LONDON'S MOST IMPRESSIVE SIGHT.
"What is the most impressive sight m London?" asks a writer m Ahe Observer, and replies : "My answer would be-—t he Marconi masts on the roof of the Admiralty. Nothing else is at one© so old and new, so vital and so quiet. In that delicate web we see the symbol, nay, the organ, of England's immemorial business m tho great waters, and the almost spiritual tenseness of the apparatus fitly expresses our ultimate power to be and do.'.' These Marconi masts can hurtle out to our fleet, wherever it may be, th© commands of .th© man who sits m an office m Whitehall.
