Early-rising resolutions are easily forgotten on a Dunlopillo 'Deep-Six' Mattress. The simply per- fect comfort of it-all the softness of a feather- bed without its cloying cling and envelopment- the completely uniform support the absence of any tendency to sag or develop hump or hollow- its entire dustlessness-these are some of the unique features of the most restful and hygienic mattress in the world.

What will become of the unwanted Atlantic Blue Ri- band Trophy, a £500 4-feet. high ornate mass of heavily gilt silver, onyx and enamel?

The Cunard White Star- Line will not accept it, even if it is ever offered to the Queen Mary.

This is the strangest trophy in the world.

After ninety years' fierce com- petition between the greyhounds of the North Atlantic for a mythical blue riband or pennant, Mr. H. K. Ilales, original "Card" of Arnold Bennett's novel, thought it a good idea to prosent a Blue, Riband Trophy.

ITALY ACCEPTED

France, then planning the mandie, ought that Mr. Hales was instituting a trophy with the real in- tention of commemorating the forth- coming triumph of the Queen Mary, Cunard White Star Line, however, did, not like the idea.

Trophy plan languisher until Mr. Einles, offering the idea to Italy, was surprised and gratified to have a favourable reply in Mussolini's own handwriting.

Elaboral presentation ceremony was arranged for Genoa; Mr. Hales was feted; warships fred salvors; Mussolini presented to Mr. Holes & melal.

But the trophy.

Based on heavy onyx, figures of Victory rising from the seated figures of Neptune and Amphitrite and bear. ing the enamel Blue Ribands higher still outline of the globe, gures symbolical of speed, Columbus-day ships, modern liners, route from Fastnet to New York, pictures of steamers Great Western, Mauretania, Rex, Normandic, and Mr. Hales-

Look so long to make that before the presentation could be made the Blue Riband had been wrested from Italy's

of what happens to the trophy does The French Line, consulted by not arise officially, but Mr. Hales, Mr. Hales in his dilemma, good now in India, knew before his de- humouredly agreed to accept the parture that the Cunard White Star trophy three months after Rs presen-Line would not accept the trophy.
