At the beginning of November, the "Lebanese Cénacle" resumes its activity for this year by issuing invitations to its regular lectures. In preparation for this, the Cénacle's founder, Mr. Michel Asmar, is pursuing his contacts with the elite—scholars, econo-mists, politicians, and men of letters—to fix the subjects of the lectures and their dates. On this score, we are pleased to present, at the opening of each month, the Cénacle's program for the whole of that month. Here follows the calen-dar for the month of November:
