KITCHENER’S WORK.
TRIBUTE BY PRINCE,
LONDON, Juno 9,
“It may justly be surmised that, had the span of Lord Kitchener’s life been even a» little extended, the forger of the great weapon of war would have been a great architect of peace,” said tho Prince of "Wales, when unveiling a bronze statue on the Horse Guards Parade, of Britain’s great military figure. 9 “He belongs to tho small group of famous men who grow in stature as they recede into history. Alone, he stood forward and pronounced at the outset of the war that a vast transformation of the nation’s resources was vitally _ necessary, and, to England’s undying glory, _Lor.d Kitchener proved it possible.”
