Mr. Bernard Shaw has not hitherto shown much interest in that side of feminine nature which has caused, cynics to say that every woman is a rake at heart.

The play he is now engaged upon may remedy this, for it turns upon the adventures of an hotel housemaid who is in love with all the male guests.

The marriage ceremonies should be particularly interesting. Mar- riage is one of the most sacred and Piano Solp outstanding evanta In the life of a man or woman and its sanctity has been marked, in all civilisations, by wealth of ceremony. Chinese marriage customs are amongst the most highly developed and at the Asme time are of very ancient origin. We often see a bridal pro- cession passing along the street and we wonder about the rest of the rite. At the China Exhibition, it will be possible to see these cere- monles enacted and explained in a spirit of reverence and respect.

In Europe a man's 60th birthday. is commonly regarded as a time when insurance payments cease, but in China the occasion is celebrated most appropriately with n ritunt of its own. The ceremonies which attend this milestone in the life of a man are most interesting and in- structive and a visit to the China Exhibition will be well repaid by this demonstration alone.
