A Model Cite; for the Ilse of WeBeTo- ' Do Chinese. For a good many years schemes have been entertained from . time to time for the erection somewhere in South China of a model: city for the use of well-to-do Chinese, Chinese people of -wealth a,nd Chinese return- ing from. America, Australia, and other sections of the glebe with a knowledge of modern cities have felt this need, and in recent years several attempts have been raade to launch such a project, One scheme went so far as the or- gaeizatiert of a city at Ileungslaan, not far from Kongmoon and within a- short dieta,nce of Hoegkong. This city was established upon Chinese soil' and by specia1 arrangement with the Chinese Government. It was to have certain customs privileges; it *es established upon modern. sani- tary lines; and its close proxiraity. to Hongkong, on the one hand, and its location in be part of China from which come most of the Chinese in America on the other, were expected to make it attractive. The city has made little progress; however. The latest undertakeig of this sort -- is for the construction of a model 'suburb' of Hongkong <along the raost modern lines for (the housing of wealthy Chinese. This plan involves the reclamation of a tract of land about a mile and a 'half long and a, third of a Mile broad, the construc- tion of wide avenues and fairly wide side streets, the ereption of, forty- sevenbloeks of high-grade apart- ment, teneraeht, and similar build- ings, and the esta,blishment of a mod- ern se*erag•e system and other pub- lic titilities 1. apite ,of war and the uncertainties of finance the compamy undertaking this enterprise has been formed -end its plans eompleted, and work is to cominence at once. As has been indicatdd in reports, inerea,sing numbers of wealthy Chin- ese from -miaow; parts of se -nth China axie.moving to Hongkong to make this city their permanent residence. The result has been a contently in- creasing need or houses for such people and a growing demand on their part for homes so situated that they can be among their countrymen. Most of these newcomers have plenty of money for their *edit, and some of them have coptiaerable SUMS for which they seek_ potable invest- ment.

Soldiers andstatesmen and lead- • ers -of world affairs do not lend them- selves readily to classification, nor even to comparison. Doubtless there will. be agreement that the most in- fluential Englishman who died last year was Earl Kitchener, thief of the Britith army, -who was at the ante of his death, and still is a national idol, but ids influence continues and it is believed by some that his most im- portant work, which, laid the foun- • dation of the great British army, was done when his life ended.

Perspective is lack- • ing now, but the historian of the fu- • ture will say whether China and the • Chinese people were ready for hie demise. Other soldiers of note who died in the course of the year included Field Marshal Oyaraa, of Japan, whose in- fluence was still strong in his own land; Vice-lAdmiral Hikanojo Kama- mura, of the Japanese navy; Baron Kalmar von der Goltz, commander- in-chief of the Turkish army and a man whose work in shaping that army -undoubtedly was a potent fac- tor in the conduct of the European war, and General • GaLlieni, of Ftalre. Two tragic and picturesque figures in the necrology of the year were Sir Roger Casement, Irish trai- tor, who had ' his own countrymen --- --...---e..--- illtreated in German prisons when they refused to be -disloyal; and the mad Kintg Otto of Bavaria, whose life was sadly overshadowed to the last.

