KEY TO KENSINGTON
Anyone knows that it would be useless, while walking in Kensington Gardens in Broadway daylight, to look for Tinker Bell, the special fairy of Peter Pan. It would be invisible to Sir James Barrie himself, who first made the discovery. Perhaps that is why he has been given a private key to the gardens. He may exchange H whimsicalities in the wee hours when : ordinary people are asleep (says a writer in the London Sunday Express). It is necessary to 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 Row. ; 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 Barrie is the only outsider—if I may use the term inoffensively—to have a key. He has made Kensington Gardens jthe fairyland of London.
