God, Go I"

It is an axiom that a content- ed prison is a quiet prison. It is true that repression can be for a period so severe that a simulation

of content expresses itself in an outward qu'etude, writes a Home correspondent

But if the ordinary repression in

prison becomes humanly unen-

durable, there is an outbreak some- what cynically called a “mutiny."

Dartmoor, since its inception, has had a grim name. Loathed by the French and American pri- soners of the Napoleonic wars it Is hated by convicts and gaolers alike in "1937.

The du Parcq Report on the mutiny of 1932 stressed this. In fact. Sir Herbert du Parċq even went further and said that Dart- moor was more unpopular with the gaolers than it was with the, 'con- vict

MEMORIAL

PROPOSED LIBRARY AND BURSARIES

Arrangements for the perpetua- tion of the memory of Rudyard Kipling in a manner in keeping with his services to the Empire were announced by the Earl of | Athlone, president of the Kipling

Memorial Fund...

The memorial will be a three- fold one, and will consist of.

1. Commemorative plaques. sculptured busts, от stained glass windows to be erected either at Westward Ho! ·Or Windsor.

2. The building and equip- ment

of a Rudyard Kipling Library at the Imperial Services College. Windsor--the newer name for Kipling's old-school, the United Services College.

3. The provision of a capital sum to provide bursaries at the Imperial Services College for 50 boys, the sons of men engaged in the Governmental and public. services, realdent in the United Kingdom, the Dominions, India, the Colonial Empire, or such other boys as the committee of the fund may select. The boya so chosen will be known 2 “Kipling Scholars."

It is estimated that £250,000 these projects, each of which will all cost roughly one-third of the total amount required. A sum of £30,- 000 has already been subscribed.

It is intended that the library shall become a centre of interest for admirers of Kipling's work from all parts of the world, particularly the United States. It will provide a permanent home in which "Kipli glana" may be pre- served for posterity.
