EXAMPLE.
In a certain district in East Africa is a Kesident Magistrate. When he is away a doctor acts for him.
Recently each agreed that he had broken the law by riding at night without a light. Both thought that the law would be vindicated if each appeared in court before the other.
The Magistrate sat first and fined the doctor five pounds. When it was the doctor's turn to administer the law, he fined the Magistrate twenty pounds. The Magistrate looked aghast, but the doctor justified his severity by emphasising that an example was needed, siace obviously the offence was becoming a common one; there had been a similar case that very day.
The radio can't replace newspapers. If it says something nice about you, you can't clip it and paste it in an album.
