Tlfs. EDITOR. 07 THE "SPECTATOR. " ] SIR, —I feel sure that there

must be many residents in London who will wish to follow your suggestion that a contribution, however small, to the fund for saving Kingston Vale from the builder might be spread over several years. I have written to Mr. Richardson Evans offering to contribute a guinea a year for five years; and I hope that others who know what it is to get into country air away from bricks and mortar may feel inclined to do the same.—I am, Sir, &e.,

ERIC PARKER.

Feathercombe, Hamblcdon, Godalming.

[We trust that many of our readers will follow Mr. Parker's admirable example. If they will let as know, we shall be delighted to encourage others by publishing their adhesion to Mr. Parker's plan. Mr. Richardson Evans's address is : The Keir, Wimbledon Common, S.W.—ED. Spectator.]
