THE
THE world of to-day is bad-mannered, morally lax and in art irrational, according to Professor F. J. C. Hearn- shaw, Professor of History at London University.
He told the conference of the Royal Empire Society at Bristol:
There has been a certain relaxation of moral standards--although I think there is a tendency now to return to Ranity in that matter--and with that relaxation a certain worsening of manners.

STRÁVINSKY AND EPSTEIN
"Another feature of this moral and spiritual bewilderment is the development of the cult of the irrational. Bax and Stravinsky have gone too far. They are definitely and positively ugly, and Epstein and some of the surrealists are definitely obscene.
Another feature of the post-war world, he said, was the passion for planning, which tended to reduce human liberty to a minimum.

ERIC LYE, commercial artist from London, was always the
life and soul of the party.
At a party in the third-floor apartment of Mrs. Cynthia Wei- mer, thirty-five-year-old divorcee, here last night, several rounds of drinks had been served and one of the guests had balanced a full glass on his forehead.

For dinner start off with plenty of celery. Ent the leaves, too. If you can cat spring onions without dis- comfort to others, have few.
Meat Not Barred
Jellied soup is very refreshing. A quarter of a head of lettuce, endive, or watercress, and tomato salad.
