Hongkong and the King's Appeal. The message from Bis Majesty. the King to his people, which wa sent out by Router on Sunday to the local press, reappeared on Mon- day in the form of a 'Government.

ernment will wes its way to deal more liberally with those who volunteer for the front than it has done hitherto, The King wants
'more men and yet more men to keep his armies in the field and through them to secure vic- tory and enduring peace. No obstacle should therefore be per- mitted to bar the way to any of our young men who desire to respond. The chief causes which bave restrained numberain Hong- kong from proceeding to the front have been the niggardliness of the Government in the provision of passage money and the reluct ance of some employers to gaar. antes re-employment at the con olasion of the war:

The Horse in the War. So asidom do we read in the so- counts from the various fields of battle any referencs to the in- valuable service, rendered by the horse, that many mast bave formed the impression that the horse has been almost entirely motor. superonded by the Generals, who in the older wars, inspected their lines ou prano ing steeds, now dash along in. | motor cars; diepstobes are carried by men on motor oyeles or in motor esre, and one derives from the reports the impression that practically all the baulage work is done by motor traction or man power. But an extremely inter- eating artiola in a recant number of the Ninteenth Century shows how erroneous is the idea that horses have become canecessary to a modern army. We suppose tbie false impression has been [due not as much to the omis
sion to dwell upon the services of the draught horses in the descriptive accounts of the battlefi: ld, as to what we may call the over-emphasis laid on mechanical bsalsge, due to the fact that it is a new feature in the bistory of war, Mr. Fairholme, the writer of the article to which we have made reference, has very uptly entitled it "The Cinderella of the Service." He tells us that though horses may be taking a secondary place where, perhaps, formerly they wars of primary importance, aran then it în estimated that over one million horses are being daily employed |in the vast battlefiold.”
