Preaching at the church parade of the Ordnance Battalion at Lyttelton on Sunday, Chaplain-Colonel E. K. Chambers said that one of the " thorough" men of the day was the German .Emperor, who had been wideawake enough to " get ahead" of England to such an extent as to* give rise to the situation with which the world was familiar to-day. Dwelling on the .Anglo-Ger-man position, ho said that each men as General. Pole-Carcw, Lord Roberts, and Lord Beresford had done their best to make England realise her peril. It was advisable that the soldiers of New Zealand should all carry out some of the work done by those men," in stirring up a feeling of patriotism and a, realisation of, the needs of the situation.. By such general personal effort the people could be brought to realise the dangers by which they were threatened, and which might descend upon them at any time.
