KENSINGTON GARDENS
Anyone knows that it would be useless, while walking in Kensington Gardens in b^road daylight, to look for Tinker Bell, the special fairy of Peter Pan. I,t' would be invisible to Sir James Barrie himself, who first made' the discovery. Perhaps that it why he has been given a -private key to the gardens. He may exchange whimsicalities in the wee hours when _ ordinary, people are asleep, says a writer in. the "Sunday Express." It is necessary tox.be: a person of great importance to be given a key to Kensington Gardens. Even the King and his sons must wait until the gates are opened before they may enter the park for a gallop along the Eow. Firemen have a key, and so have the park policemen and certain officers of the Guards, who return to barracks after the park closes, but I believe that Sir James Barrio is the only outsider—if I may use the term inoffensively—to have a key. He has made Kensington Gardens the fairyland of .London.
