Oxford stating that a supply of curare
has been stolen.
In an up -country bungalow in West

receives a package of strings for his
cello—he opens the package and a few
minutes later collapses—dead.
The theft of the curare is confessed
by an Oxford student, Branksome, who
hands it over to a Dr. Hawkes,who
believes in deadening pain of animals
used for vivisection.

On the Chairman's left sat the

telligent member of the little group
`on the platform. He was good look-

way, and his keen grey eyes proclaim-

and humour than did those of his
illustrious confreres.
There was nothing especially re -

bers coughed politely behind their
Charge Sheets, looked at each other
as wisely as possible, . and settled
themselves for the business of the
day.
"Thomas Saxby," called Mr, Chest-
erfield, in an urbane voice, and the.
wretched man rose to his feet. once
more in the temporary dock.
The charge—of wilfully murdering
Mollie Crowther—was read out, and
the clerk—seeing the prisoner swal-
lowing in his throat in readiness to
make some exclamation—hastily in-
formed him that this was what was
known as a preliminary investigation
and that there was no need for him
to plead at this stage. The intelli-
gence seemed neither to encourage
nor to depress the a-ccused man, who
nodded and hung hie, arms sheep-
ishly over the wooden rail before
him, turning his olcl cap nervously
roune on round in his fingers. Col-
onel Evesham and Sergeant Perkins
held a whispered colloquy as the re-
sult of which the policeman rose to
his feet, and stammering and clear-
ing his throat nervously said, ad-
dressing the Bench that he did not
think there was any need for him to
make any preliminary speech, but
that he would proceed straight away
to call his witnesses.
The first witness to be called was
Doctor Littlewood, the village practi-
tioner from Shallow. He was the
nearest Doctor to hand when the dead
body of Mollie Crowther had been
.discoverecl he had naturally been
summoned by the Police Constable to
whom the.. prisoner bad reported the
find.
Dr. Littlewood, short, inclined to be
plump—held-heeded — with scanty
grey hair and distinctly seedy -look-
ing black clothes, looked anything
but comfortable as he shuffled into the
temporary witness box. -He :knew the
dead girl, She was about ten years
old. He had treated her occasionally,
"but not for some tinge." He saw the
body of Mollie Crowther lying face
downwards in a ditch by the lane
which led from behind the forge to
the village of Branmsted. He had
made a careful examination by the
light of an electric torch, and again
this morning, and was quite certain
that there were no bruises or other
signs of violence. There had not been,
as yet, any post mortem with sec-
tion, but it would seem that the cause
of death was the administering of
some poison. The symptosis were in -

dicative of some such drug as stry-
chnine, but he could not, of course,
bo certain, on this point until a post
moment and analytical examination
and test had been made. Tightly
grasped in the child's• hands" was -a
bag of sweets.
Sergeant held up a couple of sheets
of glass fixed together by a piece of
passe-partout binding, enclosing a
small paper bag, which the witness
identified. The clerk enquired in dumb
show of the magistrates whether
they would like to see the exhibit,
which was duly passed up for their
inspection. The sweets had been sent
to the County analyst. It was pos-
sible that the child's death had been
the result of eating sweets which
had been in some way, either by t c-
cident or design, impregnated with
poison; but he was not, of course,:at
this stage, in a position to discpss
That.

This concluded the Doctor's evi-
dence.
But just as the Sergeant rose again
from his seat to summon Ernest
Crowther, the dead girl's father, Jack
Shaw, who was holding the little
glass frame with the paper bag in
his- hands, suddenly taddresavt1"-7ru4
"I say, Sergeant, did you examine
this bag?"
The Sergeant reddened.
"Of course, sir. It's just an ordin-
ary confectioner's bag—from Mar-
tin's, at Brightinouth,"
"I know. But did anyone except
yourself handle it between the time
it was taken from Mollie Crow'ther's
hand and placed between these bits
of glass?"
The interest became general now
amongst the members of the Bench
and the general public alike. he
Sergeant emphatically denied that
anyone but himself had touched it..

