Mischa Elman Plays a Grieg Nocturne
"Nocturne" (Op. 54, No. 4)
This is one of the most deleats, and clusively poetic records that Mischa Elman bu eier made. Even our workaday selves are guided away by the beauty of this "night-piece" until we feel, lite poets, too, for the moment, the full myrtmums mage of the darkness.

The Government has introduced a Bill in the House of Commons to protect the British dye-staffs industry and empower the President of the Board of Trade to exclude foreign dye-stutts unless licensed.
PILFERING AT THE DOCKS.
London, Dec.
The Pilferage Committee of the London Chamber of Commerce) has sent a letter to the Home Secretary requesting him to receive a deputation, emphasising the alarming growth of pilfering cargoes to and from steamers, which has increased two thousand per cent. since 1913, one shipping company lasing a quarter of a million sterling annually. Consequently insurance costs have risen enormously, and the burden ultimately falls on the consumer. A police expert declar- ed that fifty per cant. of the thefts occur before the goods are loaded on the steamers. The latter calls attention to the most serious in- adequacy of the detective patrol and police services of the Fort of London, and urges the establishment of a special force. Drastic steps are imperative to combat the roberries which have assumed a gigantic scale and are the work of organised gangs of thieves and re- ceivery. It concludes that unless the strongest action is taken the thefts will undermine the moral fibre of the nation and the commercial. reputation of the country and business will gradually pass into the hands of other nations.
