BREEZY BOGNOR LOOKS FOR RECORD HOLIDAY SEASON Place Where King is Recup- erating Has "Finest Climate : in England" Bognor will have a record holiday season this year, That much was cer- tain from the moment it was decided that the King should go to Craigwell House, Bognor, in search of halth, Bognor is the most westerly of the Sussex coast resorts, and one of the rettiest, - No better Place could be imagined for an invalid just begin- ning to recover from a severe illness, The sea air is invigorating, yet not too harsh or strong; it is sunny even in. winter, and quiet even at the height. of the holiday season, . "This is perhaps the finest climate in Baas, wrote a former Lord Chancellor during a visit to Bognor, "having the mildness of the western and the dryness. of the 'eastern copst." He had gone to the town to all appearances a dying man; he re- turned from it restored to health and vigor. Others have since had the same experience, particularly in cases | of illness connected with the throat and lungs, | About 150 years ago Bognor was, | fike many other famous resorts, merely a fishing village, Sir Richard Hotham, a former Lon- don hatter, started to develop the place, the reputation' of the new watering- ace. Today Bognor is one of the most popular of the smaller English sea- side towns, It attracts visitors even in winter, and the climate is so mild that many people who formerly win- tered abroad for health reasons now go to Bognor instead. For, though the town is called "Breezy Bognor,' the prevailing wind is south-west, and the Downs give protection from northerly blasts, February and March are really spring-like at Bognor, whatever they may be in other parts | of the country. The King's stay: will andoubiedly | : make Bognor still more popular, both with winter and sully yisit- ors, just as the visit of Princess Mary's children to the neighboring Littlehampton awakened new interest in that resort, DICKENS OFFENDER BUT EVER SINCERE to whether | aa ada"s Heavy Rayon Bloomers High Grade Rayon ?

His Lordship dwelt upon the immense smount of work Dickens accom- plished in bis comparatively short life of 68 years. "It was perhaps mot altogether an unmixed blessing that Dickens' early apprenticeship to the Muses was served among the terribly wise and prudent Gentlemen of the Press," continued Lord Hewart. Here he naturally and easily ac- quired the doctrine that public af- fairs are rubbish, that politicians are humbugs, that lawyers are are persons in general are charlatans. "Dickens did not cease to lament and to resent the combination of misfortune and negligence which bad ved him of education, Tt would be idle to pretend that either the life or the work of Dickens was free from the sears of that resent- ment which perceived too clearly not only the unhappiness that was suffered, but also the happiness that was denied. "Fortunately for mankind genive of survived to the premature end. Hardship could pot freeze it, unkindpess could not wither it ever 2-rimony did mot blight it, and it stood firm against the mo less dangerous breezes of public enthusiasm and popular ap- use. Ricken' faults were many. He sinred taste, he could be both and vulgar, he was often aw ish p=? o tv aromt ; ~k, whether good or bad, had in full measure tue «. lity oi sineer- ity.

