FOR GALLANTRY
The Royal National Le Boat In- stitution have awarded 10 medal for gallantry this year.
A gold medal, two silver medals | and four bronze medals were award- sd to me of the same crew-the Ballycotton crew, Co. Cork.
An offlclat of the Institution said: "The service rendered in February bravest and most arduous in the his by the Ballycotton crew is one of the tory of the Institution.
"The crew were called out to the Daunt Rock lightship, which had broken away from her moorings off he Irish coast. When the boat was launched, spray from the terrific sca was reaching to the lantern of the lighthouse, 190ft above sea-level. It was some time before they could ret the boat out, but sheer endurance got them to the aid of the lightship.
"They rescued the crew of eight from the lightship under great dim- culties. That was the greatest ser- vice of the year and one which goes down in the history of the Lifeboat Institution."
Olker medals were awarded to the Penice (Penzance) crew, the Long- hope (Orkneya) crew. and the Fraserburgh (Aberdeen) crew.

What Children Think of Shirley Temple

"Children," he continued, "do not like seeing child artists doing adult scenes. When Shirley Temple makes statements which could only come from the ips of a sophisticated New Yorker, there are some badly brought-up children who would like to do the same thing, but the aver- age child would like to see the child in the picture assisting in a sub- ordinate manner the doings of adults,"
