EVERY NIGHT AT HALF-PAST NINE

... EVERY NIGHT AT HALF -PAST NINE. By JOHN CLARKE. SO soon after leaving India, the whole thing seemed a little ridiculous. Ten days before, he had been muscling his way, or his right to a way, along Chowrhingee, Calcutta's main street. Now he walked along an English lane and had for company only the evening noises that insects and birds make and the scrunch of his mosquito boots on the loose top ...

MOTLEY NOTES: Mightier Yet

... MOTLEY NOTES. By ALAN KEMP. Mightier Yet. When I still lisped at my mother's knee there was published a book which made a considerable stir in Suburbia and environs. It was called The Mighty Atom, by Miss Marie Corelli. I am afraid that neither then nor since have I read it; you, educated and refined reader, may be more fortunate. Miss Corelli, in her day, had a reputation for being daring. ...

... By JOYCE DENNYS. MY DEAR ROBERT-- I have now had a letter to say that They say They think They want to do my play after all. It is very exhausting having my hopes dashed up and down like this, but I suppose it can't be helped. The awful thing is that I have got to go to London to see Them, and the very thought fills me with dread. Even in the piping days of peace I never could find my way ...

... 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. In the absence of these birds, innumerable insects, injurious to agriculture, enjoy an unaccustomed ...

... By JOYCE DENNYS. MY DEAR ROBERT-- I have been to London and come back again! Like all adventures which one thinks about a lot beforehand, it turned out to be quite different from everything I had imagined. To begin with, I got a seat in the train and spent the whole journey talking politics to a Corporal in the R.A.F. He kept on saying, You people of the Leisured Class, which made me feel ...
