THE SERVANT PROBLEM.
[To THE EDITOR OF THE " SPECTATOR."]
Sur,—Perhaps your recent correspondents are delicate people. If so, they have my sincere sympathy. These are great days for all manner of organization. The word " service," too, is oft in the ear. Is this, after all, merely lip service? If not. why, what an opportunity for those hearty, fit young women of no apparent regular occupation, and much leisure for hockey, tennis and golf, to form a " League of Assistance" for the weaker of their sex! The poor woman lacking means to pay for help wills herself to the task till, too often, the body breaks. If, then, any of your correspondents are healthy and strong, and the flesh-and-blood mart gives no response to cash, why not face the same problem with an equal courage?—I am, Sir, &c.,
A SERVANT'S BROTHER.
