MR. COMPTON MACKENZIE , the novelist, for some time lived and wrote on that beautiful island Capri, in the Bay of Naples. Since then he has bought Jethou, in the Channel Islands, for his own, so it is easy to understand why he should talk about islands this evening.
In addition to islands,
Mr. Mac. kenzie is to talk on an even more fascinating subject. Even amongst cats, the Siamese cat is in a class by himself. With his particular beo uty of fawn fur, with neck, paws, and tail tip of chocolate, and his china blue eyes, he combines the wildest independence with the greatest devotion to single favoured individuals.
