MR. JUSTICE EVE
TOO BUSY TO SEE LONDON
LORD HEWART'S JOKE
CHINA MAIL,
More than once Mr. Justice McCardie Torturing Indigestion
las disclaimed knowledge of woman's dothing. A woman witness in an action
relating to furs replied: "Every women knows that Canadian mink is more durable, lighter in weight and wears better, and is super- der in every way to Bussian mink."
That is what every woman ought know," said the judge.
Mr. Justice Ere, who on his own confession, knows very little about to London, is 72, and has been on the Bench in the Chancery Division for 22
years.
Although he is a Londoner born, he says that he has never

To he ignorant of matters theatrical is the official pose of the Bench. In has lately claimed that his ignorance is his particular case Mr. Justice Rowlett genuine. Be said: "I dare not say how little I know about films because it will attract attention. There are few people with less knowledge of the drama than have-especially film
drama."
Mr. Justica Rowlatt, too, is one of the judges who have never made a bet. He once said in court: "I have nover

hetted myself, but I believed most respectable people make a smal! bet sometimes."
Why has so ennent a citizen such scanty acquaintance with the great public institutions of his birthplace? One who knows hint intimately told the "Evening News" the secret of it.
"Mr. Justice Eve, like the curate in The Frivate Secretary," says: 'I don't like London," but it is not disinclina- It is not unknown for judges to state, tion to explore Eandon that accounts when licensed premises are mentioned, for his lack of knowledge of the capi-that they have personal knowledge of tal.

"He meant to succeed, and he studied
He was probably objecting to the use ofe siang tern, but when Mr. Justice Merkinnon confessed that he was a ignorant as was a witness before him of the signification of the initials "OK." he appeared to be quite sincere. And so was Mr. Justice Shearman
at home after his wort: in chambers and when he said: "I really know nothing the courts. He was M.P. for Ashbur-about-tin kettles," for he had begun his ton from 1904 to 1907, and in thai sentence with "I don't like to pretend period I have frequently seen a cut judicial ignorance," standing outside the courts ready in rush him down to the House as soon as he could leave a case
Work-and More Work
"He has been known to take papers to the House of Commons and carry on with them in a Yeam there while he waited fer the division bell to ring.
"It was in 1907 that he was inade a judge, and since then his outside life has been practically confined to the
journeys hetween the courts and his house nod occasional visits to his clubs, except for his holidays. when he hurries away from London.
a
"You must not suppose. that judge's work is finished for the day when the court rises. I have known Mr. Justice Eve te be occupied day after day in his room until 7 p.m. or later. And if he does not stay at the courts he takes docaments home work at them after dinner,
"So you see he has had little chance to go around and visit London's in- stitutions. I do not think he lus any hobbies or recreations. He does nut even play golf.
to
"But, in hi Jack of knowledge of London's celebrated features, he is not alone.
"Many Londoners know legs of them than people from the other ends of the earth who come here for a few weeks' visit. Londoners take their institu- tions for granted and let it go at that.
"They are very incurious people as far as their own possessions are con-.. carned and Mr. Justice Eve is one of them."
A tradition of the Bench also lays it down that judge is not supposed to know the meaning of alang or even. colloquis terms.
The Lord Chief Justice (Lord Hewart), was upholding this tradition when he said the other day, as be pre- sided over his Court: "When I sit here I am not supposed to know what 'turned up' means."
He had just been told by counse! that two individuals had turned up" at a meeting.
An adjournment being asked for over Derby Day, Lord Hewart solemn ly asked "What is the Derby?" But it was in a spirit of mischief.
When, in an appeal case, two of his Judicial colleagues seemed bewildered by the words "nap" and "tip," the Lord Chief Justice replied:
"A tip is a tip that a horse may win. A nap is about a horse that is certain to win, and a special map goes to oven greater lengths".
He Did Know That Again, in a case in which the fox trot was mentioned, Lord Hewart, re- marked: "According to the usual pro- ceedings I ought to ask here, What is a fox trot? but I do not think you need trouble to describe it."
to
"And when a document was referred the Magna Charta of a certain religious movement, Lord Hewart ob served quietly, "That name seems to indicate some controversy
among the .barons."
Lord Darling frequently confessed a complete ignorance of golf and golf terms. "I know nothing about golf," he once declared in his court, "I think I am the only judge who doesn't."
A colonel who appeared before Mr. Justice Darling, as he then was, once used the phrase "an absolute wash- out." "I don't know that I ought to understand the meaning of such an ex- pression" remarked his lordship.je
"It is a military expression that a thing is entirely at an end," the colonel told him
In a divorce case Mr. Justice MeCardie asked a witness the meaning of the expression "N.B.G." He was told that soldiers and sailors used it, and it signified 'no good."
Other questions from the Bench at tributed to Mr. Justice McCardie ard- What is a Socialist? What is a bachelor"Is there such a thing as un ordinary woman
But Mr. Justice McCardie ustelly supplies witty definitions of his own, she has for the bachelor: "A man who looks before he loops, and, having looked, does not lean of all”.
It was it a dressmaking care that en ordinary woman" was defined as one who had to be commercially con templated a woman who wore stock

WEEK'S PAPERS IN OVERLAND
CHINA
SPECIAL COLOURED SUPPLEMENT with PICTURES of all local events is given in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS
and all the NEWS. The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.
How all sections of the community are trying to co-operate
as far as is possible with the Government in the hour of sore distress is told in the "Overland China Mail" which is full of news, duly illustrated, about the acute shortage of water in the Colony and about the steps taken to obtain supplies from sources hitherto unthought of.
How Hong Kong is "making rain" will prove very interesting to former residents, friends and relatives in other parts of the world. The "Overland" describes the
process.
As umal, the "Overland" contains all the local and China news of the week. Although the summer is considered the "dull"" season in Hong Kong, this week has been the exception to the rule, providing the "Overland" thereby with abundant useful matter.
Remember, the "Overland" is the only weekly budget of news published in Hong Kong which is illustrated. And
the pioneer art supplement of the Colony (published by the daily "Chua Mail) is given away free with the "Overland." Make sure you get this week's issue now.
