    Chelsea pensioners .

    NEW BOY OF THE PENSIONERS

    The Royal Hospital Chelsea, founded by King Charles II in 1862 “as a retreat for veterans of the regular army who had become unfit for duty, either after 20 years’ service or as a result of wounds”. Although there are no barracks, a certain amount of kindly discipline is maintained – a fact which these old soldiers actually appreciate. At present there are 367 Chelsea Pensioners, presided over by General Sir Cameron Nicholson, and new recruits give up their outside pension on entering the Hospital. In return he is provided with his board and accommodation, clothing, a pint of beer daily or tobacco in lieu. They purchase the summer red uniform for £15 and are expected to perform a few light duties, but the majority of the time is their own. The Hospital has much to offer with companionship high on the list. For the remainder of their days the old soldier has a place of comfort and friends with whom he can swap stories of campaigns. What more could a veteran ask for?

    PICTURE SHOWS:- George Alderson - the ' new boy ' - reads a notice about the Royal Hospital on his arrival to take up residence there. A sergeant is there to welcome him and show him to his quarters. Except for the Quartermaster and Padre, who are serving officers, all other officers on the staff are retired.

    Locks - The Hat Shop

    There are exclusive shops in most of the world's great cities , but in few cities are the most exclusive quite like those of London . It would be almost true to say that the more exclusive a London shop , the less impressive it is from outside . Many of them , particularly those around St . James's - '' Club Land '' - in the West End , look more like well - preserved pawn - brokers ' establishments in dock area . One such is Lock's the Hatter's . From the street , the shop looks like a relic , slowly design from lack of custom . There is no bustle , no neon, and certainly there's never a queue ; yet it is to Lock's that the Duke of Windsor , the Duke of Edinburgh , the Duke of Norfolk , Sir Anthony Eden , and most of the names from Debrett come for their headgear .

    Docks .

    The Port of London is the whole of the tidal portion of the River Thames , stretching from Teddington to the sea , a distance of 69 miles . There is no Waterfront , as there is in Liverpool or Southampton ; instead , the vast business of the port is carried on quietly along the narrow strip of water which cuts the Metropolis in two . There are five dock systems in London , covering an area of 4,140, acres 673 acres of which are water . the five systems are the London and St . Katherine docks , the surrey commercial , the West India and Millwall , the East India , and the Royal Victoria and Albert and George the fifth docks . The port of London also includes Tilbury docks , which are near the sea , twenty six miles downstream from London bridge .

    Picture shows:- Standing high on piles , the Prospect of Whitby looks out , southward over the river . It is one of London's most famous public Houses , and is a favourite rendezvous for thousands of Londoners .
