Talent and training receive attention in Civil Service Tests of Policemen and Firemen; Measurement of Musical Talent; Unknowns in Mathematics; and Common Sense in Chess. Social action receives due in Lincoln’s Lost Speech; Federation of the World; Guide to Epping Forest; and the Meaning of Masonry. A tribute to London leads to the arts: Ibsen’s play Ghosts; Outdoor Sketching; and Life of the Painter John Opie. Summary by Sue Anderson
