Winston Churchill even = went ' further in this approval by presiding | at Commander Evans' first lecjure in England at Albert hall, when a new record was made in England both for the largest lecture audience, and also for the largest receipts--in it- self a gratifying reward for a man who has spent the hest twelve years of his life south of the Antarctic cir- | cle. Commander Evans' lecture | here will be about the last that he will make, for he is on his return! from the Pacific coast. Everywhere | the greaest honors have been paid! him, We can only trust that when! he comes here, he will receive the! same welcome as has awaited him elsewhere.
