MOTLEY NOTES: Dear Jezebel

... MOTLEY NOTES. By ALAN KEMP. Dear J ezebel.

SONG AND DANCE.*

... ir SONO AND^^ance?^ V. By LESLEY MERRILL. JAKE DURAND bustled off the stage of the Musidora Theatre, Bowlden, and clattered briskly down the steps that led to the stage-door. It hadn't been a bad rehearsal. If it wasn't for the Heigh-Ho Two, he'd have had quite a good show to manage.

... there 's a catch in it In order to cultivate more land, we have abolished hundreds of miles of hedges. Now, without hedges certain birds, such as warblers, finches, wagtails and lapwings, cannot nest-- or, at all events, being conservative, they will not nest, and leave the district in disgust.
