Warr, about to re tire from sea life after forty-nine years of it, said on the Campania: “Yes, it is true that sea captains are sometimes annoyed by passengers who think they know more about nav- igation than the navigator himself. “I know a captain to whom a pas senger- once said: “‘What town is this we are ap proaching, cap? “‘Derwent, sir.” “‘No, cap, you are mistaken. Look at this map here. According to thie map it's Fordham-on-Tyne." - “The captain said nothing, and a moment later the passenger asked: “‘What channel is that, captain? “‘Egg channel, sir.’ ““Why, man, you're wrong again!

Few people understand why eggs play so important a part in Easter celebrations. - The reason is that the mediaeval law forbade - eggs *during Lent, and, hence, at Easter the hun- gry mediaeval populace returned to their favorite dish”’ with rejolcing. With us today, when Lent no’longer forbids eggs, there is no reagon for teaturing them upon our Easter Sun- day breakfast menu. But we do so— It is the pretty survival of an obso- lete custom. In Elizabeth’s time he who ate flesh " during Lent was fined three pounds sterling. He who so much as had meat in his house was pil- lorfed or set in the stocks. But the rich, as usual, dodged the harsh Lenten laws, and they who could afford it bought licenses to eat meat in Lent. For these licenses a lord was charged 26 shillings, a knight tourteen shillings and & commoner ICl 12. Price.
