Care of the Mentally Defective: A number of lectures are being given through the country to explain the recommendation of the report of the Royal Commission the Care and Control of the Feeble-Minded. They have been organised by some of the members of the late commission and their object is to promote legislation on the lines recommended in the report. … We understand that one of these lectures is to take place at Bristol on Wednesday, February 23rd, at the Council House, and that many prominent citizens are giving their support. Mrs. Pinsent, of the Birmingham Education Committee, who is the lecturer on this occasion, was a member of the late commission.
