ESPERANTO CLUB

Schools were teaching the language in many parts of the world, he said; a chair of Esperanto had been established at Liverpool University; the number of books printed in the language was increasing every year; various organisations with international connections were using Esperanto for their correspondence; scientists, teachers, postal oflicials. policemen, etc., had their own international magazines written in Esperanto. The members later proceeded to their respective classes for tuition. At the conclusion of the instruction an original Esperanto comedy entitled “La Afero de la Patiento” was presented by Mr. Joseph Major (the, needy doctor), and Mr. Ber tram the club secretary (the unfortunate patient).
