Darwin, Australia, seems to be al­ ways in trouble with its white antsf Telegraph linesmen investigating a- breakdown found that ants had eaten their way through an inch of earthen­ ware and a generous coating of ar­ senic and vaseline, pierced a lead cable a quarter of an inch thick, eaten the- insulation off the wires, and shirt-cir­ cuited them. Remember reading about a dog in New York which was arrested and charged with murdering a boy by dragging him under the water while he was swimming, the dog being sen­ tenced to two years’ imprisonment? The dog has been released after serv­ ing just half of its sentence, on the grounds of good behaviour. In the good old days the man who saved money was a miser. Now he’s- a wonder.
