Mr. Stephen Gwynn, Lord Dunsany, and Mr. S. M. Lanigan O'Keefe, C.M.G., are among those contributing to the interest of the Irish Literary Society's Autumn session. Mr. Gwynn, the Society's President, chose Justin McCarthy as the subject for his opening address last evening; Lord Dunsany is to be next week's lecturer, while Mr. Lanigan-O'Keefe will lecture, on December 3, on Southern Rhodesia, of which country he is the High Commissioner.
On the dramatic side the Society will migrate, for one evening, to the Century Theatre, there to witness a play, Church Street, by Lennox Robinson, not previously seen in England, and the first staging of another play, Captain Falstaff, written by Conal O'Riordan.
