THIS term's ' 'great stories' will be drawn from the abundant legends of the Arthurian cycle-that body of stories which Geoffrey of Monmouth first codified, which Malory enriched and Tennyson poularized with the Idylls of the King.' This afternoon's story will tell how the first of the heroes of Britain came to his throne. An interesting sixteenth - century statue of King Arthur, showing him as the ideal mediaeval knight, is reproduced on page 82.
