Field Studies A little function is to be celebrated on
July 23rd which should interest a wide circle of artists, naturalists et hoc genus omne. Flatford Mill, where Constable was miller's boy, is to be formally opened as the first of the Field Studies Centres. The ceremony is belated, 'for the really immense success of the venture is proved. The four centres already started by the Council for the Promotion of Field Studies (10 Exhibition Road, South Kensington) are appreciated by members of the general Public, old and young, male and female, and by students from all manner of educational establishments. The hostels and the guidance are admirably organised.
