" We may make mistakes in trying to help others , but what pardonable mistakes they are ! The man who does things makes mistakes , but he never makes the greatest mistake of all , doing nothing . Mistakes are often the first letters in the lessons of life . We can make strong words out of them , if we will . When you make a mistake , do not look back at it long . Take the reason of the thing into your mind : then look forward . It is foolish to try to hide our mistake ; in the first place , it cannot be done very long ; and if it could it would only add a second mistake to the first . It is a mistake to pay no attention to the mistakes of others , nor try to help them out of them . Aiding others to be strong is the best way to strengthen ourselves . not reinstate one man . Five hundred feet of film were destroyed in a fire which broke out in the basement of pre- mises occupied by the Barker Motion Photo- graphy Company , Soho - square . A Divisional Court decided , in the Liver pool licensing test case , that brewers need not hold the licence of a public - house owned by them when it is controlled by a manager . That he had lived for twenty years with a broken back sustained through falling from a roof was stated at the inquest on Robert Richardson , aged fifty - one , who died in South- wark Infirmary . Lord Zouche , who stood fifth on the roll of Barons , has died suddenly at his London resi- dance , aged sixty - three . He is succeeded by his sister , the Hon . Darea Curzon . Instructions have been issued from the head- quarters of the W.S.FU. to all the branches that during the present crisis no act of mili tancy is to be perpetrated . Over 200 students from all parts of Europe out of 300 who have taken tickets for the vacation course of study for foreign students attended the inaugural lecture at Oxford , by One of the mistakes that poisons home life far the larger portion being Germans of both Is the unwillingness to yield in unimportantes . trifles .

It is not our mistakes that cause us to fail , say . but only a wrong attitude toward our mis- takes . The Chinese " Our greatest glory is not in never falling , but in rising every time we fall .

" The comparison in general form ( betwee the men players and the women players sh the recent championship ) was so obvious as to indicate that lawn - tennis as a game for men is becoming altogether a different game from women's lawn - tennis . Played side by side at Wimbledon as they are , the distinction , which has always been marked in some de- gree by the disparity in physical resources , is becoming more clearly defined each year , says Mr. H. L. Bourke in Baily's Magazine . And is it not at the expense of the women's game , which is getting less publicity in the Press because of its clashing with another type of game , which in the comparative sense is considered to h of more importance and of greater public interest ! an officer at A polo pony belonging to Aldershot the other day performed a remark- able feat by clearing an eight - foot hedge be- side a railway embankment . The animal took fright in the village of Weybourne whilst being ridden by a lad named Beane . It raced along the Lower Farnham - road , and at the base , by Eggar's Hill , swerved to avoid a cark This brought it up to the hedge , which , without hesitation , it took , although there was a awkward take - off . Landing on the embankment , it threw its rider and raced Along to Aldershot Station , a distance of three - quarters of a mile . At the station it Was turned , and it galloped back to the Manor Bridge , where it was captured , none the worse for its exploit .

They are generally supposed to be grave and cold , bus probably no . Southern race could reach their exaltation or their fanaticism . A young lady tells the story of how she played golf one day near London with a famous champion She noticed that on one hand the little finger and part of the palm were missing , and asked him sympathetically by what form of accident he had suffered .
