# Privilege sign

A privilege sign is a retail store sign provided by a manufacturer, with the manufacturer's branding on it. The signs may be provided to the store at no cost, in return for the manufacturer's advertising on the sign. Examples include Coca-Cola signs, bar/tavern signage provided by breweries containing that brewery's brand logo above the establishment's name, and painted signs on sides of shops.
Privilege signs are no longer popular with manufacturers or stores in the United States, slowly disappearing from storefronts in that country. However, they remain a common fixture in other countries, such as sari-sari stores in the Philippines, where common sponsors of privilege signs include soft drinks, telecommunications services, soap brands and tobacco.
Similar such signs still appear on independent newsagents in the United Kingdom with Lycamobile and Coca-Cola being among the most prominent of brands to advertise.
# Thomas Boswall Beach

Colonel Thomas Boswall Beach CMG CBE (28 May 1866 – 3 April 1941) was a British Army officer during the South African War and First World War.

## Life

Born at Brompton on 28 May 1866, the elder son of the Rev. Canon W. R. Beach, Chaplain to the Forces, and was educated at Bloxham School (1880–84) and at King's College Hospital, where he gained the Warneford Scholarship and worked under Joseph Lister. He took the M.R.C.S., L.R.C.P. in 1899 and, after serving as house-physician at King's, entered the Army as surgeon in 1891, passing first both into and out of Netley. There he gained the Herbert Prize allotted to the best man of the term and the Montefiore Medal and Prize for Military Surgery. He was the brother of William Henry Beach.

## Military career

Boswall became lieutenant-colonel in 1912, Colonel in 1915, went on half-pay in August, 1919, and retired four months later. He served in the South African War in 1899-1902, when he took part in the advance on Kimberley, including the actions at Belmont, Enslin, Modder River, and Magersfontein; and in operations in the Orange River Colony, including the actions at Paardeberg, Poplar Grove, Driefontein, Vet River, and Zand River; in the Transvaal, in the actions at Pretoria, Johannesburg, and Diamond Hill; and in Cape Colony. He was mentioned in dispatches in 1901, received the Queen's medal with seven clasps and the King's medal with two clasps, and was promoted major. In the war of 1914-18 he was mentioned in dispatches in 1916 and received the C.M.G. in the same year and the C.B.E. in 1918, after serving as A.D.M.S. at Alexandria. He had been a member of the British Medical Association for fifty years.
# Karl Gussow

Karl Gussow (25 February 1843, Havelberg – 27 March 1907, Munich) was a German painter and university professor.

## Life and work

His early inclination to art was encouraged by his family so, as soon as he completed his secondary schooling, he was enrolled at the newly founded Grand-Ducal Saxon Art School, Weimar. This led to studying the Dutch Masters in the studios of the history and genre painter, Arthur von Ramberg. He later worked with the Belgian history painter, Ferdinand Pauwels, who had a decisive influence on his style. In 1867, after leaving Pauwels' studio, he went to Munich to continue his studies with Karl von Piloty, but was there for only a short time before going to Italy, then returning to Weimar.
In 1870, he sent some works to an exhibition in Berlin. This attracted some positive critical attention, which led Count Stanislaus von Kalckreuth, a well known landscape painter, to offer him a professorship at the art school. He was there until 1874, when he accepted a similar position at the Academy of Fine Arts, Karlsruhe. After two years, he moved to the Prussian Academy of Arts. He resigned his position there in 1881, for undisclosed reasons. Two years later, he again went to Munich, where he taught at the Academy of Fine Arts, and established special classes for women, who could not be admitted to the academy at that time.
Among his students were Max Klinger, Hermann Prell, Carl von Marr, Adolf Rettelbusch, Ottilie Roederstein, Anna Gerresheim, and Clara von Rappard.
In style, he was a Realist. Anton von Werner, the Director of the Berlin Academy, said that "the exact reproduction of nature" was Gussow's ideal. He used specially designed brushes that enabled him to create more complex glazes. That type of brush is now known as the "Gussow-Pinsel".

