Toynbce Mall: Annual Report. (28 Commercial Street, E. 6d )

— This is a very interesting document, to the analysis of whieh we would gladly give more space than other claims render possible. Let our readers study it for themselves. They will find in it a record of much good work, of some disappointments, some difficulties, but with nothing to make us doubt but that the general principle which underlies the whole scheme is sound and effective. Possibly its action tends to deal more with the boys than with the men. That is natural and right. After all, every class will have to manage its own affairs. However this may be, Toynbee Hall is an influence for good in many ways which will relay, and more than repay, all the help that may be given to it.
