" RECREATION " : A MAGAZINE FOR THE BLIND.
[To TIM EDITOR OP THE "SPECTATOR:]
SIR,—May I have a few words about my magazine for the blind in your paper ? It is just being enlarged by the British and Foreign Blind Association (the charity which brings it out), whch has issued the subjoined statement. I have nothing to do with the sale, my work being simply the editing. The Association are enlarging the magazine at their own cost. There is a magazine for children, too, called Playtime.—I am, Sir, &c., FLORENCE NEVUS,. 6 The Drive, W. Brighton.
“Nomrct.—The Editress of Recreation has decided to double the size of the Magazine, so that in future there will be 66 pages instead of 32 as heretofore. The subscription will only be raibed Is. for Inland and 3s. for Abroad, this being merely to cover the extra postage which will be incurred. Thus Recreation will probably become the cheapest Magazine pnbhshed in the Braille type. The enlargement will enable the Editress to insert serial novels of an interesting nature. The first serial chosen for the enlarged Magazine is Gospel Writ in Steel,' by the author of 'Cromwell's Own,' and the first part appears in the January issue. An extra number of Recreation for December, con- taining the completion of Timethy's Quest' and The Romance of a Lost Purse,' can be had of the British and Fsreign Blind Aseotiation, pries post free, is. 6d. Inland, eq. Abroad. Sub- seripti 118 for 1902 should reach 33 Cambridge Square on or before January 7th."
