GENERAL ITEMS » A Maori boy, who was charged in the Juvenile Court at Wanganui with illtreating a kitten, was ordered to receive six strokes of the birch. It transpired that the lad secured a rope and tied it round the kitten's neck and dragged it about, and then threw it down a bank.

Pipe smoking for girls is approved by Dean J. F.- Johnson, of the New York University, but he advocates the use of clay pipes and a fresh one each day. His attitude is ex- | plained by him as being that if you j turn the academic mind away from its beaten course it is apt to be the most nonsensical mind in the world, and this was the reason he committed himself to hearty approval of pipe smoking for the female sex. The ladies of London are doing it; in fact visitors from abroad say the- fashion is becoming when pearly teeth delicately hold the stem of a jewelled pipe. The Dean stipulates, however, that if women are to smoke pipes he would rather they bought supplies of clays, so that they could use a fresh one daily, as this would be more hygienic, and would also mean that their pipes would become the dirty relics that are so cherished by men. Moreover, there would be a grandmotherly touch about a clay that would b.e absent from even a diamond-studded briar. "I certainly think that a pipe is the most sensible thing a woman can smoke," the Dean continued. "It is least injurious to the health, for she inhales less nicotine."
