It has been found more prasticable to establish head- aumafi for submarines at New Lon- lon for the reason that not only could mechanical troubles of the underwater craft be adjusted, but both officers and men would have comfortable quarters when not crujsing.

Slater Hall was well filled on Mon- day afterncon at 4 o'clock, when the opening number of the Popular Lec- ture Course was held, the lecturer be- ing Willam Lyon Phelps, Ph. D, Lamson protessor of Engiish litera- ture in Yale, and the subject, A Lit- erary Pligrimage in England. Profes- sor Phelps was here last year and needed no introduction to his audi- ence, many of whom bad heard him peak on his previous visit. The audi- ence was in harmony wWith his lecture, delivered in easy flowing language, as was very evident from the closeness with which they followed him on his tour throughout the British Isles. From the rolling, sloping country of the Bussex Southdowns, where hun- dreds of thousands of sheep peace- fully grase he transported them to the wild, desolate wastes in the north- west and then to the majestic, yet, literally, terrible Land's End. = The Carlyle,' Burns and Scott countries in Scotland, the River Wye, of which Tennyson speaks in his “In Memori- am” and the sands of the River Dee, of which Tennyson sings in “Call the Cattle,” were among the more inter- esting’ places referred to by Professor Phelps. Prefacing his lecture, Prof. Piips said: I have never had the elightest intention to be the first to reach the top of a mountain; I would rather be the last. 1 go to places not because they are remote, but because they are well known. I would stand on a street corner in London rather than see the targest icebergs, or the long- est string of mountains in the world, and I am in a positon to judge as I have seen both. England is a country almost exactly the size of Michigan or North Caro- lina, that is it contains about 50,000 square miles. Michigan has hardly any variety but in England you have nearly every variety of scenery, ex- cepting the snow capped mountains, and of course you have them in winter. In Devonshire there is hardly a squgre inch of level ground; it is all up I and down and the property is divided by beautiful hedgerows. The Sussex South- downs have rolling country, sloping down to the channel and here may be seen hundreds of thousands of sheep. Going from the rolling York- shire moors to the northwest you get in wild, desolate country. The Englishman doesn’t have to leave his own country to get variety and so Englishmen can't be blamed for not being great travelers. The English rivers look like toy streams. They are more like that we call creeks. <8 After visiting the home of Robert Herrick, in a_remote spot in Devon- shire, Prof. Phelps went up to the Lorna Doon country in North Devon. As you walk through that country, said Prof. Phelps, it does seem that every single view that greets the (ye is_trying to fllustrate the book. Land’s End, said the speaker, is one of the most desolate, literally, terrible places in thé worl It is a place that makes England's isola- tion more real to you. The River Wye, of whidh Tennyson speaks of in"“in Mewmoriam” is a beautiful lit- tle river, and there is but one way to see if, that is, by row boat. Hire a couple of boat men to row you down. Parts of the river are very narrow and other parts are so shal- low that the boatmen have to pole and you can hear the bottom of the boat " scraping the riverbed. After speaking of the wonderful and magnificlent cathedrals, Prof. Phelps spoke of his visit to the River Dee. The tide was away out, he said, and I couldn’t help thinking of Ten- nyson's ballad, Call the Cattle. north of Ireland, Prof. Phelps saw the turf or peat fire and he has a_piece of bog butter, said to be 250 years old. During the warring times two or three hundred years ago the Irish hotse- wives buried their butter when the eoldiers appeared. people were all killed or else they forgot the places where it was buried and it is often dug up with the peat, In a perfectly preserved state. Across the border in Scetland, in the southwest, is the country of Hob- ert Burns, in the south the country of Carlyle and in the southeast the Sir Walter - Scott country, I at the Pheips sald he was amazed sizo of the raoms {n which the people of those days lived.

The Still, Small Volce, One day during the reading lesson we came to the word “consclence.” Trying to make the meaning clear, I started by saying: “It is that little voice within us—" but was quickly in- terrupted by a little fellow who ex- {clatmed: ““Yes'm, I know.

In the British Pharmacopoela & *“drop” is defined as coming from a tube of which the external diameter is exactly three millimeters, 20 such drops of water at 15 degrecs Centi- grade being equivalent to one milliliter or cubic centimeter.
