Godden, at the 24th Philatelic Congress of Great Britain, recently. “My chief recollection of early stampcollecting days was the desire to obtain a. larger , number of different stamps than any of my friends, and I am certain that all my boy friends had the same object In view,” continued Mr. Godden.
