IMPORTANCE FOR DIETARY STUDY
"Heavy" nitrogen was described by I London authority as "a chemical curiosity at the moment." The discovery, he said, may pat nitrogen chemistry back a hundred years and necessitate a fresh start in that branch of science.
Anything his department advised had to conform to certain very definite specifications. The gap caused by absence of transport was

those sixty ways was not just a straight alternative between two

CHILDREN'S GAS MASKS The Aghting Services were fully aware of the difficulties in the way of passive air raid precautions, and they would strain every nerve to give support and leave sufficient men to carry on that very dim- cult job in the event of an attack, Regarding gas masks, he sald that children down to the age of three were able to wear a respira- tor. Below that age one had to supply some sort of pump. Several devices had been made, including a box fitted with a pump, which they found offered no difficulties.
Alternatively, experiments were being made with a kind of long clothing with voluminous skirts and a pump which allowed a mother to have contact with her
child.
"That type of bowling, con- tinued Sir Pelham, "is a destruc- tive factor. If our bowlers will only remember that length is the prime factor in bowling. we have a great chance of beating the Australians next year."
Turning to the matter of doped. wickets, Sir Pelham said: "Some "SHORT NONSENSE”

MYSTIFIED BY
VANISHED EGG
Birds That Deserted No. 10 Garden
|
..Mr. Neville Chamberlain, the Prime Minister. is anxious to solve the "Mystery of the Varished Egg."
He tells the story in "The Coun- tryman:"
"When I first came here (to Downing, Street)," he writes, "in January of 1938, I at once affixed nesting-box to one of the trees in the garden. Nothing happened for a long time, but last March I saw a pair of blue, or perhaps I should say, black tits, for they were a grimy couple, ditting about the branches of a lime tree.
"Shortly afterwards they were dying in and out of the box.
"I did not have time to make. any examination till the week-end after I had become Prime Minister, when on looking Into the box, I found the nest completed And three eggs in it.
"Unfortunately, I saw little more movement, and looking again in Jure found that the
nest was deserted and the three eggs had been reduced to two. Now what is the solution of the mystery of the vanished egg?"
The old garden between Down- ing-street and the Horse Guards' Parade, the Prime Minister states,
"has existed for at least 250 years, and perhaps it retains for that reason some trace of more rural surroundings."
