Fräulein Engelmann told us last night of choir meeting which was held. They all protested, and said they would remain firm to Pappie. Letter will be written to Committee. There is actually a rumour around that a new choral conductor is going to be appointed. E loco statim egrediendum est. I forgot to say that on Wed.’s ‘Examiner’ there was a great clim-bim about the broadcasting. Of course, as usual, Miss Mary Hilser, who was far above the rest and whose playing was really beautiful, was slipped over. – Went to Doctor to-day to change hour of appointment for to-morrow, and there read some great things in the ‘Sphere’ about deaths of Emperor of Annam and King of Siam, Maharajah of Bhopal, elephant hunting in Congo, airoplane view of endless forests in regions of Amazon, riots in Calcutta, and Kemel Pasha, who has forbidden the Turkish fez (a shame!). The new king of Siam is King Prajidovlak or something like it. This evening I got message that a German post in Cork at £25 per month was open. Cycled straight to Fr. Engelmann out the country, caught her, cycled into town, and there she got recommendation from Lord Mayor.
