Great Britain. All the British Railways have very kindly granted exceptional facilities to members of the Congress. Return tickets for the price of a single fare and a third, lasting from July 23rd to 30th, will be issued from all stations in the United Kingdom on presentation of the Congress voucher at the Booking Office.
Members wishing to return to their homes outside London daily, must apply for separate vouchers for each day if the distance is more than 50 miles. If however the member resides within that distance, the usual sleeping-out arrangements will apply, i.e., that tickets at a single fare and a third for the double journey may be issued (upon production of cards of membership or letters of invitation), from the town where the Conference is being held to places where the delegates reside. The minimum fare will be 1/-.
Stations Of Arrival. Passengers travelling from the Continent by the South Eastern and Chatham Railway, arrive at Victoria or Charing Cross Stations according to the train service selected. Passengers by the Great Eastern Railway arrive at Liverpool Street Station; and those by the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway arrive at Victoria Station.
Hospitality Bureau. During the meeting of the Congress there will be many entertainments in the form of receptions, dinners, afternoon and evening parties, for which there will be invitations to Members and Associates of the Congress. In most cases the number to be entertained is limited, and it is desirable that the Secretaries should have as complete a list of members as possible to submit to the hosts.
All Officials of the Congress, and Readers of Papers, and Delegates, will shortly receive invitations to the various entertainments mentioned in the programme.
Members should apply at the Hospitality Bureau in the Marble Hall on arrival, as the number that can attend each function is limited, and cards will be issued to members in order of application.
A limited number of Tickets for the Zoological Gardens, tickets to hear debates in the House of Commons, and invitations to tea on the Terrace of the House of Commons, etc., will also be available.
The German Athenæum Club has very kindly signified its willingness to accord the privilege of Hon. Membership of the Club to German Readers of Papers and Members of the German Consultative Committee, and to a limited number of German Members of the Congress.
