A large audience listened to the doctor throughout with the closest attention and evi- dent appreciation. During the af- ternoon selections were given by the Norwegian Glee club, and much en- joyed. > While the human race was one, said Dr. Bland, and while God had madé of one blood all the nations of the earth, yet within that limit there was Infinite variety. Superficial differences were very marked, and there were also enormous differen-| ces of complexion. There were lit- tle Lape and tall, brawny Scotsmen, Russians and Afghans, Climatic and othér influences set firmly the differ- ent types.

London, Dec. 26---(Corresponden- ce of The Associated 'Press)--"How to keep safe under shell-fire" is the title of a statement given to the press by a prominent army officer, for the benefit of coast towns. "The first fact to bear in mind," he says, "is that no buildings in this country, however substantial, offer any protection against bombardment by warships. The biggest guns brought into action by the Germans at Scarborough and Hartlepool were of 12-inch calibre. These fire a projectile weighing about 900 pounds one of which would be sufficient to lay the great cathedral of St. Paul in ruins. v "The other guns used were 11- inch, 8.2-in, and 9.9-in, throwing respectively shells weighing 700, 250 and 100 pounds. The lightest of these projectiles would go through the walls of any building as if they were hrown paper, and its bursting charge of high explosion or the flying splinters they annihilating effect. "The inside of a house, then, is the very worst place to be during a bombardment, for if a shell™ strikes the building and the inmates have the luck to escape direct injury from the explosion .or the flying splinters they are almost certain to be buried in falling debris or imprisoned and at the mercy of the fire which usdally breaks out.
