Neither Malaya tor Ceylon ein claim to offer to coolies the only prospects werth looking at: and new factors have rather counterbalanced the advantage that both there countries, especially Ceylon, have en joyed from the geographical situation, so near to India. The stream of immigration is thinning, as it is bound to do under present condi tions here, in view of Indian com petition, and the rise in wages there. If the coolie is as well off in India as in Malaya, he cannot be expected ro show the former alacrity in leav ing, even acknowledging that every. thing possible is done here to house hira properly, preserve him in bodily health, etc. If the price of rubber were to fall appreciably, a big increase in production costs couldno: be regarded without qualms by a number of estates in the Peninsula, but, generally, the price leaves a useful present
there margin of profit, and as is no reason:
anticipate to that further concessions to the labourer, which may be decided upon, will be such as to reduce profits to a point that closely infringes on the prosperity mark of the various Com- panies, the industry should be able to stand them. Everything Indeed points to rubber fetching a satisfac- tory figure and maintaining it for some time.

Mr. E. W. G. Masterman delivered a lecture on The Walls of Jerusalem at various periods before the Victoria Institute at the Central Hall, West

The original wall built partly by David and then by Solomon Sunday, 11.15 a.m. and later kings, ran from the Wednesdays, 5.30 p.m. Temple enclosure along the western branch of the Tyropean. Valley to the corner gate where now is the Jaffa gate, and then south and so finally enclosing the ancient City to the Temple. Then there were a second and later a third wall. If the theory were correct that the second wall ran from the centre of the western branch of the Tyropean Valley north eastwards so as to enclose a part of the eastern valley, then the Church of the Holy Sepulchre would be! outside the wall. The third wall was built burriedly in 70 A D., and was
