Wine Takes Place At Smart West End Gatherings Prince of Wales Started Sherry Vogue With Beneficial Results to Digestion Connoisseurs Sample Port at Demonstration Royalty and Stolen Tankard. Br CIARUS AH TIN. LONDON Wine Is -in the newt" Tint, we have the official statistics telling ua that Britain ia drinking mlllioni more bottlea of sherry and champagne, second, we have heart-rendini reporta of a alump from the French vineyards that grow the champagne. Third, we have the Wine and Food Society holding one of their select little parties to initiate novice into the myiteriea of port-tasting.

From all of this (except the unhappy plight of the chamrjagne- growers) you may deduce signs of wnat our American friends call an "upturn." Chamoazne. sherry and port are luxury winea; and it we are drinking more of them it means that we have more money to spend. Prosperity, brandishing a magnum, is Just around the corner. The Sherry Vega. But If you art of a philosophic rather than an economic turn of mind, you may deduce interesting changes in national character.

The cocktail party ia giving place to the sherry party; frivolous festivities are giving place to staider gatherings, drinking a connoisseur's wine. The leaders of the sherry trade ought to ask the Prince of Wales to be their patron. For It was he who really started the vogue for sherry several yeara ago. Ever since then It haa been ateadily gaining ground on cocktails with beneficent results on the liver and stomach-lining of the party-going Englishman. Cheap Champagne.

Not many years ago champagne was a drink for rare and expensive occasions. Now you can get a passably good bottle of "bubbly for the price of a flrst-class Burgundy. Still, even cheap champagne ia not poor man's drink; and I think the economlsta can rightly claim as an "upturn" sign the fact that Britain drank more than a million more bottlea of It in the past nine months. The cheapness of champagne, of sours explains the poverty of the people who grow it This year's arop was a bumper one; but the men who grew the grape got only one-tenth of the price they received before the war. Styla.

eennot leave the subject of champagne without passing on the latest post-prohibition story from America, where they are just celebrating the nnt anniversary of legal drinking. The story concerns a but-ler who was serving champagne at New York party. Hitherto his experience bad been eontaed, to cocktails, almost the CHIEF JUSTICE SCORES POINT IN THE LORDS Debate One of Greatest Heard in Upper House Since War. easasasn Press CaMe.

Mr. Chamberlain is the only member of the Cabinet who can lay claim to being a connoisseur of port; but he gave it up some time ago because of his gout. Port-drinking, indeed, is almost a lost art in England: and it was in a spirit of Interested Innocence that most of us went to the Wine and Food Society's demonstration the other day.

The Five Varieties. Some visitors were even surprised to be told that there are five distinct kinds of port crusting, ruby, tawny, white and vintage. Each has its points, and connoisseurs were In attendance to explain them. "White" port, of course. Is not white, but yellow.

It is supposed to have been given Its name for the benefit of ladies who were afraid that ruby" port would make their nose red! "Stolen Property." Laxity on the part of souvenir-hunters reminds me of an American story again a drink atory. but this time dating back to long before prohibition days. It concerns the visit of the late Prince Henry of Prussia to the President of the United State. The President decided that lager was the appropriate beverage for the formal luncheon to which the German Prince was Invited. But the White House did not possess the necessary tankards, so they were1 borrowed from a local German restaurant.

Like hotel-keepers and steamship companies, this restaurateur had suffered from souvenir-hunters and therefore had all his property clearly marked. So when the Royal guest drained his tankard, he found inscribed on the bottom: "Stolen from Ernst Gerstenberg." TEST CRICKETER MYSTERT. LONDON. K. H.

Five-Day Week Proves Success In Drug Company Birmingham i Reports Higher Efficiency and Regularity as Result of Experiment. BIRMINGHAM.

Eng. "The working of the five-day week has proved an unqualified success both from the business point of view and that of the employ, and I am satisfied that it continued over the Winter months the results will prove equally satisfactory. This statement aums up the con' elusions of Sir Richard Redmayne in his report, issued on the experimental working of the five-day week, without reduction In pay. at Boots Pure Drug Company, Nottingham. The report la addressed to Lord Trent chairman the company, as the result of whose request Sir Richard Redmayne waa nominated by the Minister of Labor as an independent investigator to conduct an inquiry into the working of the scheme, which Is to be continued Indefinitely.

All EnlhaslssUe. In his conclusions. Sir Richard states: "I sm of the opinion that the cost in the aggregate haa not been enhanced, and certainly there has been attained a higher efficiency on the part of the employes. "The effects In regard to enhancement of health and contentment regularity of attendance at work, and diminution of absenteeism have been very marked. "The employes themselves are enthusiastic in regard to the experiment and view with dismay any suggestion of a return to the five-and-a-half-day week.

"My opinion Is that the experiment might be applied at many works." Questions put to employes conveyed the impression, in every case but one. that they regarded the Saturday holiday as a blessing to themselves, and la many instances, to their parents. The medical officer to the staff and head of the' Welfare Department said that adult workers came back to work on Monday fresher and keener under the five day's system than under the old one and that the number of accidents had been reduced.

Walker was pernaps me niuei famous of the old-time clowns, who used to come on with "red-hot" poker In the harlequinade which followed the pantomime. It is a pathetic reflection that not only did he behold all his contemporaries in clowning pau away before him. but he also witnessed the virtusl extinction of this branch of "the profession." For 40 years Whimsical Walker was principal clown in Drury Lane pantomime, and for the last seven years he had appeared in the same role at the Christmas circus at Olympia.

Last Christmas Princess Elizabeth paid her first visit to the circus. Whimsical Walker as usual walked around the edge of the ring, shaking hands with the children. When he reached the Royal party he held out the poker to the Princess, who promptly grasped it before she shook hands with Whimsical Walker. The aged clown had signed a contract to appear again at Olympia this Christmas. Walker's greatest success was in Henglex's Circus, with a performing donkey he had taught to "sing." but it was tne same uoiiacj 1 mA IinD for SirVUiavilT Quern Vlrtorie when he was com manded to appear at wuiusur.
