I'aneU says that “wo may not all think alike upon tho vexed question of voluntary service for ali men ot miiitary ag.' and the jeqi'.isile fitness, hut only a few weeks of war .sufficed to establish a principle which has since, iuinniaieiv. been alnij.'i universally acted upon, and that is that, every re|;r..s,nuiiive man of military ago m me wm Id oi :,poIT is bound to eame forward and oiler his services to his country as a cogeiu example (or the guidailcH of le-ser men. air. Myers suites thill lie has in his iwsession evuieiuc .showing Unit Lowe 'has undergone military training in South Africa,’ naci thul ‘both in houth Africa and Australia he has more than “clone Ins bit.’ iu the soliere of war work.’ But this leaves niumsweiT'il the question why he went all the way to South Airica fir.,: and then to Australia to do it. It may well he that the answer is •business’; out. even if thin is so, how does his conduct compare with that ot the hundreds of young men who have thrown up hicriii.ve employment abroad in order to come home and li.dit?” Hodov Barrett hits just as hard as he did when All Kngland doubles ehinmiion. but d.,", not hit below the beti--\Vid!i', Mwrs must counter; his reply will ho eagerly watched for.
