The obligation to register is imposed by the act on every male, citizen or resident, in the United States, between the ages of 18 and 26, with only the general exception of members of the armed forces on active duty and certain aliens.

The young man who becomes 18 is required to register at a local board office within five days of the date of his 18th birthday, but if he happens to be away from home he need not return, he may register at the nearest local board having even though it is in another state. After he registers, it is mandatory that a registrant keep his local board informed of any change in his address or change in status. This applies after he becomes 26 as well as before. Concerning the man who di not register during the desig nated registration days, Aug. 3' to Sept.

Everyone drives on the left and it is most confusing to the American visitor. There are many makes automobiles manufactured here Some of the more prominent are the Daimler and Rolls Royce in the larger cars and the Lea Frances, Sunbeam and Bentley in the smaller cars. Most English autos are smaller than our Ford or Chevrolet. There are many as small or only slightly larger than our Crosley. They seem to operate very well and are in good style.

However they are very expensive due to taxes and, I imagine lack of production know-how by their manufacturers. The Daimler and Rolls are priced at $25,000. Ten thousand of this is tax as the same car can be purchased in New York for $15,000. Even the most inexpensive cars cost the Englishman close to $4,000. While we complain, justifiably, of our high taxes at home, the English really are in a bad way Smoking material, such as pipes, and tobacco, are subject to a 60 percent tax.

Cigarettes are from 50 cents to $1 a pack and a 10- cent cigar will cost 50 cents in England. Selfridge's and Harrud's are two large department the former much like Marshall Field's in Chicago. Mr. Selfridge, the founder, was a former em- ploye of Field's. Prices on women's wear and household furnishings seemed to us to be around 50 percent higher than at home.

When we realize that the average wage in England amounts to $25 per 66 it is easy to understand that life is rather grim. You see long lines, or ques as they are called here, outside of food stores, waiting to purchase their allotment of rationed staples, which are low in price. Economically, the war has not ended in England. Meat is limited to 20 cents SMORGASBORD EVERY WEDNESDAY, $2 An Invitation to (EXCEPT MONDAY) LUNCHEON P.M. meal DINNER P.M.

One must admire the English for their willingness to sacrifice in order to overcome the tremendous losses suffered during the war. I spent an hour this morning with Major Bruce, one of the socialist ministers of health.
