FASHIONS IN CHILDREN.

The Hum. A. Davey, Liberal candidate for the Guildford division, having alleged that Lord Roberts appeared to advocate and that the subject of compulsory service was being made a party one, Lord Roberta has addressed a letter, dated December 19, to the Surrey Advertiser, in which he says:-
"I have never advocated conscription on the Continental plan. My idea and that of the National Service League is a democratic defence force on the lines of ARK INCORPORATED the Australian and New Zealand Militias; such a force, in fact, as the application of the principle of universal training to tho Territorial Force would give us.

By all accounts, there are to be many novelties at the Sun Francisco Panama Exposition.
Among these much may be said for the modernNomh's Ark," which is certainly entitled to a good place in any pageant illustrating the world's water craft.
Like the original, the vessel is to con tain animals in pairs, birds, beasts, reptiles, and fishes
The chief difference from its prototype will be that it will be fitted out with Diesel crude oil burning engines and will have a speed (projected) of twelve knots."
"I have never advocated National Service League principles, or any form of compulsory service, as a party political nialter. In fact, I have always taken the greatest care to point out that questions of national defence must be national and not party questions
I think the cause
of national service would suffer incalcul. ably if one party took it up to the exclusion of the other."
