British and French armed detectives, the "richest

baby in the world" will shortly arrive on the Riviora -namely, the grandson of the Nixam of Hyderabad, one of the greatest of the Indian potentates.

The boy, who is nearly two and a half, is accompanying his mother-the Nizam's daughter- in-law and a daughter of the last Sultan of Turkey-who is travelling from India to France for special medical treatment.

Ileing the eventual heir to throne of Hyderabad, the baby will also be heir to what is claimed to be the greatest fortune in existence-a vast accumulation of gold and pre- elous stones, which legend says is hidden in a modern "Aladdin's Cave" guarded by venomous serpents.

The Nizam is therefore taking the most elaborate precautions to protect his grandson from any danger of Kidnapping while he is away from India. According to some reports 12] British and 12 French detectives have gone to Hyderabad to make detailed plans for the journey.

The value of the fortune, amasy- ed by the Nizam's ancestors, has been estimated at 2380.000.000 the exact amount being probably un-

IFE on the rolling waves may now be enjoyed-without the

roll!

When the Southern Railway steamer Isle of Sark, first Bri- tish ship to be fitted with at stabilising

arrived gear, Jersey, last month, on her first service test, there was not a pale passenger among the 140.

Experienced members of the crew of the isle of Särk reported a lessening of the roll by many degrees.

Passengers walked about the decks with the confidence of travellers on a cross-river ferry.

"Having regard to the sea, it was the most comfortable voyage 1-have ever had," was the comment of a regular passenger.

Not only the passengers, but the engineers were satisfied.

The gear fulled all expeclai tions," said Mr. H. E. Listen, assist- ant mechanical engineer to the South- crn Railway Company.

Part of the secret is fins which can be put outboard in rough weather by hydraulic pumps.

Chaplin's Sons To Go To

CHARLIE CHAPLIN'S two sons-Charles, aged 10, and

Sidney, 9are to go to school in England.

They are now at a military school in California. But their Mother Mrs. Lita Grey Chaplin, said that both she and Charlie wish them to have an English education.

Lita Grey, Charlie's second wife, is playing in English variety..

Before the children are allowed to leave California, both parents must sign a document agreeing to the arrangement.

Just for fun and in view of the fact that a ductor has urged the abolition of turn-ups because they collect dirt, I have been recalling what I have found in my turn-ups at different times. I can remember:
