Mr. Burgers read me, too, the draft of his protest,'and asked me it I saw any ob- jection to it or thought it too strong. I said that it appeared to me to pledge the people to resist by-and-by; to which he replied that it was to tide over the difficulty ef the moment, see- ing that my support, the troops were a fortnight’s march distant‘ and by the time the answer to the protest came all desire of opposition would have died out. I therefore did not persuade him from his protest.” It is easy to point out mistakes after the event, and for Sir Theophilus Shepstone’s acquiescence in this double dealing, Great Britain had to pay a heavy ‘penalty. At first the scheme seemed to work wonderfully well. The Transvaal was quietly annexd, the debts were paid, and the finances plac- edon a sound footing The Zulus were crushed at a cost to Great Britain of many gallant lives, and $30,000,000 in money. When they were relieved from the pressure of these burdens, The Beers’ ancient spirit of independ— ence re-asserted itself. Peac2ful agita- tion proving fruitless, they resorted to war,and gained some striking successes. But that they could have been beaten without much trouble, and that they ought to have been, few people now doubt. Leoked at in the light of later events, the policy of the British Government ard its representatives at that time appears a series of bungles, School Children’s Eyes Supply Their = ¥ Intellect ' Defective eyes stunt the mind Can you expect fair progress in school or success in business if so handicapped P Examination of children for glasses is a special feature of our Optical Department.

Gangs of men are working incessantly at the ports that dot England’s shores, transforming liners into troopships. Largely augmented forces are ceasless- ly turning out ammunition and ord nance stores.
