Two Curzons

The Marquis Curzon of Kedleston, British Secretary of State for Foreign Affaires, returned from Bagnoles-de-l'Orne in the North of France where he went for his health. He took the waters there for his kidney trouble.

The story of the waters at Bagnoles originated many centuries ago. A knight whose sole mundane possession was an old war charger once entered the woods at Bagnoles to die. His horse discovered the pool and was rejuvenated. With the customary antics he led his master to the pool of youth and shortly after man and beast emerged from the wood to seek fame and fortune.

Paris has it that Lord Curzon had great expectations of the place. It is hoped that if he is cured he will change his attitude to France out of sheer gratitude.

London has it that Lord Curzon, who is 64, will resign in the Fall if his health is not benefited by his stay in France.

England possesses another Curzon, equally notorious, but in a different way. Captain Francis Richard Henry Penn, Viscount Curzon, is no relation of the Foreign Minister. He is the son and heir of

Lord Howe and is a member of the House of Commons--his title being held by courtesy. His chief claim to fame is 16 convictions for exceeding the automobile speed limit. He wants the limit raised.

Lord Curzon, 39 years of age, says the reason he appears to be a speed maniac is because when other people are caught their chauffeurs get the blame; he drives his own car. He is also captain of the House of Commons Cricket Team.
