The two septugenarians, G.B.8. and Sir Robert, appeared to find much in common. They discussed the problems of China and Japan, the League of Nations, the con stitutions of foreign governments and, since Shaw was one of the two, it is hardly necessary to add, Communism. It has not been made public if any great conclusions were arrived at, but we learn that Sir Robert and his guest exchanged their views on life generally in a candid, and friendly manner.

After tiffin photographs and mov. ing pictures were taken of the party who then drove to Repulse Bay Hotel, returning to Bir Robert's Peak residence for tea. At 5.30 the party drove down to Queen's Pier where Mr. and Mrs Shaw bade their host and hostess farewell, and took a launch for the Empress of Britain.

Bernard Shaw broke what he describes as his one "principle" in giving his autograph during tiffin, he also signed the visitors book at "Idlewild."