Men high in gobern- ment and senate circles state frankly that tke revolt has a very good chance of overthrowing the Mexican government. This might result in the United S§taets having to undertake another expedition with marines inte a Latin country. iguan experiment proved €0 unpopular with the average American that the government is not anxious to repeat it. But the nof American nationals and their property in Mexico will be the first comsideration. Hoover's Statement Hoover yesterday stated that he saw no reason for 2 change in the agreement where- by for five years the United States has permitted the shipment of 'arms from his country to a * le government in Mexico under lic- ense from the Secretary of State. | Pay Cash | | Pay Less was chary of expressing an opinion as to just what the government would do about licensing the per- iodical shipments of explosives to mining companies in Mexico for blasting purposes, There had been no recent application for such permits, he said. Asked if there was not a danger that such ex- plosivse would get into the hands of the rebels, he admitted there was and then said he would not license the shipment of any form of explosives unless the Mexican government approved. The policy of the Washington government seems to be that it will permit its nationals to sell arms to the Mexican government s0 long as it is a government. What would happen if the Gil gov- ernment should be overthrown is not to be discussed at present. Claim Revolt Broken Mexico City, Mar. 7.--The back- bone of the revolution, launched simultaneously last Sunday in northern and southeastern Mexico, has been broken up by Federal troops loyal to the government of President Portes Gil, official com- Today Secretary of State Kellogg muniques issued here late last night declare. . The latest statement from Chap- ultepre Castle, west of the govern- ment, gives the insurrection at the ov*~i"e only a week or two more of life. 'vue swiftly flowing tide of bat- tle turned strongly against the rebel forces. Outstanding among the Federal military triumphs an- nounced from the seat of the gov- ernment, was the capture of Mon- tery, capital of Nueva Leon and third city of Mexico. Agree to Armistice Mexico City, Mar. 7.--An of- fical bulletin today disclosed that Sanguinary street fighting occur- red in Vera Cruz' today between rebel forces under General Aguir- Je and troops who had deserted m. The consular corps of Vera Cruz, interviewed after a day of almost uninterrupted clashes, in order to prevent further bloodshed, said that the contending forces were persuaded to agree to an armistice. One of the conditions was that General Aguirre should leave the city. 4 . The belief was expressed in gov- ernment circles here that the gen- eral escaped by the sea. New York, Mar. 7.--Telegraph communication between the United States and Mexico 'City was ham- pered today. The Western Union announced that its land lines be- tween Vera Cruz and Mexico City had been cut, KILLED BY TRUCK Richmond Hill, Mar. 7.--Wil- liam Leonard, aged 6 years, of Rumble avenue, Richmond Hill, was instantly killed shortly after 5 o'clock last night when struck by a 3-ton truck, driven by Fred Cole, 21 Ontario street, Toronto. Leonard and a chum, George McMillan, were running along the highway when Leonard darted into the path of the southbound truck, witnesses said. The driver stopped in 12 feet, picked up the lad and removed him to ghe office of Dr. Lillian Lang- st#®, where life was pronounced extinct. A NEAT INVERSION "It's: a wonder when = people are presenting gifts to' newly married couples, they don't occasionally give them a clock," writes a sarcastic cor- respondent, Speaking of that, we recall a sign we noticed recently over the clock counter in a jeweler's shop: "Get you wedding present here now. No time*like the present and no present like the time."--Boston Transcript. ¥ |IWARD'SI| London, Mar. 7.--"Captain Bak- er," the woman who for years is understood to have posed as a man, and who was arrested for failing to attend bankruptey proceedings, has been removed from Brixto men's prison to Holloway goal, which is reserved for women. The Evenging News yesterday said that it had identified "the masquerader" as Mrs, Valerie Smith an English woman who was the wife of an Australian whom she married during the Great War in which she served as a nurse and lorry driver. She is the mother of a boy, aged nine, and a girl, eight. On her arrival at Briston prison this six foot masquerader, appar- ently about 45 years old, showed signs of collapse ahd asked to see the governor privately. An inter- view with the medical officer foi lowed, the upshot of which was a speedy transference of the prisoner to Holloway. The arrest of "Captain Baker" was effected at the Regent Palace hotel, near Piccadilly, where ac- cused had for some time been serv- ing as a reception clerk in a res- "CAPTAIN BAKER" IDENTIFIED IS JUST PLAIN MRS. ID ; SMITH taurant. Last year "The Captain" conducted a restaurant of her own in Litchfield street. Bankruptcy proceedings eventually were taken, but "the Captain" could not be found until last week. It seems "the captain" lived in a flat in the Mayfair district, whose rental ran into hundreds of pounds yearly, and was attended by a man who acted for "him" as a waiter by day. The. masquerader was well known at certain houses of refresh- ment in the theatrical district where although genial in company, "he" spoke little of "his" personal experiences. The association of "the captain" with National Fascisti headgquart- ers here was somewhat close, and "he" was a frequent attendant at social gatherings and much ested in securing recruits Fascisti movement.
