Dinny Charwell is keeping a stiff upper lip over her late disastrous love-affair with her Byronic poet (Galsworthy enthusiasts will remember with a shudder that he was also an apostate).

Samson (who collaborated) are busily completing a special kind of x-ray tube through which the volts may shoot to shatter atoms. Atoms must be broken up if scientists are ever to know precisely what everything is made...
