warfare, beautiful shells, curios, stuffed birds, and birds' eggs. Some of the War Relies are noteworthy, especially four little shells from Anzac Beach, where so many of our brave lads laid down their lives for the Empire. These shells have been placed in a little case, and are rightly regarded as the most precious relic in the Museum. Then some good specimens of the Reptilia of Palestine—a black-headed snake among them—form quite a fascinating contribution to this group.
No further description need be attempted, but an inspection of the Museum and its different objects of interest is invited. If the Museum is to attain its fullest usefulness, it should be housed in a special room. Under present circumstances this is out of the question, but the writer of these few notes lives in the hope that some day an old boy, when his ship with the golden sails comes winging into harbour, will show his love for his old school by giving a sufficient sure to build this much-needed room—one worthy ' of his generosity and of the fine school to which it will be an adjunct.
