COMPULSORY TRAINING
SETTER FROM LORD ROBERTS. (Per United Press Association.) DUNEDIN, July 11. The editor of the Evening Star to-day received the following communication from Earl Roberts ; “I was very glad to learn that the women of New Zealand are interesting themselves in the universal military training movement in your Dominion, for I agree with you that the cause is sure to benefit from their enthusiastic advocacy. I have alt along endeavoured to get the support of the women of this country, and we have received much assistance from them. It will be a great thing if the mothers of Great Britain will follow the example set in New Zealand of banding themselves together to preserve the morality and physique of our future soldiers."
