MILITARY TRAINING.
Sir,—l would like to draw Sir J. Ward's attention to the fact that if.it is tile intention of the Government to extend the age limit; for compulsory military training from 21 years to 25 years of age, instead of to 2-t years of age, it is a very unwise policy. Compulsory military training up to 21 years of age is quite enough without making the limit 25 years. There are hundreds of young men between tho age.of 2-1 and 25"years who will vote against the Government at tho next election if the. age limit is extended beyond the age of 21 years at tho very least. I hope the present Government will, for the sakoof themselves, not venture to incroaso the age' limit beyond 23 or 2*l years of age. ' , Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for valuable space.—l am, etc., ONE OP MANY YOUNG MEN. May 19, 1910.
