Empire Day.
Sir.-Through the medium of your paper last year, 1 made a suggestion which I venture to again repeat-namely, that florai wreaths be placed on the Queen Violoria Memorial on Empire. Day. I feel that due rospect should be paid to the memory of Hor Majosty, during whose lengthy reign the supremacy of Britain. was accomplished and the bost traditions of the Empire laid, to be carried on from generation in- generation.
I shall pay my humble homage to-morrow, and I am desirous of Boeing other tributes.
