“A police court isn’t all grim and sordid,” remarked Judge White the other day. “Sometimes something really funny happens. Not so very long ago a chauffeur was brought in after having run down a man. “Did you know that if you struck this pedestrian h© would he seriously injured?”* I asked. “Yes, sir,” replied the chauffeur.. “Then, why didn’t you zigzag your car and miss him?” ' “He was zigzagging himself and outguessed me, your honour,” was the answer. * * * * * There are some young men even today who are so old fashioned that they hesitate because there isn’t any mistletoe there.
