JOTTINGS.
A New Zealand trooper in Egypt writes on the margin of a newspaper sent to a Christchurch friend-.—" More troops just arrived. Total in camp here, 180,000. This shows that John Bull is taking no risks."
At the Wanganui racecourse a "refresher" camp is in progress, 300 officers and non-commissioned officers and cadets from the Wellington military district area being under canvas in charge of Major Morrison and staff officers. Favoured by good weather conditions a strenuous training programme is being carried out.
