Englishman coming home after twenty years in some outlying part of the Empire, or in a foreign land, would be struck with the progress which the mania for athletics of all kinds bas made during that time. Nevertheless, though it is possible to hope for amendment in this particular, it is, in the eyes of most English- men eminently undesirable that we should lose that love of sport, of active burdenr pursuits, which has perhaps more than any one other circumstance or peculiarity made of our people,

"FLANNELLED FOOLS" AND "MUDDED OAFS" are not regarded as apt or worthy descriptions of cricketers and football men; nor is the in sinuation that the players of these games have mostly evaded their greater duties of military service, for the enjoyment of peaceful sport at home, in any way just or correct. No incon- siderable number left English fields for African veldt at the call of danger-and among them are not a few, who will never again handle the ball or wield the willow. They are counted among those whom the Empire honours. "For they sleep for England's sake.”

Colonials are inclined to resent the lines which state that, the Motherland "fawned upon" their support, in order that she herself might continue her wonted habits of sporting ease, the Australian Monro-Anderson has issued a counter-blast in verse by way of assert ing that if England "fawned upon "her daugh- terlands, they would at one "cut the painter."

OUR NAVAL POSITION

IN THE EAST,

Lieutenant-General Sir Andrew Clarke ad dresses, in one of the current month's reviews, a powerful appeal to the nation "to take care. ful stock of its naval position in the East-in the seas of India and China, and in the South Pacific." Sir Andrew Clarke speaks with ex- ceptional, indeed, with almost unique, authority on such a subject. "Let us leave Russia and ber projects in the interior of Asia alone, in the absolute conviction that the sea farishes the true and only base of our power, and that so long as we are secure thereon and hold Kurrachi, Bombay, and Calcutta, Russia could never maintain herself in India." He also examines the defects of India as a naval base, and directs attention to the need for harbours, especially at Madras. Farther on Sir Andrew says: "What I regard as the essential and true foundation of our
