"A Court of Justice is not a place of amusement," said Mr. Justice
ROCHE at Manchester Assizes. Mr. Justice DARLING'S rejoinder is eagerly awaited. *** We are informed by "Hints for the Home," that "Salsify may be lifted during the next few days." So may Susan, if you don't watch out. *** So many safes have been stolen from business premises in London that one enterprising man has hit upon the novel idea of putting a notice on his safe, "Not to be Taken Away." *** A sapper of the Royal Engineers who climbed the steeple of a parish church and reached the clock told the local magistrates that he wanted to see the dial. That, of course, is no real excuse in these days of cheap wrist-watches. *** By order of the Local Government Board influenza has been made a notifiable disease. We sincerely hope that this will be a lesson to it. *** |
