CHARLES LAMB’S SCHOOL
Christ’s Hospital, the famous Bluecoat School where Charles Lamb and many other illustrious Englishmen went as poor boys, is the happy possessor of some fine new buildings. A block of science workshops and a quadrangle have been added to the school at Horsham. The chief aim of the donors is to educate the boys in scientific agriculture. On the flat roof experimental work will be carried on under glass: In ornamental waters in the quadrangle, aouatic plants are to be grown for study, and the 300-year-old Amicable Society of Blues, to which the old boys belong, has given a lead cast of Verrocchio’s Boy, with a Dolphin to watch over this pleas ant scene.
