FEATURES

In social habit Shaw was impossible outside his house where he and his wife entertained the most successful formal lunch parties. He spent a normal man’s life time on committees like executive committees, general committees, special committees, subcommittees, political-theatrical municipal, literary-historical, archaeological etc. He was a born committeeman. The committee room was his club and his pub, his drawing room, study – salon and business office.

Anyone could say that he was truly ‘at home’ there.

He was always in sympathy with the rising generation, taking their part in any dispute that arose between them and their elders and strongly advising them to assert themselves whenever they got the chance.
