CATERING FOR CHILDREN

. 10 THE EDITOR. .<J iT”' ICJnd6l' the norn de Piume of -U.i-i. a correspondent wrote you a' communication, which you published on lhursday list, referring to the fact that People with children were not catered tor in a certain establishment, and asking if it was not possible some societies would take the matter up for enforcement of service.

As I know of one such place, among others, where the rule is observed (under complaint), may I point out what oc-' curred yesterday to my knowledge A careworn lady With a baby and child went to the counter and asked for a warm .bottle of milk for the baby, and on such being supplied, tendered a silver com in payment. This was not accepted, it being explained that such service was rendered gladly. I wish to state that this establishment and others do object to people with unruly children coining into their premises, making themselves a nuisance, doing damage to linen, etc., and such often think and expect that what the children eat and drink should not be charged for. Therzfore, they have adopted the course of informing visitors- with children that such are charged for, or that they have no accommodation for such. Thanking you in anticipation of your inserting this explanation m your popular paper.—l am, etc., OTHER SERVICE, •loth June.