# Leslie Warren

Captain Leslie Reginald Warren DFC (born 21 January 1899, date of death unknown) was a British flying ace in the First World War who was credited with eight aerial victories.

## Biography

Warren was born in Colony of Natal, to English parents. Biographical sources indicate that his father was Reginald C. Warren, a solicitor from Weybridge, Surrey, while his mother, Kathleen M. Warren, was from Hurstpierpoint, Sussex. By 1901, the family were resident in Kensington, London. However, the source of this information appears to be from the 1901 census and close scrutiny of the document shows that he, and his real mother Margaret Amy Warren, were actually recorded as visitors in the household of Reginald and Kathleen Warren, who were his aunt and uncle. Warren's father was Bernard William Warren, who had been killed during the Battle of Colenso in 1899.
Warren joined the Royal Navy to serve in the Royal Naval Air Service and, on 26 September 1917, was promoted from temporary probationary flight officer to temporary flight sub-lieutenant.
He was posted to No. 6 (Naval) Squadron RNAS, which, on 1 April 1918 following the merging of the Army's Royal Flying Corps (RFC) and the RNAS, became No. 206 Squadron RAF.
Flying an Airco DH.9 two-seater bomber, Warren was credited with his first victory on 3 May 1918, shooting down an Albatros D.V fighter south of Merville, with Lieutenant O'Brien as his observer. On 7 June, he and his observer, Second Lieutenant Penny, shared in the driving down of an enemy aircraft over Bac Saint-Maur with Second Lieutenant C. M. Hyslop and Corporal J. W. Pacey.
Warren was then paired with Lieutenant Leonard Christian as his observer. On 1 July, they sent a Pfalz D.III fighter down in flames over Houthem. On 4 July, Warren was appointed a flight commander with the temporary rank of captain. Early on 29 July, Warren and Christian drove down another D.III over Roulers and sent two more down in flames that evening north of Menen. On 1 August, they accounted for two more between Menen and Wervicq, bringing Warren's total to eight, and Christian's to nine.
Warren was subsequently awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, which was gazetted on 20 September 1918. His citation read:
    Lieutenant (Temporary Captain) Leslie Reginald Warren (late R.N.A.S.).
       "This officer has taken part in forty-six successful raids, fourteen of which he has led. In these operations his formation has only suffered one casualty. This remarkable immunity has been in the main due to his brilliant and skilful leadership; he combines keenness and determination with sound, clear judgment. In addition to raids, he has taken many area photographs, and carried out five long-distance reconnaissances, rendering valuable reports."
Warren was eventually transferred to the RAF's unemployed list on 11 March 1919.

# Ping the Elastic Man

Ping the Elastic Man (also named Here Comes Ping the Elastic Man) was a British comic strip that appeared in The Beano from 1938 to 1940. The comic was about a boy who could stretch his limbs as if they were made of elastic. It was created by Hugh McNeill.

## Background

Hugh McNeill responded to R. D. Low's newspaper ad hoping to be hired as a new artist for a developing comic. After samples of his work were sent to the Kayebon Press advertising agency, Low saw McNeill's potential and hired him immediately. The story of Ping was developed and McNeill began designing for the series, which was published in the first issue of The Beano.
In the early stages of development, Ping was called Indy and the strip was called "Indy the Rubber Man". McNeill's work allowed him to create other comic strips, most notably Pansy Potter.

## Common strips

Ping varied from being helpful to being too cocky for his own good. In the first issue, his boasting leads to people in the area playing with his limbs and dragging him out of shape. In another story, he uses his elastic arm to catch a vandal trying to break his elderly friend's fence.

## Declining appearances

McNeill would depart in the 1940s to join the Second World War. The comic was quietly discontinued after he left, although, like many Beano comic strips, Ping had Blitz-themed strips either encouraging the young readers to help the grown-ups, or mocking Nazis.

## Cameos

After an absence of several decades, he met Minnie the Minx in issue 3185, a special 65th Anniversary issue. His head and neck also appeared in the inner cover of the 2019 Beano Annual with 254 other characters.
