      <div type="chapter" label="Victor Alexander was secretary to the XII Book Club from 1931 to 1940. It is inferred from this that he was the author of this set of minutes.">
        <p>
          <ptr target="ukred-30145">&lt;p&gt;February 15th was the date chosen for the next time and the subject “Books that people have 
been reading”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meeting held at Oakdene: Northcourt Av.–15.2.38
	Sylvanus A. Reynolds in the Chair.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Minutes of last read and approved&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[...]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. The first reading came from Reginald Robson who gave us an amusing extract from “Beasts 
&amp; Superbeasts” by H. H. Munro&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. Mary S. Stansfield read from “Lawrence by his Friends” some interesting impressions 
contributed by some of these friends to a book edited by Lawrence’s brother. One passage by 
a man who knew Lawrence as a fellow aircraftman gave us a picture of him as a thoroughly 
likeable and popular hero, admired for his prowess as a motorcyclist.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6. Howard L. Sikes then read from Africa View by Julian Huxley. The passage concerned the 
respective advantages of Indirect and Direct Rule[...].
This reading produced considerable discussion on the same questions, and spread over on to 
the attitude of the French and the British toward their African dependant peoples, and 
members found something to ask or to say about almost every corner of Africa[...].&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;7. Elizabeth T. Alexander followed with an entertaining reading from Halliday Sutherland’s “A 
time to keep”. We shall carry in our minds for some time the dramatic appearance of Red 
William in his nightshirt urging the ladies in evening dress to run for their lives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;8. Roger Moore gave us some excellent fun in his reading from Benjamin Robert Haydon’s 
Autobiography, and we made some discoveries about Charles Lamb and Wordsworth too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;9. F. E. Pollard, greatly daring, then read from the “Comments of Bagshott” [sic] some shrewd 
remarks about the male and female of the human species[...].&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;p&gt;10. H. R. Smith completed the programme with some well chosen paragraphs from “Those 
English” by Carl [i.e. Curt] von Stutterheim.&lt;/p&gt;</ptr>
