the Science Museum pressing buttons and turning knobs. Hero's steam-engine (AD 50) caused much amazement. A mild sensation was occasioned when one of the dreamy members of the Upper School walked by mistake into the Geological Museum next door, where the World Economic Conference was sitting. Apparently, the authorities mistook him for Litvinoff. After a brief look at London University and lunch, the School party rejoined the others at Westminster and proceeded to Tower Pier where the Port of London steamer "Isle of Arran," was waiting. Amidst glorious sunshine the steamer moved off, and we were thrilled to see the Tower Bridge swing upward to allow us to pass. The P.L.A. provided us with maps and the chief objects of interest, and the work of the port was pointed out to us by an official. We passed through the Lower Pool, Limehouse, and Greenwich reaches, noticing the sailing ship " Alastor," and the " Dominia," the largest cable-ship in the world. Our vessel entered the lock at the entrance of the King George V dock and so passed into the famous dock. Here we had a first-class and privileged view of some of the largest vessels afloat, and we saw the greatest London Flour Mill. From thence we were towed into the Royal Victoria and Albert Dock, where similar spectacles awaited us, amongst which was the s.s. Taranaki discharging a freight of 180,000 carcases of mutton, and 25,000 boxes of fruit from New-Zealand. And so we steamed up river again, taking tea to the strains of the " Blue Danube." It was noticed that several members of the German class were not neglecting to try that language on a charming fraulein. On arrival the party had an hour to spare, some visited the beautiful old Church, All Hallows, some the Guildhall. At 7 o'clock the return journey was made without mishap. It was gratifying to learn that all thought the visit very inexpensive, and of a highly educational as well as enjoyable character.
WILLIAM THE SILENT.
THE OLD BOYS' ASSOCIATION.
We are glad to report that the Old Boys' Association continues to flourish, and there has been a welcome increase in membership.
Its many and varied activities have been continued and extended, though, in keeping with the season, its chief events have been out of doors. Thanks to the efforts of Mr. George, our able Cricket Secretary, a very attractive list of fixtures was arranged for both the Wednesday and Saturday teams, and for a first season the results have been encouraging, and the experience gained should lay the foundations for further successes next year.
The acquisition by the Association of a suitable Sports Ground has done much to popularize the Club.
The Social Committee organized a very pleasant trip up the Medway. The numbers were somewhat disappointing (about twenty members were present) owing to the uncertain weather. Mention of the visit to the Houses of Parliament, by kind invitation of Mr. A. C. Bossom, M.P., and the visit to the Docks will be found elsewhere.
Members enjoyed the Special Old Boys' races at the School Sports, and co-operated in the arrangements by acting as stewards, starters, and judges. We are fortunate in possessing the services of Messrs. Beale and Allen as Chairman and Vice-Chairman, and of a strong active committee. The meetings have been well attended, the latter part of the evenings being devoted to social purposes.
We should be glad to see any Old Boy on the last Tuesday of each month; the Secretaries hope to enrol the hundredth member this year.
