Liebestraume - a selection of the world's love songs
This popular organist, son of the well-known writer of sea-stories, Captain Frank H. Shaw, who wrote a number of radio plays in the old Savoy Hill days, was a school-master at a preparatory school at St. Leonards-on-Sea for four years and studied music there under Dr. W.H. Speer, Roy Speer's father.
His first appointment as a theatre organist was to the Regal, St. Leonards-on-Sea, in 1932. From 1933 to 1936 he was at the Regal, Glasgow, and he was appointed to the Glasgow Paramount two years ago.

Sir StClair Thomson, M.D., F.R.C.S.
Sir StClair Thomson was for years one of Lister's house-surgeons, and recalls vividly not only the skill but the character of one whom he describes as 'the greatest man I have ever known, and one of the greatest benefactors of humanity.'
Indeed, declares Sir StClair, the history of medicine and surgery may be divided into two periods - before Lister and after Lister.
