DOCKYARD TRAINING FÖR PRIVATE, YARDS.

Some of the younger men' discharged from our dockyards make no secret of the fact that they contemplate doing the same thing. No doubt they will be welcomed in any American shipyard, for such of them as are artisans and dockyard trained are highly skilled workmen, For years past there has existed in the-Royal dockyards an excellent system of secondary education. Men who have passed through these schools are now filling important; poste in many of our large private firms. They (776|| sought other fields because Government ser- vice offers such poor prospects. The Admir alty must know this well enough, yet seem content to continue spending public money on training #mart boys to become valuable ser- van to somebody else, instead of to the de partment which provides their education and ought to have the benefit of their service.

MACAO.

The victim of expropriation, You have indeed received a knock

From the most highly favoured nation. 'Tis scarcely fair to play ́ruch pranks

With Companies who merit thanks.

When certain details came to light, - Perhaps demanding interference, The Legistative Council might

Have exercised a wise forbearance, Permitting you to show your hand,

And with advancing times expand.

Whereas an epoch-making course

Hai been by Government adapted, Crushing by autocratic force

A power that would not be co-opted. We live, no doubt, in strenuous days,

But clemency more often pays.

Your sterling worth in dollar centu➡

That was the gist of each polemic- Was figured out by arguments More than a trife academic, Compulsorily purchased shares

Form no excuse for splitting hairs.

And now the value of your work

Lies on the knees of arbitration 1. While shareholders in corners lark,

And talk of wholesale decimation. For few are on the other tack,

Or pat themselves npan the back,

Your efforts to keep pace with time

Were, in the past, a shade belated. But have you wrought so great a crime,

That you are thus expropriated ? - Accept the tribute of a sigh

From one who weeps to see you die.

-Stralis Times.
