NATIONAL LEAGUE FOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION.

[TO THE EDITOR OP THE "SrEcTATox."1

SIR,—May I call attention to the matinee which will be held next Friday on behalf of the National League for Physical Education P Mr. Alexander. always forward in good work,

has given his theatre. In the programme, which includes two new plays by well-known authors, the names of many of our ablest actors and actresses appear ; but I am anxious that the public should know how kind and ready has been the response of every one in the profession whose aid was invited. All were generously and genuinely interested in our work for the national well-being.—I am, Sir, &c., W. B. RxPosr.

[We sincerely trust that the public will support by their presence at tfie St. James's Theatre the League on whose behalf the Bishop of Ripon writes. Mr. Alexander, and the ladies and gentlemen of the drama who are supporting his generous effort, have done their part. It remains for the public to do theirs, and spend at the same time what they may be sure will be a delightful afternoon:—En. Spectator.]
