Mrs. J. S. Brown, of Southwick (Eng.), has .invented fl white belt, containing a red light which' may claim to possess the magic qualities of the green girdle which Sir Gawavne accepted from the lady of the castle. Wearers of this useful Invention will no longer have to sink into the ditch or hedoe n’t the approach of every car. It will'be possible to walk along a road that is unlighted and unprovided with, footpaths with as little fear as a cyclist who trusts to his rear light. Like all good, inventions, this 'Mrs. Brown belt, which deserves to become as well known as a “Sara Browne” belt, is obvious, slmnie. and inexpensive. • That the general strike of 1926 cost tlie National Union of Railway men £2,237.915 of which £1,822.08(1 represented out-of-work benefit to members, was revealed recently. . .
