AN ARMY CRITIC
CRITICISM NOT WANTED. HOW THE ARMY' WORKS. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, November 2. Lieutenant Sitter, of the Royal Artillery, has been removed from the Army, the King having decided that there is no further need for his sendees. [ln tho course of his evidence at the court marital, Lieutenant Sutor said that the work he had had to do amounted to about thirty minutes a day. His work amounted to signing papers which ho did not understand, and winch nobody understood. Ho enjoyed it very much; but his enjoyment did not blind him to the futility of it. His life in tho army for ten years had only served to confirm what it was impossible for him not to see on tho first day of his service. He soon gave up the idea of getting on. Ho did as little as he could, find enjoyed himself as much as he could, and there were officers who told him that he did a good dead more than lie needed to have done. The system seemed to bo in tho direction of officers learning nothing, and forgetting everything.]
