Namier, in the Manchester Guardian I had a slight acquaintance with Lawrence in our undergraduate days, but knew nothing about him. A day or two after war had been deâ€" clared he took me to a disused rifle range in North Oxford to practise snooting. I do not remember how I fell in with him that day, nor where he got the riflie, and it strikes me only now that this cannot have been his first visit to the range. _ With what ‘plans or dreams had he been practising there? After that forâ€" several years I heard nothing of him, for only when I met ;fin in the lounge of the Hotel Majestic at the Paris Conference in a colonel‘s uniform did I â€"realize ‘ CHARACTER STUDY OF T.

In the parlance of the pugilistic ring, unscrupulous directors and proâ€" moters got one "right on the button" when the Commons passed a bill reâ€" casting the law governing company incorporations _ a nd _ management along the lines suggested by the price spreads commission. In eflect,l the blow would cause company dirâ€" ectors to pass a resolution that money received for par value stock was just and equitable. Then, if a court found otherwise, the directors would be liable to the company for ng bill hit a few bad curves on its | road throtgh the House, but there was no division on third reading. There was practically a general asâ€" sault upon the measure. The potâ€". shots, however, did little damage and on the suggestion of some op‘{ position members Sir George Perley amended the bill. so municipalities could deal direct with the governâ€" ment and not through a loan or inâ€" surance company, As it finally passâ€" ed, the bill provided a fund of} 10,000,000 under the control of thel Minister of Finance. From this, ad-l vances could be made to a limit of; 20 per cent. of the cost of the house., providing loan or insurance comâ€" panies or municipalities put up 60' per cent. and the owner the remain-“ ing 20. The interest to be charged | by loan companies will be 5% per| cent., with the government rate 3% per cent. I While some opposition â€" members staged another attack on the Marketâ€" ing Act, the Minister of Agriculture forecast a price differential scheme for the dairying industry, Details of this scheme have not been worked out, but the general idea would be to place levies against one section of the industry for the purpose . of butter prices were above the world market, _ producers shipping to creameries might be taxed and the proceeds used to bonus farmers who shipped their milk to cheese factorâ€" ies with prices considérably lower.

He was fond of Cubist paintings, and his statements sometimes partook of a Cubist character.

"Trees grew down by the (river. till they grew above its bank and saw the ruins of Troy, and they | withered away." _ It was this deep ‘negation of life which drew him to the desert, and next to the sterility ,of garrison life. besides, there was the infinite caâ€" pacity for suffering, and even the downright desire for it. â€" He could bear any pain, outride the Arabs on a camel, do without sleep and food; at times it would almost seem as if he had no physical existence.
