Their delight was short-lived when they leanied that a new series of taxes are to be imposed. These will nominally be applicable to the tire manufacturers, but the cyclists fear that they will be the ones to pay in the end, with increased prices oi tires..

MAKE APPEAL T0 NURSES CAPE TOWN, South Africa, July 2'I—An appeal for bilingual nurses to join the King Edward VII, Ord- or of Nurses was made by the Gov- Omar-General Lord Clarendon. at the annual meet of South Africa, nurses speaking both English and Afrikaans in the course gf their duuea Lord Clarendon dealt with the question of bilingual nurses. Those w-ho were entitled to express 0pm- ions, he stated, said there was n0 doubt that the work of the Order had suffered through the lack of bilingual nurses. He expressed the hope that in thb respect nurses with the knowledge of both 19118- uages would come forward to assist the ‘Order. At the outset of his remarks Lord Clarendon said he wished to refer to the difficulties with which they were face to face, and also to make an appeal to the inhabitants oi the Union to come to their assistance and to help them to remedy those difficulties. He understood that the two main difficulties which the 0r- der was now faced with were the question oi finance and the lack of bilingual nurses. He was quite 8- ware that the time in which they lived today were bad, but lie re- fused to believe that there were in the Union people of a generous mind who would riot be preipored to come to their assistance on the question oi finance at a. time like this.
