But though I thought I heard a slight
shuffling noise on the stairs. I could
see nothing and did not dare to inves-

monsieur, who by this time was alive

GOOD cau,s. and Poor Tune,


Mr.. Bernard Shaw, who has fallen
foul Of "The Red Flag" which he re-
cards as an air that would ruin any
movement, seems to forget that many
a good cause has been supported by
a poor tune. The Belgian national an
them is a remarkably inane melody
but that did not impair the resistance
Of Liege. And neither the words nor
music of "God Save the King" are
particularly uplifting. The air of
"Lillibullero," that is said to have
whistled James II OF the throne Of
England, cannot have been very dis
tinguished one. for nowadays no
one seems to know what It was. On
the other hand the Russian national
anthem was easily one of the most
stirring examples Of its kind in Eu-
rope, but 1t did not save Russia from
collapse. II the soviets have provided
a substitute for 1t the result would
probably please Mr.. Shaw as little as
"The Red Flag" which he considers
should be rechristened "The Eternal
March of Fried Eel."-Manchester

In a recent lecture Sir Oliver Lodge,
the eminent English scientist, an.
nounced that the earth would prob
ably continue to exist for 10000. 1000
years more. These are. of course,

planet for fully this length Of time.
The dinosaurs are believed to have

What automobile owners don't know about their own cars is a large plenty according to Nit Simms, secretary of state. He says that not one in thou sand knows his engine number, but that what surprises him is that so many don't know their license num- bers. Several times daily, the secre- tary says, license applicants have to go back to their machines in order to learn what their license numbers are, and the very ones who don't know their own numbers are quite particu- lar about getting the same numbers for 1920.
