F. D. ROOSEVELT
A frend who has just returned from the United States called re- cently on the Roosevelts at their Hyde Park Estate in the Dutchess. County of New York, writes the London Diarist of the "Evening Standard." The President was away on a fishing trip, and "the visitor was entertained by `Mira Bara Delano Roosevelt, the Pre- sident's octogenarian mother. As his eye took in the charming vista, my friend remarked what a task it must be for the Prezident to run both this United States and a private estate like this. "Tula place!" said the old lady. Frank- lin doesn't run this place. He doesn't understand and fever ham · understood anything about nhan- ce."

Sweetmeat Factory Worker Recovers Lost Ring

The manageress of the sweetshop communicated with the sweetmeat manufacturers in Beckenham, Kent, and it was learned that the ring was the engagement ring of Miss Waring, of Sunnydene-road, S.E.. who lost it at work.