His person, bony but square of build, solid, full of a vigbr -that seems to belie ids age, quickly reveals his energy and Simplicity. None of the trappings of pomp sup- ports his prestige. One who has never seen Cadorna and -who enters his office forthe first time has no coneeption of the Modest appearance of the old gentleman soldier who awaits, hire,. erect, dressed in , the rdugh einiform of the teld, on which glistens the basignia of his rank. The frank cordiality of his saluta- tion, his courteous gesture of invita- tion, his open smile, the bright ex- pression of his proud, thin, torment - ea, genial face iiiam.ediately dispel the slight disquietude of one -who ap- proaches a, perscynage in power, which is perhape merely a putting GENERAL LUIGI C.A.DORNA one's self on guard. And before speaking you have a certain ixteffable sense of confidence that opens the way to your fulleet sincerity. His thick ram4sta.che is white, his eparse, straight aair rises from a forehead lined by thought, his whole face has the wrinkles that the cares of life print, but a verdant youth looks 'bid of his clear eyes. .• They flash, they laugh., those eyes of his, and from ththe freshness of a spirit that is unalterablebe- cause it is perhaps the freshness of, a whole soldierly raee descended to him with an atavistic confidence in war. Cadorna understood that to wait meant getting a trench war in our own. country; he felt the absolute necessity of using every disposable mimes at once for a bold attack, even if a dangerous one --both to carry the struggle out of Italy at one blow and to push the front out and have its roots enter as deeply as possible, correcting the most dan- gerous weaknesses of the frontiers, , taking away from the enemy the , passes that threatened us the most. , He made his demands, and when Cadorna demands he is inflexible, betause he does not get the strength . of hie reasoning from the consensus of other men's opinion. He is sure. He, has in himself all the elements of certainty. No objection can move him, for he has made them all to himself already. His will draws things along just through the intui- tion that every one has of his hien. Wb.en he does not draw, he over - turtle. Time the eparse covering troops went outside their limits and little by little became an army, they knit together during the offensive action., broadening out gradually through the arrival of the mobilized fore,ea that were coming from the arteries of the country. Behind the field of militazy opera- tions which are burning, tangible, there went on for a long time an in- tense work of citeation, of formation, of strengthening — obscure, vast, marvelous. Let us not forget that when Italy felt the need of its array there was no army. Political evils had reduced it to an appearance. In nine months it was called up out of nothing. During that long vigil of waiting, while Europe was on fire, Cadorna improvised the work of de- cades with an activity that would seem superhuman if one were not acquainted with the iron. calm of this man, who knows with precise - 'nese and order what is to be done, and who knows it without knowing fatigue. He deserves the name of the Father of the Army. But even per- forming miracles, the preparation • could only be maintained by a con- stant effort equal to that demanded by events. And necessity made ever •greater demands. The instrument of the struggle had to continue renew- ing itself right through the struggle. This work of Cadorna's, neces,sarily the least known, is not the least splendid. It was constantly and urgently,his task to face the peril of disproportion between hia needs and his means. All the organisms were brought to the' extreme cif efficiency, were raised to the maximum of their yield, by a veritable wave of energy and will, of enthusiasm and faith that came down from. the General in Chief.

It also gave a. pauee to German intriguing in Chita and elsewb.ere, and led many East- erners to question whether _Germany was as powerful as she claimed to be. Besides taking from Germany her naval base at Tsingtau and seizing her shirts in the harbor, Japan's fleet was active in protecting the. emu- merce of the Allies and making things generally unpleasant for the Germans. • From a nnval point of view, the good results secured, to the Allies by the action of the Japanese fleet are almost incalculable. baring the first year of the war her warships proteeted the coasts of Australia, New Zealand, and British Columbia at a time when the German cruisers were active in the Pacific. This service was publicly acknowledged by the Legislature of British Colum- bia. Again, it was Japanese cruisers that assisted to convoy Australian and New Zealand troops to the isth- mus of Suez. While the main portion of the British fleet is necessarily in the North Sea and the Frenela and Italian fleets in the Mediterranean. Japan is taking charge of the East- ern Seas and protecting the ocean routes of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The Allies have also been helped greatly through Japan hand- ing over to Russia two battleships and an armored cruiser, which ha.d belonged to Russia but were sunk by Japan during the Russo -Japanese - War. These Japan had ralsed,. fitted, and re -armed, Perhaps Japan's greatest contribu- tion to the Allies. is the manner in which. Russia has been munitioned, and not Russia alone, as it is well known that Japan sent rifles to the British army, and what is not so well known, supplied guns to the British navy, and is still making them.

Japan's help to Russia in- cludes clothing, boots, and nearly everything necessary to the equip- ment of her soldiers. In 1915 her riii3s turned out eight million yards of cloth for the Russian armies, while the Japanese Government added two million yards from its mil - "tare stores.
