"TO AVOID SCANDAL"
"Dr. Taylor said that she went to Liverpool to see her husband off in order to avoid any scandal," declared Mr. Justice Tucker. "I think the whole of the circumstances indicate that he was going out to make n Bving for himself, and that he had no intention permanently to abandon his wife."
He then read a letter of March 1 1932, written by Mr. Taylor to his wife. Passages were: "If you wit bearken back to the beginning of 1920, you will perlups recollect that you wrote me a letter saying that you never wanted to see me again.

Mika Elizabeth Isancs, 25-years-old Lencher nt Taleworth Open-Air School, Middlesex, has discovered It-how to make a child go to sleep.

4. Don't have sheets-blankets folled over on one side, so that it is only necessary to tuck in the unfolded site, ore musi condoni- able.
3. Clean the child's teeth be-- fore putting it to bed-many mothers do not consider this necessary for the afternoon nap.
