INDIAN MILITARY COLLEGE.
OPENED BY THE PRINCE. Delhi, March, 13.—The Prince of Wales paid a short visit to Dehira Dan, where he opened the Royal Military College for cadets. In his speech he said that India’s services in the war had won for the rising generation the right to hold the King’s commission, and the path to the highest ranks the Indian army now open. Ho hoped the administrators of the college would keep before them the ideals of the English public schools, and would also foster the old Indian spirit, which bound master and pupil together. He advised the students to maintain untarnished the martial traditions of India’s fighting men. The Prince then reviewed the forces, and departed for Gujranwala, for a pig-sticking expedition.
