In the absence of motoring, motoring stories are fashionable. Here are two popular ones. A noble lord, when leaving one, of the official motor-cars, asked the woman driver to come back at a certain hour. She replied: " All right." The noble lord then said: "I am accustomed to being called 'My lord.' " The woman driver replied to that: "And I am'accustomed to being willed ' My lady.' "
The people might learn a lesson in food economy from the King. , After a heavy morning's work visiting hospitals, factories and workshops in three different towns recently, the menu .at luncheon on the royal train consisted only of fillets of fried fish, cold roast beef and dessert. In order that milk supplies may be conserved as much as possible during the winter, the King has given orders that no cream is to be served in any of the royal establishments until further notice. Bread sauce with roast; chicken and brown crumbs with pheasant have been unknown at the royal table for a long timo past. /
