 Cottin has now served nearly four years of his sentence and, with time allowance for good behavior he should leave jail about 1926.

An election in England is the har- vest time for teachers of eIocution. Many candidates for Parliament have no oratorical powers and have no de- sire to speak upon the floor of the House of Commons. yet it is neces- sary for them to address their con situencies. Therefore they hie them selves to teachers of elocution and take few lessons before they bIos- som out as campaign speakers. Many actors out of work have made con siderable sums during the campaign by coaching candidates.
