Squares and the Children At this time of the year

we should like again to remind the Committees and others who control the Square gardens, and other enclosures, in London, that, though the privileged residents will probably be out of London and making very little use of the gardens, there will be many school children left with no playgrounds open to them. If the Committees could arrange with the Managers of the nearest schools for the children to be allowed to enter the gardens, under supervision, for certain hours in the week, they would be doing a great kindness.