CHICAGO The American Red
Cross has aimed reinformements ag*
ainst death on the nation's highwaya,
dedcrtbed by Admiral Cary T. Gray-
son, national chairman, as "a nation-
al emergency of year-round dlsaster
proportions,"
As tie annual National Red Cross
convention opened, organizers an-
nounced that rapid expansion of vol-
unteer personnel to give emergency
first aid In motor accident eases was
deemed a major project. Admiral
Grayson pointed to more than 36,000
killed and 105,000 maimed in the
United States, in 1935 as the motivat-
ing force.
Already the Red Cross, since launch-
ing the service six months ago, has
placed 1;000 emergency stations, man-
ned by volunteers, in operation along
dangerous sections of roads and has'.
designated a total of 3,000 stations
for establishment in 30 states -
"Eventually thergl will be 15,000 sta-
tions with first aid workers ready to
give aid in those precious moments—
between the time of the injury and
admission to a hospital," Admiral
Grayson said.
So important was the problem con-
sidered that one whole day of conven-
tion session was set aside for discus-
sion of "emergency first aid on the
highway," under the direction of Ma-
jor Harry F. Evans, chairman of the
Davenport, Iowa, chapter.
CHICAGO—Dr. John J. B. Morgan,
Northwestern University psycho-
logist, commenting on a prediction
that the Dionne quintuplets stood "a
good chance of growing into heart
breakers and old miids," declared
recently there was no scientific basis
for such a statement.
"The quints are too young to be
affected one way or another," he
said. "Their future attitudes toward
the opposite sex will be molded by a
great many factors during their
childhood and adolesence."
The heart breaker prediction was
made by Dr. Donald A. Laird, of
Colgate University, who said the
quints' segregation from little boys
whipe very young might ]Hake them
"man haters."
Dr. Morgan challenged the Col-
gate psychologist's statement that
premature birth tended to make
children.. better looking was also
without scientific foundation.
He had been most careful, even him-
self, only to handle it with gloves on.
"There was nothing on it — in the
way of writing—except the printed
name of the firm?"
"It was a very old bag -looked 'as
if it had been used more than once
—" the Sergeant, fearing some trap,
was doing his best to excuse him-
self. "The paper was all crumpled --
worse than it is now the glass has
flattened it out a bit—and I can't
say any more."

Here's a Man
Who Pit a Dog
The man who bit the dog is no
longer a legend. While a wedding
procession was marching through the.
streets of Beshenevo, Jugoslavia, the
bridegroom -who was the Mayor of
the township, Dusko Chiritch -- in a
frenzy of happiness seized a barking
dog which was accompanying the
party and bit its tail off.
The dog's howls were drowned by
the music of the wedding band, but
the Mayor's act did not go .unnotic-
ed by his critics on the local coun-
cil. The latter declare that local
opinion is so shocked over what is
considered the undignified act of the
Mayor, that it is likely he may be
deposed. The Mayor himself pleads
that high spirits at the prospect of
his marriage, and the number of
toasits his friends had made him
drink, were responsible for his bit-
ing the dog.—South Slav Herald -
In the basement of the home of
Dr. Rexford Guy Tugwell in Washing-
ton, his daughter Marcit and two
other little girls hay opened a dog
laundry, comments the Chicago Daily
News. Their motive, alas, is profit.
What is mare, they are advertising!
They announce that they will wash
medium sized dogs for 36 cents. And
while it is understood and admitted
that they intend to charge extra for
flea powder, they are careful not to
mention this in publicity.
Now, Marcia, is that fair? Is that
honest? How many times have you
(heard your papa say that advertising
at best is but a wasteful charge upon
production? Has he not told you that
advertisers must be forced to tell the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth, on pain of his most
severe displeasure?
And Marcia, another thing. .Have
you not gone about this whole busi-
ness in the wrong way? Socialism,
like charity, begins at home.
In the first place you should not
have to do any of the work yourself.
You, as chief administrator should
just think up rules for washing dogs,
with pleuty of fines and imprison-
ments.
And you should not have to solicit
business. Wouldn't it be much simp-
ler to have your papa get the presi-
dent of the law enforcing all dog own-
ers
wners in your neighborhood to have the
dogs washed at the Tugwell DWA?
Above all, do not use the basement.
That is very horse -and -buggy indeed.
Why not call up a contractor? Order
him to build you a fine new doggery
in the back yard. Never mind the
cost. Papa will pay that. If he didn't
he would be just a selfish old Tory.
Marcia, Marcia, we fear that you're
going wrong.
