* * * Mr. Henry Rundle, F.R.C.S., of 18 Clarence
Parade, Southsea, writes to draw attention to the excellent work of the S.P.G. in sending literature to missionaries and settlers abroad. It is in the hands of Miss M. L. Kirk- patrick, 15 Tufton Street, Westminster, S.W. 1. Mr. Rundle writes :— "1 know of a lonely man in the Seychelles who is delighted to get a copy of the Spectator. which is sent to him in response to the S.P.G. appeal." The cable brings the excellent news that the Convention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the world will meet in London next summer. The British delegation, headed by Mr. John Cheshire, Mr. C. Harold Vernon and Mr. W. S. Crawford, deserve our heartiest congratulations on the success of their mission, for the huge gathering at Atlantic City passed a unanimous vote. Houston, Texas,- the only other aspirant, withdrew magnanimously in favour of London. Probably a thousand American advertising managers will therefore visit us next summer, and it behoves us to see that they take away with them as happy memories of our hospitality as the British delegation will have. Here is a great opportunity for the members of the English-Speaking Union and others. On Monday the British delegates were received by President Harding at the White House.
