PLIGHT Of The ARMY
Much greater measures of re- form than the change in the physical standards of recruiting announced last month are quired to make good the dan- gerous depletion of the Army.
The number of recruits annu- ally required is 37,000. For zome time past there has been $ deficit. In the spring the Army was short of 11.000 men Since then the deficiency has steadily increased. The Adju- tant-General spoke ominously recently of fear that at a time Lot far ahead the War Office night be unable to find the num- the bors "necessary to keep up overseas units.

HIS EXCELLENCY'S ADDRESS
Ladies and Gentlemen,-It is a great pleasure to my wife and myself to be here to day and we have listened to Brother Stephen's report with very great interest. I have seen so much of the Brothers'
work in Malaya that I feel far
from a stranger when I visit their Schools, and here at B. Joseph's I feel particularly at home as I was privileged to attend your Jubilee Sports and see your athletic prowess earlier in the year.
This afternoon there is a dis- tribution of prizes of a different kind, rewards for work instead of trophies for play. Now a prize- giving ceremony "always gives a sense of achievement and a sense of impending relaxation, for such a ceremony usually precedes the school holidays.
