Mr. Baldwin is to follow in the steps of that great Tory leader. This summer, in June and Jüty, be will address three big Canser- vative meetings at country houses.
The first will be at Himley Hall, which Lord Dudley lent to the Duke and Duchess of Kent for their honeymoon, and the second at Bramham Park, in Yorkshire, the home of his old friend Lord Bingley, formerly Col Lane-Fox.
The third will be held in Essex, at Stanstead Hall, Halstead, The house belongs to Mr. R. A. Butler, Under-Secretary of State for

Doyen of the Court Sir Derek Keppel has left for a cruise to the West Indies. It does not surprise his friends that he has been driven to seek warmer latitudes at this season. He has been a victim of rheumatism for several years, : ̈*:
If I am not mistaken, Sir Derek may now claim to be doyen of the Household officials. He has been associated with the King for 42 years.
From Secretary to Wife Miss Madelle Glazier, Mr. James Maxton's intended bride. has been a member of the ILP for about 13 years. During 11 of these she has been Mr. Maxton's unpaid secretary
Unlike her future husband, Mis Glasler does not shine on the platform. After trying it once she decided then and there that it was not her métier. She is, on the other hand, very much at home when conducting correspon- dence from the secretaries' room at St. Stephen's W
Senior members of the Socialist movement may wonder if Miss Glaster, who is a BSc of London University, is of the family.of old time. Glasters, a relative of Bruce and Katherine- She is not. The name is merely a coincidence.

Choosing Between Brothers The question whether the auc-. cessor to the late Mr. Justice Bateson should come from the Divorce or the Admiralty Bar is now being discussed.
As only about 2 per cent of the cases in the Probate, Admiralty, and Divorce División concern shipping... the Divorce judges should, on the face of it, be in a majority.
But at the time of Mr. Justice Bateson's death exactly the re- verse was the case, both Mr. Justice Bateson and Mr. Justice Langton having formerly been at the Admiralty Bar.
It is rather piquant that the choice now seems to lie between two brothers, Mr. A. T. Bucknil,
of the Admiralty Bar, and Mr. T. Buckmill of the Divorce Bar.
