' The large numbek of menbers of the profession who have personally seen evidence of the care and devotion which the President has,,for many years, brought to. bear upon, the Society's affairs will realise that the honour is more than fully deserved.

Through 'a kindly thought in a solicitor's will, Mr. Bert Manmix,' pavement artist ig Oklacester Road, Kensington, is better off by £29, Mr .C. Dehn, who died last October, was the testator; and his legacy was: prompted by his ,. lytalks with the artist, whom he was wont to dibe 'as a great character ,and whose wowk hy-was accustomed to admire on his tvay to his i6ffice.
