In his reply. Sir George Clerk sald how glad he was to see many French friends present: tes- lying to the ever real friendship between our two peoples.

In lustration of how French civilisation had made its, mark on Scottish literature and language the Ambassador recalled, among other examples, how in 1888 the Provost of Edinburgh had used the word 'douce' to allay the fears t the Lords of the Convention when scured by John Graham of Clover- house.

THE SCOT'S' ADAPTABILITY Major Ian Hay Beith, another guest of honour, expressed his sur- prise at finding so many Scots in Paris and told many stories of the adaptability the

PICTURE SURPRISE AT

CHRISTIE'S

Monday picture sales at Christle's are usually of little importance, but now and again they have pro- vided surprises in the form of a little-thought-of plcture proving to be one of some importance..

The penultimate lot in the sale, "Catalogued as: "Rembrandt, A

Musical Party, on panel 10in. x. 19țin.” furnished the first auction surprise of the new season. ·

On being placed on the easel the plature received an opening bid of £5, but the keen competition which followed between one of two of the dealers soon made it evident that the panel was more important than the initial bid had suggested. The result of the auction was that it cost Mr. E. J. Spielman £2,205— Messrs. Asscher and Welker being the under-bidders."
