Dur- ing the pret-couple of months, we have noticed at least 200. kids of from 12 to'17 practising, on various | corner lots and vacant fields, the recondite art of heaving and catch- ing forward passes.

Ghastly Relic Of "Bonnie Earl" . Speaking in 'Radio Newsreel, Keeper of "the Records of Scotland, described some of the exhibits at the Royal Stuart Exhibition in Edinburgh: 'It is a wonderful. collection of miscellaneous rarities, including pie- jewels, coins, weapons, books, toys, and relics of all sorts. The lenders include His Majesty the King, the Duke of Buccleuch, the Marquess of Bute, and many others, and the range of selection is very wide, al- most too wide. ~~ "A very large number are asso- | ciated with the uncrowned Stuarts, Prince James Francis Edward, and Prince Charles Edward, and with the risings of 1715 and 1745. Other exhibits include fine postraits of King James IV, V, and VI, a sitver casket which containe the notori- oy casket letters, used to imeri- minate Mary Queen of $cots, and a handsome draughts and backgam- mon board which she is sal ' Ave fiiven Mary Setoh--one ¢ H "Four I [= arys." \ think - the. most memorable. things: in the exhibition are amo: those bnly remotely connected wih the Stuarts. One is the sword said to have been given by King Robert Bruce to the "Good 8ir James. 'Douglas': another is the Seton Armorial--a- book of hahd-colored goats of arms, containing --slso-- snd queens, dating from the late sixteenth century. This has never been shown in public before. 'Nor has one rather horrible relic ~ the oblong portrait of James Stuart, the Bonnie Earl of Murray, painted after his murder In 1592 as a memorial and incentive to re- venge, and incribed: "God revenge my cause." This portrait shows the Bonnie Earl life-size; full length, practically naked and covered with wounds, with his castle Donibristle blazing in the background.

These students were dressed up to represent the various types: of river rogues and thieves. who flour-: ished in_ the eighteen century. They. had a slang of their own, in those days, and the names of their nefarious professions were: as pic- turesquely villainous as their ap- pearance: 'night-plunderers,' for in- stance, and 'mud-larks' who prowled about at low water pretending to- be beachcombers, but ready to re: " 'geive goods, dropped over the sides of the ships; and then- there were the 'scuffle hunters," whose methods were to start a fight on the quay- side to divert attention from the sneak-thieving that was going on. These and other villains, such as . the long-aproned men whose clothes were full of special pockets for smuggling the stuff away, were dressed in the costumes of their time, in three-cornered hats, or stocking caps, in loose, calf-length * trousers, or breaches and stockings, with cutlasses at their belts, and they passed up the river in convoy, followed closgly by the colorful his- the Thames Police. First came a row-boat with two rowers and a surygyor--that was .the beginning of the police force. They carried staves and cutlasses, and pistols were part of the-boat's _ equipment. By 1810, almost the only "tory in pageant form, as it were, of alteration - was, that. blunderbusses ~ had been issued to the crew. The 1850 police boat had a lug sail and by. that time the crew had developed a uniform headgear. . The first steam-launch was intro- duced in -1885, with one little fun- nel and lamps not much brighter than eandles. . _.. . : The latest boat received.-by the division has two-way wireless, which is on the same networ as the pa- trolling police cars, special appar- atus for use with artificial respira- tion, new types of stretchers fdr for dragging the river, and an engine giving fourteen knots. Nowadays, there are 198 river olicemen, all told, recruited from and policemen with a special knowl- edge of ships and boats. Day and night, a patrol of eleyen launches keeps watch on a thirty-mile stretch of the Thames. Why the Door Has No Handle Best known painting by the fa- mous English artist, Holman Hunt, is "The Light of the World," which shows Ohrist standing in a g¥rderi at midnight. ' He is holding a lantern in His, left han' and His right hand is knocking on a heavily-panelled door. An art critic who was present when the picture was unveiled ap- proached Hunt and said: "Excuse me, Mr. Hunt, but surely you "haven't finished the picture? That 'door has no handle."
