Speaking on "India,, the Land of Colours and Caste," Mr. George recalled incidents of his- trip through that country eighteen month's 3go. Tho long railway, .journey from south to north, a stay in Calcutta, a flying visit to Eastern Bengal, and the crossing of the .north-west. plains to Bombay, afforded material for a most enlightening talk.

■ By means of lantern slides,'the temples of ' India were brought near, the rice famines appeared in convincing vividness, and the work of the missions, notably the Y.M.C.A., 'was illustrated in an. interesting fashion.- The lecturer conveyed a quantity of useful information regarding the customs and condition of the people, the effect of caste differences, the attitude of students to mission, work, and the trouble among the natives.

At the conclusion a vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Georgej and to Mr. W. Driffield, who had charge of the projecting lantern.

The men of the Hatless Brigade are still to be ssen hero and there. Some have flowing locks, and some are very 6c:fnt of hair. They look conspicuous and queer, of course, but they have the satisfaction of blowing that to go hatless is. a .good thing for tho hair—so long as they don't, get it wet too often. There is a much easier way of keeping vour hair or curing baldness. John Strange Winter's marvellous Hair Pood is all that its name implies. It feeds tho hair's roots, clears the head of dandruff, establishes healthy, natural conditions, and so ensures luxuriant and permanent growth. This is an advertisement.'
