Proceeding to comment on the officers, Mr. Hales saya:—
Instead of glory when they come home, glory and guzzling, some of them should get three years,”—you know where.
Then he poured out diatribes and scorn on the
young gentlemen with their eyeglasses, thair laps, their hee how manners, their ci- gurettes, their drawling speech, their offensive arrogance, their astonishing ignorance, their supercilious condescensions, their worship of dress, their love of luxury, their appalling in compotance.
Many a one I've asked why he scatted, Tommy, led, why did you run, or why did you throw up your hands ? I'd say," add
"What's the good of being killed ? * he'd an- swer. E don't know where 'e are,' meaning his offer. I'd go anywheres if I'd a man to show me the way! I believe if Kitchener had been chiaf in command ho'd have shot some of those officers who surrendered,”
"I suppose these offensive young men were a bit frightened of Kitchener, oh, though he wean't supreme p"!".
"A magnificent soldier, but I think Kitche her would have done the work quicker.”
"How's thatF"
"Those brilliant flanking movements are
Kitchener believes in frontal attacks." "But what slanghter!"
"Well, there wouldn't have been thousands of deaths from enteric, anyway." This is Mr. Hales's view. The war, in his opinion, teaches this lesson.
And Lord Kitchener-P**
I think he is another Wellington. Terrible a man without bowels--without a friend hated by many-feared by all-but a man who will put things through-a man who believe that it is a soldier's work to fight and win--or dia. Now the sight of our transports crawling, lumbering along used to make my blood boil, ` Kitchener would have cut the baggage down by a half. Half of the wagons were Inden with officere luxuries-Tommy norer got any. He did cut them down when he bad the chance. Mind, these are no hasty conclusions. I was there for nine months, and I didn't go about with my eyes shut. He's a fine judge of men, too. Do you think he'd let his offeers go luating" about cities and towns! No four. Whether a man was a bolted earl, whether he was cook's son, duke's son, or son of a millionaire, the bar- racks would have to be good enough for him; barracks, and drill, and drudgery."
*But come your Australian, dées be like My God!"-lat one of Mr. Hales's one-sharp discipline-the rule of a Kitchener marti- tional expletives go for once. "I've seen menet? I understand that he was a go-as-you- 12281 go into Kitchener's quarters swaggering and please, rough-and-ready soldier ?"
