100,000,000 a year.

SECONDARY INDUSTRIES. The prosperity of Victoria, like that of the rest of Aus­

tralia, depends first. upon primary industry; but at the same time secondary industry has been developed to a remarkable extent. .When Federation was effected there were 4,184 fac­tories in Victoria, employing 34,461 persons. There are now more than 8,000 factories, with a yearly output valued at £ 128,000,000, with land, buildings, and plant valued at more than £67,000,000, and paying wages. amounting to £32,000,000 a year. In the last 10 years alone the number of factories has increased by 44 per cent., and the number of persons employed by 31 per cent. Factories in the metropolitan area include woollen mills, knitting mills, boot f.ctories, tanneries, clothinS factories, flour mills, confectionary factories, jam and canned fruit factories, and engineering plants.

THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE is at 35 William street. It was founded in 1851, and ~als essentially with matters relating to trade and commerce, ' ·and with legislation effectin~ those interests. It keeps as free from p~rty. politics as possible. The staff of the Chamber gladly suppbes mforma.· tion to visitors relating to commercial matters.

THE CHAMBER OF MANUFACTURES, at 3·12 Flinders street, was established in 1877 for the protection of manufacturers. It has now a large membership, and finan­cially is very strong. It deals particularly with industrial dis­putes and tariff matters. Officials of the Chamber may be interviewed by visitors during business hours.

THE EMPLOYERS' FEDERATION has an' office at 422 Collins street. It was formed in 1902, and deals chiefly with industrial matters and with legislation affecting industry from the standpoint of employers. .

THE STOCK EXCHANGE is at 428 Little Collins street, between Queen street and William street. It was constituted in 1861, and has a membenhiP limited to 128. The price of a seat is now about £ 1,750. It is fundamentally an investment institution. A substantial amount of trading i. done there every year in an atmosphere of CJuiet decorum­a marked contrast to that of exchan,es in other parts of the world. Non-members are not admItted to watch the pro­ceedings of the exchange.

THE CORN EXCHANGE was founded in 1917, and has operated mainly as a trade organisation. It will be found at 512 Collins street.

Visitors interested in any particulctr industry may inspect, upon application, any of the leading factories. The Government Tourist Bureau, Queen's W illk, will be pleased to make the necessary arrangements ..

Many hours can be spent wan­dering through fern gullies, glass houses, and shady walks, or resting in pleasantly. situated rest-houses or on garden seats. T~e garden is a sanctuary for wild birds of all descriptions, and the lake teems with fish, swans, ducks, and water-fowl.

TRAMWAY BOARD. The tramways system controlled by the Melbourne and

Metropolitan Tramways Board covers 270 track miles. It is estimated that 24,000,000 miles are covered annually by the Board's trams, and 234,000,000 passenger journeys are made. This huge transport system had a very mode;t beginning only 60 years ago, when the Melbourne Omnibus Co. was formed. With the ' introduction of electric transport lines were opened in many suburbs, mostly under municipal control, until, in 1918, the existing Board was created by Act of Parliament. h took control of all the cable tramways in the metropolitan area in 1919, and of the electric tramways in 1920. Mr. A Cameron has been chairman since its inception, and he has six colleagues.

Since its inception the Board has paid about £ 12,000,000 in wages and salaries, and has srnt £ 1,.116,000 in buildin, new rolling stock. The trams 0 Melbourne will be found uniformly clean and comfortable, and the employees, in the main, courteous and willing to assist visitors. Complaints received are investigated by the Board's disciplinary officer.

TheJ30ard builds most of its own trams at its workshops at Preston, where 508 persons are employed. and the wages bill amounts to £2,490 a week.

MOTOR-BUS SERVICES. There are several prescribed motor-bus routes in the

metropolitan area. .... A regular service runs from the Melbourne Public Library, Swanston street, by way of St. Kilda road, Com. mercial road, Malvern road, Orrong road, Clarence street, and Kooyong road, to North road, Brighton. On Saturday afternoons and Sundays these h.uses travel to the Brighton General Cemetery.

A second service starts -at the same place, and travels to Brighton by way of St. Kilda road, Commercial road, Malvern road, Williams road, Hotham road, New street, Park street, to St. Kilda street, Brighton.

Hints HE regulations governing the use of inter­

state motor-vehicles in Victoria are few and simple, and are calculated to give visiting motorists the least possible trouble . To facilitate their observance al,ld to prevent vexatious delays, motorists are advised:-

( 1) To make certain that motor registration and driver's licence are ct,!rrent. Carry both for production to the police when making application for a visitor's pass . I f these documents are not carried the journey may be delayed while the police telegraph for confirma­tion to the motor registration branch of the State in which the vehicle is registered.

(2) Report to the nearest police station after crossing the border of Victoria, when a visitor's pass will be issued. ~

(3) This pass, for which no charge is made, should be carried by the driver throughout the visit.

Pamphlets dealing with traffic regulations in Mel­bourne may be had on application to the Town Clerk, T own Hall, Swanston street. There are no complicated rules, and visiting motorists will · find the police helpful. Obey implicitly the police pointsman's signals and no trouble should be experienced. At some street inter­sections traffic signals in the form of coloured lights are used. Green indicates "Proceed;" amber or yellow, "Prepare to start or prepare to st-op;" and red, "Stop."

Parking is permitted in certain streets at a fee of 1 / per day, which will be collected by a City Council official. Good garages are also available in the city at nominal rates.

