On Wednesday the Lord Mayor presided at a meeting, at

the Mansion House to open an endowment fund for Stowe School. Applications are being received from all over the Empire. The school will at first provide accom, modation for 200 boys, but it is hoped ultimately to increase this to 600. Hence an endowment fund of from £150,000 to £200,000 is to be raised. Our readers will join with us in wishing every success to this most desirable of ventures. Contributions will be received by Lord Gisborough, 76 Eccleston Square, S.W. 1.
