through regular diplomatic channels
he remarked to another diplomat:
"Of all the various occupations I

"Christ and Carrots"
Is Ardent Churchman.
Like Lord Halifax, Sir Stafford is
a great churchman-though of a
different cloth-and up to the time
he joined the Labor party in 1929
when he was said to have out
radicaled the most pronounced La
borite-he worked early and late for
world alliance for promoting in
ternational friendship through the
churches. For his active leader
ship in that work and owing to his
vegetarianism-he is said to live on
raw fruit, vegetables, milk and
cheese-he got the pseudonym OF
Christ and Carrots"
Sir Stafford has been jack of many
trades and remarkably successful at
all. Educated at exclusive Winches-
ter. at the University of London, he
distinguished himself as a student
of chemistry. Still unsettled as to
what he most wanted for his life's
career, he studied law, was called
to the bar from London'S Middle
Temple, later was appointed Kings
counselor and in 1880 was appointed
solicitor general and knighted.
Sir Stafford loves to talk over his
soldering days in France, where he
spent the first II months of the great
war in driving a medical supplies
lorry from the base at Boulogne to
various units at the front. He was
immensely popular with the men and
while doing this was engaged in
providing new slipper for men
suffering from frostbite. His later
war work, until invalided home, was
assistant superintendent of the gov
eminent explosives factory at
Queensbury.
Lord Halifax Honored
BY Divinity School.
Speaking of churchmen, the di-
vinity school of the Pennsylvania
diocese of the Protestant Episcopal
Church has conferred the honorary
degree of doctor of canon law on

Bob Priestley, Brown University

Eagles only two touchdowns.
Thompson's craftsmanship also
set up the ball for Quarterback Len

MANY APARTMENT dwell
ers from coast TO coast have
made up their minds to take it
with lower temperatures indoors
this winter in the cause of fuel
conservation-all hopes and ex-
pectations of landlords for nor
NAL fuel supplies to the contrary.
So-the big question is-how
to keep the heat provided within
the walls of an apartment on
raw chilling days. during periods
of bitter wind. and stretches of
severe winter weather.
Heating engineers point out
that if residents of apartments
heated with gas throughout the
country cooperate with the
management of apartmen t
houses both large and small
(also two-family houses and
private homes in which a suite
of rooms is rented), consider
