GUIDES FOR SOLDIERS AND SAILORS IN LONDON. [To ran EDITOR

or. THE " SPECTATOR."] Sta,—For some months the Y.M.C.A. has-provided honorary guides for parties of soldiers and sailors coming to London on leave, and all the places most attractive to sightseers are continuously visited. Everything which is done to keep the men interested and amused serves as a counter-attraction to the lures of the streets and has abiding effects. To do our work thoroughly we want more guides. We need men who feel the spell of London, and who in a spirit of comradeship will find delight in impressing its charm and glory on our visitors. Experience has proved that the work will be found interesting and agreeable to guides, and that the men are very appreciative of what we are able to do for them. Letters from those willing to help should be addressed to the Secretary, Guide to. London Department, Y.M.C.A., Tottenham Court Road,
