Tuesday
Foggy, but warmer. Busy all morning sorting out old negatives,
and find we have quite a number from which no prints have been taken. Must get a complete set as soon as I can, otherwise
it will be impossible to mount a series.
Old Edwards has simply regarded these things in the light of
curiosities, and in no other way.
Went to a Workers' Education Association lecture at
Queen’s School this evening, and as I was walking along South Brink heard
several heavy explosions to the South, ‘divers’ I should think. This was about 7 o’clock.
The lecture was not very good –
early art. The lecturer, a Cambridge girl, was
rather weak, and seemed nervous, which made her lisp a bit. Sat thinking about museums – are we not in
very much the same position as the monasteries?
Centres of art and culture, doing no practical good, housing people who
might well be made to do something more useful – sweep the streets, cart
manure, etc. Is not the time approaching
for our “Dissolution”?
