"TREASURE ISLAND "

[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.] SIR,—On a recent visit to Wembley I with many others enjoyed the spectacle of, happy children playing among the delights of " Treasure Island." Only a child-lover could have conceived such a child paradise. It would be sad and wasteful if, • when Wembley closes, " Treasure -Island " should be dis- mantled and destroyed. May I suggest that steps should be taken now to find a new home for " Treasure Island " before it is too late ? Could it not be rebuilt in Battersea Park, and so continue to delight the hearts and stir the imaginations of hundreds of our little fellow-citizens, who crave, without knowing it, for more romance in their lives ?—I am, Sir, &c.,
