The Prince of Wales will open new community contre at the London County Council's Watling Estate, near Edgware, on January 18. This is the first centre for re- creation of its kind to bo'enected on the new housing estates Bround+"DOMALI". | London, and it is an effort to pro- vide amenitice for the 20,000 people of the estate. The Pilgrim Trust has contributed to the fund.

The Prince will make the visit La patron of the National Council of Social Service, and he will see some of the 1,800 unemployed on the estate who are to use the centre. A common-room for games, a hall to seat 150 people, a com- mittee room, and a kitchen will, ba included in the centre.

Ambition Fulalled,

whom a knighthood has been con- Major Isidore Salmon, M.P., upon ferred, is an example of a man who has precisely fulfilled his youth- ful ambition.

When he began work as a kitchen apprentice in the firm of J. Lyons and Company he carried in his heart the hope that he would one day be head of the businees. To- day he is chairman and managing director of LORE,

He holds that public duties need not conflict with business interesta; on the contrary, they widen the vision. Major Salmon has done great deal of public work, both in- side and outside Parliament.

One of his business mottoes 'is: The chief thing to avoid in busi- ness progress is making mistakes, but the in who confines himself to avoiding mistakes will generally. avoid success as well."

In THE WEEK-END PROBLEMS BOOK Nonesuch Prest pp. ix. 310, 55.) Mr. Hubert Phillips has produced the boat unsociable anthology" yet published. The contents include time tests of intelligence,crOSS word puzzles, scrostics, anagrams, chess and card problems, together with forty of the famous Cali- ban" questions: solutions are given in an appendix, und almost the entire book is original, with the exception of the card and chess problems. The anthology is neces sarily described as "unsociable " because the intellectual tests (aro mostly severe and surmon the student to solitude, silence, and desperate concentration. However, a percentage of the questions lend themselves to mass attack; the time tests of intelligence, for example, are entirely suitable for an adult Christmas party, whilst the cross word, ohess, and contract bridge tests can be tackled by small part- nerships of two or three people. The book is a classic of its kind and is extremely good value for money, though the general excel- lence of its contents is balameed by some difficult typography.
