  the previous three years. This few drivers are likely to

  do--from simple inability to calculate what they really

  do earn, I mean. I heard of a man who, a strike

  for a " living wage " being on, insisted that he could

  not possibly earn more than 25s. a week ; and

  shortly afterwards, as the damaged plaintiff in a

  running-down case, swearing that is was a bad week

  for him when he only made eight pounds ! Still, one

  can hardly help feeling sorry for these poor fellows.

  To have to pay up seven pounds odd ! Almost as

  rotten for them as a rocky day's racing !

  N.B.--

  AFTER June 24, no newspapers--not even THE

  BYSTANDER--will be allowed to conduct their

  business on the principle of " Sale or Return." This

  Right column 

  statement may convey little or no meaning to you,

  so we want to explain exactly how it will affect you

  personally. It means that unless you take the trouble

  to order your BYSTANDER beforehand, either from

  the publishers or from your own newsagent, you will

  stand an excellent chance of not being able to get

  a copy of the paper at all. You will find the whole

  issue has been sold out as soon as published--and

  you'll be left. Which isn't right. And in these days,

  when you have to go without so many things, to go

  without THE BYSTANDER would be the absolute

  limit, wouldn't it ? So be wise in time, and make

  sure of your BYSTANDER, which gives you, and

  will continue to give you, a real good shillingsworth

  for ninepence, by ordering it beforehand. Before-

  hand. In fact, NOW.
