We desire to draw special attention to the Children's Country
Holiday Fund—one of the most useful and best managed charities in existence—for there is a danger that the excitement of the Elections may have caused the appeal of the Bishop of London, published in the Times of July 27th, to pass unnoticed. The object of the Children's Country Holiday Fund is to secure that the most needy of the seven hundred thousand children in London schools may have the advantage of a fortnight of real country life. Those who desire tbat the poorest children from all parts of London may have country holidays, should send their gifts to the honorary treasurer, the Hon. Alfred Lytteltou, M.P., 10 Backingham Street, Strand, W.C. A gift of 10s., the Bishop points out, is sufficient to secure a fortnight's holiday, as the parent dr payments generally meet the railway fare.
