Among the happy results which mav follow the purchase of the land around Stonehenge is the abolition of the present barbed wire enclosure and the hut of the custodian. As things are at present, says a writer in the "Morning Post," no doubt, the hut and the wire are necessary evils, but they detract from the dignity of Britain's oldest monument more than the derelict war-time buildings which are a sufficiently ugly blot upon the surrounding landscape. Not even the most vivid imagination can make barbed wire and a "temporary structure" of painfully modern aspect anything but incongruous in the presence of those ancient stones which take the world back to a time before a dawn of history.
