Asked by counsel how long he thought the average reaction tiriie was, the witness said, “About a fifth of a second.” “Jf you can do it in a fifth of a second and keep on doing it—well, you are pretty good,” remarked his Honor. He told the witness that there was a gentleman in Auckland with a special car fitted up with all sorts of gadgets for testing people'"when they knew they were going to be tested. “He has never got anybody near a fifth of a second yet,” concluded his Honor. “Winnie the Pooh,” series of books at 3/6 and 4/- each, postage extra, 3d. “New Zealand Birds and How to Identify Them,”-by Moncrieff, 7/6, postage 3d.
