We have to thank a northern contemporary for giving us something out of the ordinary in the way of a journalistic misapprehension. The paper heads a paragraph thus:
British King Hears Lecture on German-Influence upon Eng-gush History Then the paragraph:
The historical adviser of the British Foreign Office, Mr. Headlem Morley, read a paper on German influence on British history before the King's College in London in the presence of Gennan Ambassador Sthamer who heartily welcomes the lecture as first step on a long steep road leading to bring the two nations in close touch again...
The King, of course, is assiduous in his attendance at the King's College, just as he would never dream of missing a performance when His Majesty's Theatre is in full swing. By the way, it would be interesting to know whether the lecture referred to above was accompanied with musical illustratrations from the compositions of Edward German.
Text read from the printed page and cleaned; old type leaves the occasional error.
