"THE ADVENTURE OF LADY URSULA." This is very properly called "a great play." and it is a great company which Mr. Norman V. Norman and Miss Beatrice Wilson have brought to Folkestone to present it. The story, which is a dramatised version of Anthony Hope's welbknoorn novel of the same name, is an old English one, and the costumes and the surroundings are very perfect. Although upwards of a dozen characters take part, the interest centres mainly on two, "Sir George Sylvester and The Lady Ursula Barrington." The former is represented by Mr.

Norman V. Norman, one of the most noted actors of the day, and Miss Beatrice Wilson is every bit as successful in the difficult part of the fascinating "Lady Ursula." One of the most enthralling scenes is that in Act 3, wherein the courageous lady is apparently on the verge of fighting a duel with "Sir George" with pistols, only one of which is to be loaded, and the combatants take their places one on each side a table in the drawing mom. The conversation between the gentlemen of the King's guard, prior to this event, is most amusing. It is no wonder the play everywhere draws large audiences. The full cute is as Earl of Hai-1 senden, Mr.

A wish several friends of the late Major-General Sandham that some memorial should be erected to perpetuate his memory in the Parish Church, of which for four years he was warden, and for some twenty year's a liberal supporter of the various organisations connected therewith. his proposed (if sulkient funds are forthcoming) that the memorial should take the form of a restoration of the baptistry in oak panelling, a scheme which has the approval of the Vicar and also of the, family of the late Major-General Elandham.

NOTES BY THE WAY TB! TIM Nay Ji "In the multitude of counsel there is wisdom," we are told. No doubt there is. The difficulty is to find it. One would like to be able to see the wisdom in the order that motor cars shall traverse the distance between Hthe and Folkestone in twenty minutes. That is at the rate of fifteen miles an hour--three miles more than the speed at which the large motor cars are by law permitted to travel.

If the drivers comply with the regulations, the 7 will be in danger of prosecution by tlib police, and if they do not run at this speed they will lose their licences. They are thus placed on the horns of a dilemma. I should suggest halfan-hour as the time limit, and that would permit of stoppages to take up ur set down passengers. The Hythe Town Council very properly discussed in public the question of the arrangements for the fixed motor service between Hythe and Folkestone, and the conference with the motor owners was a really interesting one. At the same time I doubt very much whether the number of travellers will justify so frequent a service.

it will be like a procession of motor cars, five minutes apart from each other. In July and August it will be all right dur-' ing certain hours of the day, but very fre-' quently they will not get a single fare. I wonder to what extent the licensing committees who have dealt with the fiveminutes motor service between Bytbe and Folkestone have been influenced by the fact that it will be a possible lever in the opposition to the Tramway Company's Bill Of course they have to conjure up something in the nature of a tangible opposition, but they have fairly "opened their mouths and put their feet in them by the twenty-minute stipulation. The late Sir Edward Watkin used to say there is no place like a Bonne of Commons Committee Room for extracting truth, and I fancy in this matter the truth will be very amusing. By the way, the English law as to lake news is very unfair.

If a ragged urchin, to raise a halfpenny, cries out that there is something in the paper he is selling which is nct there, he is summoned and punished. But the publisher who goes in for bogus news goes soot free. he were sum- 1 I mooed, be would plead that it was supplied to him from a source he believed to be bonafide. As I have remarked above, if home news is not to be relied upon, how can one believe foreign news I It would be interesting to know how many thousand gallons of water were used in the two hours during which the fight with the flames lasted. It must have been an enormous quantity, and under tilt) conditions of the law the company have to supply it without payment.

Happily there was plenty of it. I am very klad that the chara.e-banca are not to be run off the road. Many people much prefer the gentle jog to Bythe behind a pair of horns, to the rush through the air in or on a motor car. One vehicle represents the rush and the other the hush of life, and in the lazy summer season the latter is infinitely preferable. I noticed during Eastertide that the frequenters of the Leas promenade had not learned the offing," and that in consequence pas not as agreeable as itmiet have been.

I have before suggested that the authoritiee should affix plates to the lamp -posts, bearing the words Beep to the Right." If half-a-dozen were purchased they would be of immense benefit. People only want teaching how to walk. The: 6 2 ger csar ec rooplease method is fine for ligh I don't think the people of Folkestone need to trouble themselves about the advertising of the town.

Some years ago the editor of this journal received a letter from a visitor, suggesting that the statue should be painted." He oommtmicated with the writer and convinced him that the green tint was a thing to be desired. I can quite understand the 'tondos County Council advice to clean frequently. In the sooty atmosphere of London cleaning is essential, but in London one can never see the beautiful bronze green on the statues, which is the result of the action of the sea air.

In Rotterdam there is statue of Erasmus (who, by the way, was once curate at Aldington), which rs the counterpart in colour of the Harvey Statue. MA RRIAGE.

Carlile celebrated his eleventh anniversarfix pastor of the Baptist Church. was a Bible reading in afternoon, conducted by the Rev. ries Brower (the retiring President the Baptist Union), who spoke of thep, si tnnoistiss of the early church, layi on faith and unity.

