Basil J. Mathews , Professor of Christian World-Relations in the University of Boston, Mass.
One of the interesting features of this talk is that Professor Basil Mathews is to speak of a conversation he had with Mahatma Gandhi less than two months ago. And he will speak of Christian outcaste villages in which the faces of men and women, boys, and girls were somehow different from those of their fellow-outcastes in the non-Christian villages he had passed. On the former was some degree of happiness ; on the latter not even a glimpse of hope. He will speak of all that the Christian Church in India has done for the ' untouchables '
(and is still doing in spite of difficulties), as Mr. Gandhi agreed.
Basil Mathews , well known in this country as the author of ' The Clash of Colour ', ' Paul the Dauntless ', and other books, is just back from a three months' visit to India. He stayed with the poet, Rabindranath Tagore , toured Indian villages, and talked with Indians and Britons on many spheres of work.

On the half-a-dozen or more occasions that Mendelssohn visited London he often went to stay with William Horsley, Mus.Bac., Oxon, - composer of glees, canons and anthems and organist of the Asylum for Female Orphans - and his family, who lived at 1, High Row, Kensington Gravel-Pits. The house is still standing, but is now known as 128 Church Street. In the delightful company of William Horsley's children, Mendelssohn spent many happy hours. On some occasions they would have musical sessions in the drawing-room and Mendelssohn would play to them some of his latest compositions. The programme to be heard this afternoon is such that might have taken place on one of these occasions.
