GENERAL NEWS.

Aa fateresting Publication. "The Ko Chaag. Er and His Friends," by Aribor Sowerby (Tientsin Press), is a short story for children, which the author talls urin a foreword was thought oat by him thirty years ago in order to amuse his own children. As it has proved a consistent favourite is hie domestic circle, he has been indused to make

&

wider appeal. The story should (prove popular with the young, as it possesses a picta. resque plot and is related in simple language and with certain whimsical humour, In addition, it gives an insight into natural history and can, therefore be commended from the educa? tional standpoint. The book is adorned with admirable illustra. tions, the work of Mr. Fa Et Pei.

Back to the Cave-Men. The forthcoming opening of two underground theatres in Paris may be regarded as the first man." ifestation of

those post-wAX architectural changes which are bound to come about as the result of aerial warfare. However, the ase of aircraft and the bombing of open cities may be begged round by international agreements,/. Esgue conventions, and the like, most sensible people will probably will form a better protection then scraps of paper. It is unlikely that we shall again become trog lodytes, bat the construction of underground shelters, under- ground theatres, and other placee of assembly, and the construction of railways in tunnels, wherever practicable, seems a "certain de- velopment.

The reply of the Law Officers is embodied in s formal esmmunication the termas of which have not yet been made public, but I am able to say definitely that the highest legel opinion is that women are in- eligible. It is expected that the Labour Party will take steps to introdaea a bill legalising the elaction of women to the House; Miss Mary MacArthur and Miss Nina Boyle are candidates, and Mrs. Philip Snowden and Miss Margaret Bond field are prospec- tive candidates,--Árahi,

Mr. G. H. Roberts, M.P., Minie- ter of Labour, speaking at ́& demonstration of Service Women at Sheffield on June 3, said that while the Government gave & guarantee, which he was there to repest, that they would do everything possible to keep out of the danger zone all girls sad women sent on military service there was bound to be some risk for girls working at the front. The girls in France, however, were in no greater danger in this respect than the girls at home who were subject to German bombing raide.
