That one of the quaint things disoov "red by Col. S. D. Johnston during ins recent visit to England and Scotland. Berwick was one of the place she saw and. according to his ( count. Berwick Is not a part of, "ither England or Scotland. For merly the town objected to the. Scottish eatUe thieves who crossed the border and also to the EngtUh driving thent-back-thnniah their city and so became an independent borough. When war was declared it was on behalf of Oreat Britain and Ireland and Berwiek-on-Tweed The last name was omitted ln the peace declaration. Col. Johnston visited in Somerset shire and very much admired the scenery there, particularly at Ched dar. the place which became fa mous by the making of cheese. The lakes district of England, one of the show districts of England, was1 also enjoyed. At Edinburgh the centre of attraction was the war memorial at Edinburgh Castle, so built as to blend into the ancient castle tower and other buildings. It was in memory of all Scottish people who lost their Uvea in the war. A memorial tablet was erected there to the 18th Canadian Scottish. During his visit to Salisbury Plains he had gone to an old fashioned inn at night, rang a huge bell and awakened the proprietor from sleep to let him In. The bed In which he slept that night was a historic one in which King Charles I. had slept. The floor of the room was on a slant and everything very old and quaint. At Wells Cathedral the Bishop's Palace was surrounded by a moat with a portcullis. Swans lived In the moat and just above them was a rope which rang a bell. The swans had been trained centuries ago to ring this bell when feeding time came and the young swans Inheri ted the custom which had become with them an Instinct. When the bell rang they were fed. The small sise of the suits of ar-, mor used by the ancient knights, was a matter of note. In one of the small towns visited there was an annual custom to pat so msny men In armor and deliver them to the lord of the manor. Boys had to be used for this purpose now because none of the armor which years agot served full grown men was large enough for the present Inhabit ants A similar conditions was noted ln the Tower of London. rvtMtU In rooarrl in tniirtki wasi noted. At one village ehurch he saw) some tourists were visiting and were evidently In a hurry. To save time a man had said to his wife: "You do the nuiMde. I will do the Inside."
