Mr. George George presided, and speeches were made in English and in Greek, The audience was urged to remember Afarcii 25 as the most important national (lay of Greece. There was a marked proBritish tone about the gathering, the Union Jack and the British National Anthem being conspicuously coupled with the evidences of Greek patriotism.
