GENERAL NEWS.

The Hankow Scottish.

The Bankow British Municipal Council have not fallen in with the proposal that the Scottish members of the local volunteers should wear kilts.

-- A

Killed in Action.

News was received by the Inat mail that 2nd Lieut. E. H. Kay Robinson was killed in action... In France, on March 28, while soting as captain, and gallantly leading his men, Lieat. Robinson left Rongam Estate, Jobore, on leave for six months in Jannsry, 1917, and on arriving home join-.... ed up at once and was soon sent to France. He was a big, fine fellow and we well-known 15's hurdler both in Singapore and the F.-M. S. His mother, #cit- ing to friends, esys his party was wiped out by machine-gun fie.

Education la Iadis.

The Department of Statistics has collected the latest statistical

| facta relating to Indian education to show the progress that has been made during the quinquen njom erding 1916-17 and especially the main facts connected with the growth of school, colleges, and scholars, the statistics of ex- aminations, and the all important question of expenditure on educa tion. The war, as in England and in Japan, has brought about an increase in the strength and in the stability of educational policy. Although the war has prevented the large development that was. jhoped for, progress of a Tery | defizite nature has been effected, notwithstanding the gentle cocings in ROMA quarters to the contrary. Educational effort, in other words, has been continuous, and the Govern went of India have entertained such strong views about the need of a greater outlay upon education that reduction in a large way was not, and could not be. templated. The statistics are an interesting reflection of these facts and they serve to show how the war has quickened men's think- ing in regard to education.
