A movement, sponsored by the Edinburgh University Settlement, is afoot in Scotland to raise some memorial to the late Sir J. M. Barrie. His later years were spent in pioneering the work of the Edinburgh University Settlement among children in the new housing areas of Edinburgh, and it is proposed to start a “J. M. Barrie Children’s Fund” with a view to endowing all the branches of work among children, such as toddlers’ playgrounds, nursery schools, boys’ and girls’ clubs, and societies which are run bv the settlement, and in which Barrie had a personal interest. A sum of £IO,OOO is required, and subscriptions arc invited from all Barrie lovers. They should be sent to: The Treasurer, “J. M. Barrie Children’s Fund.” University Settlement, Cameron House, Edinburgh, Scotland.
