During the hearing of a case at the Magistrate’s Court, Christchurch, Mr. Wyvern Wilson, S.M., protested against women witnesses wearing large hats in the box. He said that such hats obscured the face and it was impossible to note the effect of certain questions upon a witness’s face. A lot could be gathered from a person’s demeanour in the box, and if the face could not be iseen, much which was useful to him m forming his opinion, was lost. The exhibition of Mr. J. M. Schapiro’e art treasures is still on at the Soldier* Club, New Plymouth. Many have heard of the townsman who, having seen a store of honey in a country house, determined he too would keep a bee. Bee-keepers may have an innings at the New Plymouth Horticultural Society’s Show on February 25, in the Coronation Hall. A suitable section is set out for them. Schedules are obtainable :.s advertised. Entries to-morrow (Tuesday), February 21.
