RE-APPEARANCE OP A PEER
A start has been made in providing London-on-Thames with the motor-boat service. This is to take the place of ihs old Thames steamboats. The old pier at Chelsea, which mly iusfc outlasted, the war and was-removed, ha* returned to its place by the Albert Bridge. For some years it has been hibernating at Strand-on-the-Green near Kew. where, on the mud, it looked r as if it were to be allowed to fall to pieces like some of the weary old barges there. But notv the pier has been tovirfed back, and with a fresh coat of paint and the lettering Oadogan Fier in whit© and brown, is as young as ever, and fit to receive boat-loads of passengers.
