NOT BITING!

- RINGING THE CHANGES A baripaid in a Sydney hotel was too clevei* for a man who - tried to ring the changes. It was the old dodge of placing five two-shilling pieces on the counter for a half-note in exchange. After chatting casually for a few minutes, he pushed the whole amount across for a £1 note. ■; But the barmaid had been caught before, and by the same man. Calmly she pocketed the whole amount, and challenged him to call the police. But the would-be thief left for parts unknown without delay.
