But if some of the picturesqueness and all of the brutality of colonial adminstration bas departed, there remain enough elements to chais our attention, if we have not lost, in our craving for constant excilément, the sense of what is due to those who are

DEVOTING THEIR LIVES to the arduous task of producing order out of chaos, of carrying Justice and peace to places where these things have never been more than a name, of throwing open to the world those vast treasures which natine has hidden in her.

mountains,

One of the most curious products of modern civilisation in the most advanced countries is the light-heartedness with which everybody approacher questions of administration. How many men can you meet in the street who, having no training as specialists, will undertake to manage a department store, lo organise a shipbuilding plant, to build and equip a great hotel? How many men, equally devoid of training, would hesitate a moment if you asked them to administer the affairs of a municipality, of a state, of a nation.

It is an astonishing fact that in regard to the most important and

Anang the colonial civil servants there are a number of men of large private means entire. by independent of their official salaries. The fact has an important significance, for it shows afford to live anywhere in the world a life of that men of high qualifications, who could

complete leisure, are willing, for the sake of the work, to exile themselves in out-of-the-way places and perform the realy difficult and ex- acting duties of a colonial administrator,

Although the duties of a colonial adminis trator are such an to keep him busy for about. six hours a day under normal conditions, and anywhere from that up to twenty-four on oc- casion, there is sufficient leisure au a rule for a good deal of ·

RECREATION AND AMUSEMENT.

In India and in the nther British dependen. cies you will find, wherever two or three civil scrvants are gathered together, cricket, polo, lawg tennis, and football clubs; and, in addi tion, there are hunting of game, great and entall, riding, busting, and with the excellent road which are found all over the British Empire, automobila.

Of course, a very considerable number of men in the colonial and Indian, services hold positions which make it necessary for them to live away off in the interior, far from any town; but this kind of life has its own peculiar compensation

An official, for instance, may be in charge of a large forest tract or of some remote districi off the general line of travel. There he lives, year in year out, with no other companionship that of government-everybody feels himself than the natives, no other occupation than the

daily round of his duties. But such men are. to be a competent ex cert.

MOST DIFFICULT WORK IN THE WORLD-

For centuries this view was allowed to pre- vall in the appointment of colonial officials and it is only within the past hundred years that any serious effort has been made to train colonial officials for their duties or to select for posts in the colonial service only such men as appear from their generd education 10 be suitable persons to place in charge of the faterests of thousands of entives of the various caloaias and dependencies of the great Powers,

At the present time it is only in very few in stances that a man can enter the colonial service of England, France, or Holland without þaving first submitted himself to a very severe educational test. The object of these tests is not so much to insure that the candidate has B

One of the great contributions made by Mr. Rudyard Kipling to our knowledge of the world and its people is his treatment of the Indian and colonial civil servant as material for literary presentation. It is impossible to read stoties like "The Tomb of His Ancestors, "William the Conqueror," and "The Bridge Builders" without realising that there is no finer, career, nona "fuller of great possibilities. than that of a colonial administrator,➡Singa fore Free Press,