"JAY-WALKING." "Jay walking,"- i.e., walking across it. street diagonally,

and crossing intersections against the traffic is an offence under the City Council by-laws. Streets must be crossed at right angles to the footpath. At intersections where there are automatic traffic signals, pedestrians should be careful to cross only when the green "go" light is showing. It is also an offence to walk on the right-hand side of footpaths. In many of the principal streets, white lines are painted along ·the middle of the foot~aths to divide the two streams of pedestrian traffic. KEEP TO THE LEFT!

t4.rgus" Guide to Me

Facilities for S a port. Melbourne occupies a distinguished

posItIon. It is well equipped with berthage accommodation for all vessels trading to and around Australia. Vessels drawing up to 32 feet of water can safely enter Port Phillip Heads. and find ample berthage at even greater depth at the piers. There are three

piers at Port Melbourne with depths of water alongside running from 27 feet to 37 feet. and three at Williamstown with depths alongside running from 28 feet to 34 feet. The extensive wharves on the River Yarra can be used by vessels drawing up to 26 feet of water. while the roomy waters of Victoria Dock are freely used by ships drawing up to 27 feet.

. PRINCE'S PIER. constructed by the Melbourne Harbour Trust at a cost. including the approaches. of £ 195.3.50. is 1902 feet in length and 186 feet wide. It provides four berths. available for the largest and deepest draught vessels visiting this port. Two steel shelter sheds. built on a platform in the centre of the pier. contain office accommodation for the Customs Department and shipping companies. and waiting rooms for passengers.

STATION PIER.-This is another modern pier. built on similar lines to the Prince' spier. and nearer the railway station and tram terminus.

TOWN PIER.-It is seldom used by passenger liners except in the event of congestion in the port.

A frequent service of electric trains operates from the Port Melbourne railway station to the city. A regular tramway service operates from a point adjacent to the Railway pier. Taxi-cabs are also available.

WILLIAMSTOWN.-The Gellibrand. Break­water. and Nelson piers provide adequate accommodation for the largest vessels. and are always exceptionally busy with cargo vessels. Railway facilities are provided at each pier. Take train to Williamstown Pier.

Melbourne University. (Airspy Reg'd.) The

HE U!liversity of Melbourne was founded by Act of Council in January. 1853. but did not come into active operation until two years later. when 16 students commenced the course for the degree of Bachelor of Arts under three professors who had been brought from Great Britain. Schools of

Law. Engineering. and Medicine were established during the next seven years. In 1881 women were first admitted to University courses. and ten years later the staff consisted of 1 3 professors and 1 3 lecturers. who gave instruction to about 400 students. Science courses. as distinct from Arts. were initiated in 1887. and a Conservatorium of Music was founded in 1894. In recent years the Australian College of Dentistry has been affiliated with the University. and Schools of Agriculture. Veterinary Science. Archi­tecture. and Commerce have been instituted. The Uni-

University of Melbourne versity now has more than 3.000 students. and also gives correspondence tuition. Its staff consists of 24 professors. five associate-professors. and about 140 lecturers. demon­strators. and tutors. The grounds devoted to University purposes comprise a block of 100 acres. the northern half of which is occupied by the affiliated denominational colleges-Trinity (Church of England). opened in 1872; Ormond (Presbyterian). 1881; Queen's (Wesleyan). 1888; and Newman (Roman Catholic). 1918. The southern portion of the block belongs to the University proper, the main entrance to which is in Grattan street. At the head of the drive leading from the main gates the visitor will find the original University building erected in 1854-6. and now devoted mainly to administrative offices and library. Close by is the sta~ely Wilson Hall. erected from funds provided by the late Sir Samuel Wilson more than 50 years ago, and used for ceremonial purposes. West of the cld main building lies the new Arts block. the

Page 36

foundation stone of which was laid in 1921, and to the north are the Natural Philosophy School, the clubhouse of the University Union, and the Union dining-rooms. Surrounding the central group of buildings, on the west, are the houses of the resident professors, the Conservatorium of Music, and the Agriculture and Botany schools; to the north. professors' residences, the sports ground. and. the Zoology department; and to the east. the Chemistry de­partment. "the Medical school, with its various branches. and the schools of Architecture. Geology, Metallurgy. and Engineering.

The Teachers' Training College, which is under the direct control of the Educational Department. although affiliated with the University, stands i~ separate grounds at the south-east corner of the block. Inspection of the Uni­versity grounds, colleges, and buildings may be arranged on application to the registrar (T d. F3161).

Educational Institutions MELBOURNE WORKING MEN'S

COLLEGE. HE Working Men's College was founded

in 1887 through the generosity and vision of the late Francis Ormond. The founder's desire was to help those anxious to help themselves. It is estimated that more than 140,000 students have passed through the College. The College consists of 11 blocks

of buildings covering an area of approximately 2* acres, while another acre of ground has been reserved for future building extensions. The buildings are ' situated in Bowen street, running from Latrobe street to Franklin street.

About 4,000 students enrol annually, of whom about half engage in the study of some Trade Course. such as applied ,!rt, science. engineering, mining. WQol sorting and classing, and commercial training, and almost all trades. The College has 97 full-time instructors and 91 part-time instructors. and an administrative and general staff of 46 members. It is controlled by 'a council of 22 members. who are the Directors of the College, which has been in­corporated as a Company.
