"In this race County Cricket was left at least eight lengths and yet managed to cover up ground and was only beaten by half a week, greatest surprise to all those who noticed it."——Bombay Chronicle.
We gather that it was only noticed by a few spectators who happened to be staying on over the week-end.
From a publisher's advertisement of Mr. CHESTERTON'S works:—
"A SHILLING FOR MY THOUGHTS, Fcap. 8vo. 2s. net."
Is "G.K.C." also among the profiteers?
"Private Frank Edwards, Canadian Forces, a native of Berwick, has been presented to the King as the oldest soldier on active service with the B.E.F. He enlisted as a private in the 50's and went right away to fight in France."—Edinbro' Evening News.
We calculate that he is entitled to at least fifty-nine blue chevrons and one red.
