Alas It Is understood that the brilliant
services of the late Sir Stanley Maude
will be recognized by a substantial
pecuniary grant to his widow and
family. Had he lived, it is certain
that the House of Commons would
have made nim a grant in accordance
with the well .established precedent.
After the South African War Lord
Roberts was created an earl and given
grant of £100,000, whilst Lord Kitca-
ener, who had, after his achievements
of Omdurman, Khartoum, and Fasho-
da, been granted £30,000 and a peer-
age, received a viscounty and a grant
of £50,000.

a subscriber, but if he is right in the end
he will gain five. He may lose an adver-
tiser, but if he is right he will gain two
thereby. If he labours not to displease
anyone he will please no one. If he tries
to ride all the horses in the field he will
be unhorsed by each of them. The
editor should follow his honest, well con-
sidered convictions, and the man he
should labor to please is himself. If he
does this with ability and without fear or
favor he will have a great following and
better support though he be wrong half
the time, than he who trims his sail to
every change of the breeze, and without
chart or compass, principle or purpose,
drifts aimlessly with every shifting tide.
It is sate to say, quoting from Mr.
Lloyd George's recent statement, that
the strength and composition of the
British army is as follows: The total
forces recruited in England, Scotland,
and Ireland are five and one half
million men to which we must add a
million from the Dominions. The
armies of France appear to be in-
domitable and as elastic as ever; and
the steady influx of American. troops
into the country has relic,ved her he-
roic people. of all further anxiety on
the score of man -power. As for ma-

America can offer almost boundless
assistance. Their countries are not
invaded. Their industrial activity Is
unimpaired, and their wealth appears
inexhaustible. -Ian Hay (Major Ian
