ADVICE TO THE STUDENTS.
Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Becd. 6.30 p.m.) DELHI, March 13.
The Prince of Wales paid a short visit to Dehra Dun, in the Meerut division of the United Provinces, where he opened the new Royal Military College for cadets In a speech he said that India's services in the war had won for the rising generation of Indians the right to hold the King's commission, and a path to the highest ranks in the Indian Army was now open. He hoped that the administrators of the college would keep before them the ideals of English public schools and would foster the old Indian spirit which bound master and pupil together. He advised the students to keep untarnished the martial traditions of India's fighting men. The Prince then departed for Cujranwala, 42 miles from Lahore, on a pig-sticking expedition.
