Undoubtedly one OF The most curious
features OF London Is the manner In
which men engaged in particular busl-
nesses and professions have coDgre
gated, for some mysterious reason,
in certain streets or areas. This pccu
!iarity is recalled by the suggestion
that Harley street will before long
cease to be the abode OF doctors, on
account OF the fact that it Is becoming
in these days OF motors too noisy.
Where, should the doctors decide To
desert Harley street, they will move to
is. of course, difficult To say, but 1t IL
almost safe to affirm that when they
do migrate they will finally settle down
again all together in some quiet corner
OF the metropolis.
There are many Londoners who still
remember the time when London's
chief doctors congregated In the neigh
borhood Of Finsbury square. which was
deserted for Harley street on account
Of the many businesses which set up
I'm the former neighborhood.. fie
There are many other curious In
stances. however, OF the manner In
which professional and business men
flock together. Tottenham Court road.
for instance, is the great furniture tho
roughfare OF the metropolis, while
Long Acre is monopolized by motor
car firms and carriage builders. Avia-
tors have made Piccadilly the head
quarters OF the aeroplane industry, In
which street the Aero club and the
Offices OF the Aeroplane are situated,
while film manufacturers have congre-
gated in the immediate neighborhood

Why Is Hatton Garden the home OF

Victoria street than any other part OF
the metropolis. Gerard street, Rupert
street and some of the other streets In
