Cortain amours circulated and repeated by disposed person inimical to the character of the Carnival Queen of the Voluntary Hospital Carnival of 1931 have. reached our bars which rumours. we have investigatod and found to be wholly unjustified' and with- out the foundation of truth..

These rumours have not only caused pain and distress to the young lady in question, her fa- mily and friend, but done damg' age to the cause of the Southend-

Voluntary Hospitals Carnival As- sociation and, moreover, they constitute a pernicious and mali-. cious alander"

We bag to protest against and robut the glander in question, and we ask the co-operation of all fais-minded people to assist in bringing to our notice any person who aball in future repeat this ore slander, when the lady in question will take the opportunity of Vindicating her character in open court,
