Lady Granville, the Queen’s elder sister, has just suffered all the pains and panics of an examinee. At Government House, Douglas, Isle of Man, she sat with many others for the first-aid and nursing class examination. Afterward she remarked 1 to one of her fellow examinees that she believed she had made an awful muddle of the questions. Her fears, however, were belied, by her taking a good place in the list. Lord Granville was thus able to hand her a certificate when he made the prize distribution. Lady Granville’s anxiety is understandtable, for she has got together a first-aid corps in the island of about 600 women. She did so while herself attending classes. ■
