There are many war memorials that grieve us by their intrinsic unsuitability or by the utter 18- [congruousness of their position. When the Committee of the Fell and Rock Climbing Club decided to place a memorial on the au mit of Great Gable to British Telimbers who had lost their lives during the great war, thoy had an inspiration which put them at one 11.9.A. Canada, Japan & Shanghai beyond the reach of all such ob- Japan & Shanghai joctions. No fitter, no worthier spot could be found in this conn. try for the monument to those gallant men. Great Galle, though not the highest, is the best-known peak in the English Lake District, 1 is the one height 10 Chin country that looks every inch a mountain, whother soon from Wastdalo or from Eanurdalo, both of which it dominates, or from the opposite slopes of Scafell Piko, Only Tryfan and Snowdon can compote with it for shapeliness in Southern Britain.
