HUDDERSFIELD.

MR. W. J. VARLEY, Liverpool University archaeologist, started work recently 1.000ft, up on the ridge of Castle Hill. Huddersfield, where he hopes to discover the private life of Queen Cartimandu of the Brigantes.

Rain bent down on the earthworks as Mr. Varley, with his wife and Miss M. U. Owen, wearing waterproof trousers, plotted the sites for digging.

"The Brigantes," said Mr. Varley, "were a hardy race." Queen Cartimandu ruled many; after he had discovered his wife's Brigantes had their own civilisation. love for his own armour-bearer. This, we believe, was one of their miles of the hill country between

RECENTLY a reunion day was held among London's

evacuated families. You might almost call it Fathers' Day, for the great majority of the thousands who left London to visit the towns and villages around were men whose wives and families had left home a week

The trains leaving London's main stations were crowded with fathers, uncles, aunts, big brothers-and- sisters and, sometimes, mothers who had stayed at home when their children went away.

UR JOHN LEIGH, M.P., has trouble with rabbits at Witley Park, his 5,000-acre estate af Godalming, Surrey,
