BELL FOR CUPID
Is Cupid deaf? Officials at Eirias Park, Colwyn Bay, North Wales, think that, he must be, for although they shout loud and long when the time for closing the park gates draws near, young couples in shady nooks very often are too taken up witli the sweet nothings whispered to one another to hear, and as a result some awkward situations have arisen. The parks committee lately decided to solve the problem of bringing Cupid’s attention to the passing of time by installing a suitably-toned bell, which will be heard all over the park, but which, owing to its delicate tone, will not interrupt too rudely any particularly poetical love-making.
