A CHANGED ENGLAND
BABY'S WEIGHT GOES UP. "I was vsry pleased to see the change which has coiiJ.j over England," paid..Mr. Bernard Tripp, of Timaru. who .has just returned from a visit to Europe. "When :T ires'there some eight .vein's ago very low wagCss wl>re being paid, there was a great deal of misery, and a larg? proportion of the people were Jiving from hand to mouth. 'Now all was changed. Everyone seined fairly iviJl off—they.were well fed and well dressed.' Medical men informed me that the average baby of 12 month! in the East End of London was son)} t pounds heavier than it need to be, as a result of the parents and children '(wing better -fed and cared for. Of course there is a great' deal of unrest, btrt'if England can weather the storm in that direction she is going to l}; a stronger nation than ever." Mr. Tripp also said that h|; was informed before leaving England that London was once more the centre of the world's exchange. For a time it looked as though "i'iW. York' was going to hold' that position, but his .information was to the effect that it had reverted to London within the last fevr months.
