Mil- bum Co., Limited^ Toronto, Ont To Advertising Agents’ Copy Mr. Justice Astbury, After Four-Day Hearing, Definitely Decided in Favor of Advertiser Against Agency Which Claimed Ownership "London.—A case of great import­ ance to advertisers, advertising agents, and publishers has just been heard in the chancery division of the1 High Court of Justice- It concerned! the point, which apparently had not! been raised before in British law, | whether copyright in an advertise- j ment prepared by an advertising, agency remained the property of the’ agency or' was tho property of its client, the advertiser. I The case in question was complicat- ■ ed and somewhat obscure, but the final decision of Mr, Justice Astbury,'! after’ a four-days’ hearing, was defi-; lately in favor the client and. against the agent, who had brought the action in the endeavor to obtain an injunction restraining both the advertiser and one of the London newspapers from using an advertise­ ment the agent claimed to have pre­ pared. The agent had prepared an adver­ tisement which his client had inserted in one of the London dailies and on which the agent received his usual commission. Subsequently, the client caused the advertisement to be in­ serted in another paper, acting di­ rectly* and without the services of the agent. At this point the v agent ap­ plied for an injunction prohibiting the further use of the advertisement, on the ground that it was a literary work and as such came within the Copyright Act, under which title would remain in the author, who ap­ peared as plaintiff. , . The decision held that no copy­ right existed so far as the agent was concerned, and that in employing the agent to prepare the advertisement, the advertiser and the agent had, in i Great “Hopper” Plague Over New South Wales London — An “Evening News" dispatch from Sydney says the ap­ proach of a great plague of grass­ hoppers is reported from southern New South Wales.

It further held that the agent’s interest in the adver­ tisement in question only existed so long as the advertiser continued to use the agent’s services. As no con­ tract existed by which the advertiser was bound to continue to use these services, and no copyright as applp- ing to original literary work existed, the agent’s application for an injunc­ tion against both his former client and the newspaper must fail. rIt is assumed that the points of contention in the case can in future be clearly covered in the written agreement between agencies and cli­ ents, but in view of the delicate per­ sonal relations existing between such parties and of the fact that many firms frequently change their, agents, the - prospect is not a very pleasant one for the agencies- aia day; Duchess Honors Irish Guards and St. Patrick TO-and after I had taken it I found lief and in a short time got great ■ results.” I Put up only by The T.

Abd el Krim Passes Long Days As Exile Cultivating Garden Ex-Sultan of Riff, Who Led Tribesmen in Revolt, Enjoys Placid Existence/ Abd el Krim, onetime master of the Riff and the man whose hardy moun­ taineer tribesmen reached the very gates of Fez before they were hurled back by the French in one of the flerciest series of engagements since the World War, says "The London Dally Mail," is supporting his banish­ ment at Saint Denis, in the Island of Reunion', in the Indian Ocean, with true Oriental iiatience. “The Sultan of the Riff" took with him only two wives out of his numer­ ous harem. They were his favorites, Fatima and Aicha. His other compan­ ions in exile are his brother, Si Mo­ hammed, and his uncle Abdeslem, his mother and his sisters and the fami­ lies of his brother and his uncle. Dur­ ing the long voyage from Casablanca, the chief port of Morocco, to Reunion, a son was born to him, so that he now has three sons. Abel el Krim’s brother discarded hts Moorish attire as soon as the ship reached Marseilles, but Abd el Krim himself did not adopt European cloth­ ing until he reached Reunion. He is living in a country house rented specially to lodge him, and which has been somewhat hastily dubbed “the Chateau de Maurange.” In reality the house hag nothing of a castle about it, but consists of only a ground floor and a first -floor, with a vegetable gar­ den, an orchard and a meadow ad­ joining. His first care was to furnish his new home as comfortably as possible and set his wives and his family at their ease. When he loft Morocco he know only tho rudiments of tho French language, but Im has set him­ self to study it deeply, and to-day ho speaks it as fluently as his brother, who is renowned as a good French scholar.
