THE INDUSTRIAL RESERVE.
ITO THE EDITOR OF THE "Sriceurom."J
Sra,—We should like to thank you for so kindly inserting our appeal in the Spectator of July 24th on behalf of Raine's School, who are doing such good work in munitions making and training their boys to become really skilled. It has, we are glad to say, again been eminently successful. One of your readers has most generously presented a fine lathe, exactly the sort they want for their workshop. We also received one or two subscriptions, to which we have added some money from our own funds, tho result being that Raine's School have all the extra equipment they require at present, except a drilling machine, which only costs £15. It seems a pity that they should be hampered for the sake of this small sum. We have, unfortunately, given all we can afford. Perhaps some of your readers who may not have noticed our first appeal would help to give them the little they still require, and so enable them to do all they want to do.--I am, Sir, Sm.,
