CHILDREN'S COUNTRY HOLIDAYS FUND. [To THE EDITOR OP THE "SPECTATOR.")

Ent,—Owing to the decrease in the subscriptions to the Children's Country Holidays Fund the Executive Committee are obliged to consider the question of reducing the numbers of children which we hope to send to the country this year, and unless the usual amount of money is forthcoming wo shall have no other course open. We venture most earnestly to appeal for help to those who have supported us in previous years and also to those who are interested in the object of the Fund in order that we may be enabled, by their immediate assistance, to prevent disappointment to those London children who have no other hope whatever of a holiday in the count/7. All subscriptions will be gratefully received and acknowledged by me at 18 Buckingham Street, Strand.—I mu, Sir, &c.,
