Mr. Dennis S. Larter, F.R.G.S., M.N.A.H.T., is appealing for The
School Fund. Let me tell you all I can. The idea is to raise 0,000 to help a schoolmaster to secure adequate premises for his school which was closed down in March owing to its former premises (locality not indicated) being unsuitable. The future building "is situated in the County of Kent "—just that. One of the school's main subjects "will be geography and general discussions of the world." There is, indeed, a geo- graphical touch about the whole thing, for the appellant writes from " c/o 359, Straight Road, Colchester," on behalf of a school to be transferred to Kent from a locality unstated, and has a banking account in Huntingdon. As is well known, the right to Use the letters F.R.G.S. is acquired by the payment of a modest ftnnual subscription ; membership of the National Associa- 'ion of Head Teachers is, I believe, on the same basis. Now a poffit of some delicacy. "This appeal is absolutely private and jgbould be treated as such "—and a little-later : " P.S.—Kindly return circular—required for future use." But the' recipient of this particular copy sent it to me instead. Very wrong.
