PRINCE IN HIS BEST VEIN
At G.W.R. Centenary Dinner
(Special Air Mail Service)
London, Nov. 1. The Prince of Wales was in splendid form at the Great Western | Railway Centenary dinner,
He varied the customary intro- duction of the after-dinner speak er He began, "Mr. Chairman, Mrs. Baldwin, ladies and gentle- men"
NEW GLAND TREATMENT
Effect On The Per sonality Of Women
The development of abnormal personalities in woman has been traced to the cortex of the adrenal gland, and through surgery it has been found possible to correct the condition and restore femininity and attractiveness.

The Prince once again, 'in ́a phrase which brought down the house, showed that he is a diplo- mat born..
For some minutes he had been praising the G.WR.
Then, without a smile, he re- narked, "I am not forgetting the other railways". (pause) "but this is your night out."
QUEEN VICTORIA'S LEAD The Prince chose a personal simile to illustrate the progress of modern transport.
When, nearly 100 years STO, Queen Victoria made her first Journey by train from" Slough to Paddington ("and even declared she had enjoyed it." the Prince. | added), men and women shook their heads. So they did, he said, to a lesser extent some years ago, when he himself began to use the aeroplane as a convenient way of getting about the country.
Bir Robert Horne began his speech not less adroitly than the Prince. In proposing the taust of the evening the Prince said that the G.W.R. was entitled to have its trumpet blown on its centenary, and that he was glad to give it, “a hearty and resounding blast."!
To this Sir Robert Horne, replied that he was sorry he could only reply with a very feeble horn,"
