LIKE OLD SOLDIERS. GROCERS NEVER DIE. LONDON, September 23. “Old grocers never die” chorussed 500 grocers and their wives at an Australian social evening arranged by Australian House in conjunction with the Grocers Association. Yorkshire grocers, perhaps as a compliment to the Australian footballers, who are training at Ilkley, sang a lyric “On Ilkley Moor Baht.” A note in the programme translated “Baht” as “without a hat.” Scottish grocers sang. “A Wee Deoch and Doris.”
