MARSHALL FOCH'S TRIBUTE TO LORD HAIO.

Sir George Younger, who presided at! the annual dinner of the Fife, Clackman Dan and Kinross Association, narrated an interesting wartime reminiscene of which the feature was a remarkable tribute paid by Marshall Foch to Lord Haig. He had the privilege, he said, of dining in Lon- don in 1915, not long before the Armistice, with "M. Venizelos and a friend. One of the remarks that remained fixed in his mind was made by the friend of M. Veni zelos, who, said to him-"I know that at this moment there is only one army in France, and that is the British Army. That was what Foch said to me yester day," and his informant went on to say, "Foch added there are Generals and Generals, but there is no better General than Haig and I do not exclude, myself,'

SUEZ & STEAITS

It is, as we Scouts say, "good hearing": that Miss Rosaline Masson, whose, recent book, "I Can Remember Robert Louis Stevenson," has been one of the successes of the Autumn, has agreed to write a Life of R.LS. We have long felt that Graham Ballour's Life of his cousin is no longer adequate. An official biography written by a relation is apt to err on the side of reticence. Desides, since the first publication of the Life, in October, 1901, much new information has become avail.THE SS.

They are tolding a "Safety First" week in Glasgow, intended to warn pedes" trians of the dangers of crossing a-street erowded with vehicles. Sir D. M. Steven- so has suggested a change of a rule of the road for vehicular traffic. This re calls a scene at a meeting during the last municipal election campaign. An elector, after a long preamble to the effect that' be could not see why the public, and be bimself in particular should be incon- vianco by new-fangled notions naked the candidate if he was in favour of vehicles travelling on the right side of rood. The candidate said he was. "How are you going to turn the tramcars to suit?" was the retort from some one in the body of the ball. It is almost incredible, but fully balf of the audience, along with the aspirant for municipal honours, could hot reliso that cars are constructed to serve only the left side of the street. In a for minutes the ball was a seething mass of arguing humanity.

A BOOM IN DADMINTON.

Badminton is booming in Scotland, but nine out of every ton people have only the vaguest idea of what Badminton is Most know it is some kind of a game. A number are aware that rackets, shuttle cocks and nets are used. But here their knowledge ends. It would probably sur prise the great majority of those who have never seen Badminton to be assured that it is one of the most
