LAWN BOWLS LEAGUE.·
"DOUBLES" FOR CRAIGENGOWER, RECREIO AND BOWLING GREEN.
KOWLOON DOCK LOSE AT KING'S PARK.
ELECTRICIANS SCORE A POSSIBLE.
Home teams in the senior division of the lawn bowle League were all victorious on Saturday. Visitors were more successful-in- the junior division, and only Taikoo failed to be in the parade. They were beaten by the Electricians at North Point, the match producing eight shots in one bead for the home rink led by W. B. Muskett. A possible occurred only once last season, the honour · being secured by R., Basa (C.C.C.) agaimt J. Ferguson (T.R.C.) in the senior division.
Among the many surprises were the defeat of Kowloon Dock and Kowloon (.0. juniors by the two Recreio teams, the winners gaining their first points of the season. Craigengawer juniors and the Electricians also upset caloulations. Civil Service and the Folice each want down by three shots, and by a coincidence the total scores were the same, 61-58 for the home, teams. C.C. seniors lost by failing badly in two rinks.

CORONER AND EMERGENCY MEASURES

Mr. Ellen Adams, headmistress of the Gifford Street School, Islington, gave evidence at Islington inquest on Violet Agnes Tummona, agtd nine, of Bemerton Street, Holloway, a scholar at the school, who died from heart failure due to pleurisy and pneumonia.
Mrs. Adams said that the child' was taken ill and she let her sleep for a while, and then sent her home with her sister.

Sir Walter Schroder, recording a "Death from natural verdiet" of causes," said
"It does occur to me that where children are ill in school, especially where they are supposed to have done something which bas upset them, it would be wise for medical aid to be summoned, I appreciate in this case that the headmistress it is not uncommon for children to was in a difficult position, because

Miss Shaw stated that at 7.15 in the evening she was called by a maid, and found Miss Paine in bed, deeply unconscipus.and with dilated pupils, in her room at the nurses'. home. She appeared as if she had gone to bed in the normal way.

Dramatic Story.
A dramatic account of the fight to save Miss Paine's life was given by Dr. William George Bendle, medical superintendent of Paddington In- firmary, who said that he thought her a particularly reliable and, good
nurse.
Dr. Scott then read the leter as follows:-
I wish that my sister should" have the few things I possess things in remembrance from a paradise lost; things which have been more human to me, and the only real things of my own here in this stony waste of a world.. I cannot bear life any longer. I knew that this mad longing of mine to finish my own existence would overwhelm me at last.
I do wish I had never taken up nursing. It kills all the beauty in life and it opens one's eyes to the cruelties of life. By training to be a nurse one enters a fight which no human being would be able to accomplish.
