WELLINGTON’S BELLS
' ■ ■ RECITAL IN HYDE PARK (Rec. January 2, 5.5 p.m.). Loudon, January 1. Mr. Clifford Pall brought his hands down on the keys as the Lord Mayor of London pressed the signal button and the Wellington Carillon pealed out before an audience of tens of thousands in Hyde Park. At a luncheon, at which Lady Jellicoe, Sir Granville Kyrie, the AgentsGeneral of New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia were present, Lord Bledisloe said that in a convincing honours list there was no more notable name than Sir Joseph Ward’s. He expected that London would follow Wellington’s example and demand a permanent carillon. He apologised for tlie absence of Lord Jellicoe, who, he said, although he was just recovering from a severe operation, went to Hyde Park to hear the carillon. Sir Granville Ryrie said he did not begrudge New Zealand the carillon, but he asked why it was not going to Australia.
