LONDON.

IN quiet Bedford Square, dreaming away behind London's busy Tottenham Court Road, is the Royal Anthropological Institute.

"Anthropology-the study of man as - an animal" is too technical a definition to give the layman any idea of what a. fascinating study it is. In spite of this, an average of seventy-five people a day have visited their exhibition "Traditional Art Of The British Colonies" which is one of the many shows being held to mako Britain "colony-conscious" during Colonial Month.

This exhibition is small. Out of more than forty colonies, only a dozen: are represented, and of these, the West African colonies, and in particular, Nigeria, have the largest display.

Last week the Earl of Listowel, Minister of State for the Colonies, paid a

visit to the exhibition, and` was shown round by Mr- Fagg (who is responsible for the organisation), ne- companied by some of his colleagues from the Depart- ment of Ethnography of the British Museum.

Lord Listowel was particular- ly interested In the Yoruba section, and closely examined nearly all the exhibits. He asked Mr Fogg a great many questions nbout the ancient history of the pieces, and his nitention was distracted