Mr. T. Vickery occupied the chair, supported by the Rev. J. C.

Allon Young and Riddle (Cheriton), Councillors Young, aiarsb, Wood and Morrison, Messrs. H. Watson, J. 0. Parsoui, awe others.

After the tea came the usual congratulatory speeches, the laudatory tone of which spoke volumes for the popularity of Mr. Carlile and the high esteem in which he is held. a few remarks by the Chairman, who referred to the splendid work that had been carried on from ratrzcommence. went of Mr. Cartile's mi The Rev.

C. Brown ff ered is sincere congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Carlile. i Eleven years was considerable space in man's life in these exceedingly strenuous days, and when at the conclusion of those eleven years they found the minister of that church in diner union than at the beginning and the minister not impaired in power and usefulness, that way a matter for great congratulation and rejoicing.

Be was a great believer in a minister sticking where he was, as far as possible. It was a great 10- to him to come to Folkestone and see the flourishing condition of things there. dr. Carlile was greatly esteemed throughout their whole body and by all who knew him (applause). Councillor Wood had great pleasure in wishing Mr.

and Mrs. Carlile many happy returns of the day The church had had good time during the eleven years they had been to ge ther. During that time Mr. Carlile had done much useful work, not only in the church, but in the town and country. There was no man better known throughout the coup- I try.

They in Folkestone had him, and they meant to keep him. He hoped they would continue to prosper and make progress (applause). Councillor Marsh, having offered to the Rev. Mr. Brown their hearty congratulations on his silver wedding, said they were very glad that they found themselves in the happy position of being able to congratulate themselves upon Mr.

Carlile having spent eleven years with them. When they cope to look at him he did not look one bit older than when be first came to them. They congratulated him upon the good they had done him (laughter). They were very glad that there was no failing in his ministry. They were constantly having words of appreciation from those who worshipped with them.

They were constantly hearing such words as these "Be sure you keep Mr. Carlile." They were very thankful another year had passed without any excitement in the way of prowling deacons (laughter). No year of Mr. Carlile's ministry at Folkestone had been a barren year. 'They could not look back and say this year or that year had been unfruitful.

It was a great cause for congratulation and hemlines'. Something like thirty-four had been received into the church during the year, and they hoped to see a larger number during the present year. In conclusion, Councillor Marsh expressed the hope thappyt Mr. and Mrs. Carlile would 'Pend a ha year (laum The Rev.

Might God bless Mr.

He very heartily mined in the congratulations to Mr. and sirs. Cecilia. A was his third opportunity of being at that anniversary. It was sometimes mid every Welshman had a third chance.

He supposed that meant io his case that he had failed to make any impression on the first or second time, so theywere eving him third chance (laughter). Well, if be failed that day it would not matter very much, because he did not hanoen to belong to the eleven year system (renewed laughter). He was delighted to find after moving about the town for nearly three years that everybody spoke so kindly at their minister. He hoped they would go on doing that. He very heartily congratulated them on the success of the past year and of the eleven years.

1r the congratulations that day would be ee le lter may peers The Rev. Riddle said first and foreuout Mr. Carlile was a preacher, then social reformer, and, moreover, he was an ecclesiastical arbitrator and he con tainly ranked as one of the Baptist historians. He was a man of wonderful gifts, and he was proud to associate himself with Mr. Mr.

Carlile, who spoke with considerable emotion, said it was not his to make a speech. He only wanted to sae for his wife and himself; "Thank yen." The kind words said, and which had been said for some year, were all too generous an estimate of his personal work. He had good many things in his mind which he would like to begin over again, and without any mock sentiment or forced humility, he was sometimes inclined to apologise for services which he had not well rendered. When they talked about him in their kindness it made him wonder whether he was the other man he would like to be. He was not that man.

He was the man who made an attempt and sometimes came very near to failure, and who had number of very kind people round him, who, by their faith and by their prayers made it easier than it otherwise would be for a man to do his work. There were some occasions when it was extremely difficult for a man who felt at all to say very much. And that was such an occasion. He appreeiated highly the kindly feeling manifested toward him by the ministers in the town, and, he was happy to say, by ministers of all denominations in the town (hear, hear). He wanted to express his very great indebtedness to the officers of the church, and especially to his very dear friend, Mr.

Vickery, who had done mach for the church, and if he began to specify and specialise he would have to cover a very considerable amount of time. He was looking over his diary for the year and he found he had been away to preach in other towns fourteen times during the year and he had managed to attend nearly seventytwo committees, some of which were in London. That would not have been pps- Bible if he had not had kindly assistance. Mr. Riddle.

who had been with them and was still with them, had been described and had described himself as a curate. If a curate meant an sasistant to a minister, then there were some hundreds of curates in connection with that church. He expressed his indebtedness to them all. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded the ladies who had repared the tea, on the proposition of Councillor Morrison, seconded by Mr. J.

G. Parsons. Mr. Carlile having expressed his thanks to the ministers and friends who bad attended, the proceedings closed with the Doxology. The Rev.
