afternoon OF hearing two of the most
distinguished and cultured scholars of
the day---Sir William Ramsay and
Lady Ramsay, of Aberdeen Scotland
Mrs, Thomas Cary Johnson, an behalf
of the club, introduced Sir Ramsay
and Lady Ramsay by saving the club
was most happy to have two such
charming and distinguished people
with them and that they were assured
or a most cordial welcome Sir Ram
say has been giving the Sprunt lee
lures Tor the past week at the Union
Theological seminary. and in his
short address yesterday afternoon he
told why and how he started this re-
search. and how cordially they had
been received by all Americans. who
showed such interest in seekers of the
truth and ideal.
Lady Ramsay spoke Of her travels
with her husband and told of the
many hardships a woman has to un-
dergo when she undertakes to travel
like she did In the days when they
first started travelling in Asia Minor
there were only two railways so most
OF their travelling was done on horse
back through the country, stopping
over night in the small villages. While
Sir Ramsay was talking to the men
IN these villages, she would interest
herself in the women and their GUS
toms. Her stories Of the various Gus
toms and habits Of these people were
deeply interesting and told in q very
charming manner. for Lady Ramsay
has great personal magnetism and
knows how TO tell a story Her de-
scription of their functions and the
Turkish bath which they took were
most amusing Lady Ramsay tells us
that the Anne rican missi onaries are
doing a wonderful work in this coun-
try and that The American women dis
played great heroism during the ter
rih'e massacre in Turkey. Her story
.s% u
thousands of people by showing great
courage and wit was profoundly in
teresting and thrilling.
This was the second lecture at the
club this season. and the members OF
the club feel that they were indeed.
