...Hightstown, N. J., James Fischer, 79, living with his niece, Mrs. Thomas H. Everett, entered the dining room one morning to find there was no room for him at the breakfast table. Grumbling bitterly, he took his bowl of cereal into the kitchen, soon returned with a pistol, shot his niece's son-in-law, Kelton Pearce...
...husband: "Don't you want the car?" "No," she replied, "it's such a nice day I'd rather walk." She left. Mr. Coolidge sat talking with Secretary Ross-about the Plymouth place, last year's partridge shooting, hay fever. He strolled to the kitchen to get a drink of water.

Of an adroit British cast which includes Herbert Mundin, Beryl Mercer, John Warburton, Frank Lawton and four child actors, Diana Wynyard gives the most noteworthy characterization...
...university training can do nothing that would forward it more than the founding of post-graduate fellowships and the building and endowing of a hall where the holders of them might be commensals, remembering that when Cardinal Wolsey built Christ Church at Oxford his first care was the kitchen. Nothing is so great a quickener of the faculties, or so likely to prevent their being narrowed to a single groove, as the frequent social commingling of men who are aiming at one goal by different paths...
