members, therefore, on tho front benches
arc ON the floor level. There is strip of
mating about three feet wide running
along the entire front Of each line, and on
this mating the front bench members
stand when they rise to address the House.
1t is out of order for speaking member to
put his feet in front of that mating. He
must thus keep himself fairly close to his

time when every gentleman Of Parliament,
civilian not, wore sword by his side.

The Memory Of
Guy FaWkeS

The Gunpowder Plot to blow up the
Houses of Parliament has left its legacy
not only in the celebration Of Guy Fawkes
Day on November 5, but also in the formal
searching of the vaults of the Houses of
Parliament on the day preceding the open
ing of any session. The chief of police,
with a guard, formally, but systematically,
goes through all the underground cham
bcrs connected with the Parliament build
ings, and reports his discoveries, or the
lack Of them, TO the Speaker.
The most remarkable inheritance, per-
haps, in all the procedure of the British
Parliament is one which comes down from
the time when the Norman kings ruled
over the country, which they had CON
Qucrod, with its mixed population. The
Norman French language was then cstab-
Nshed as the official medium. The King, Of
course was punctiiious in his use of it.
and tho most noteworthy example was when
by his own tongue he gave assent to the
legislation framed by Parliament. It is
part OF the British Constitution that the
King should still give his formal assent
to bills which have been carried. He does
