Standing at a comer of Trafalgar Square, London, was a young subaltern of our New Zealand Forces (says the "Daily Mail"). An elderly civilian wTio was passing stopped and looked at him. then gravely raised his hat and passed on." The subaltern looked surprised, but when the same thing happened two minutes later he became distinctly embarrassed. Just above the cuff on his left sleevo was a thin strip of gold braid, and it was this which attracted the attention of many people. The gold stripe denoted that this young man had fought his Empire's battles and had been wounded. Though somewhat shy at the attention which was paid him, the subaltern admitted that lie was in a measure glad of it, because he deemed it only just that those who had borne the burden and heat of the day in the firing line should have somo distinctive mark which would be recognised by tho outside world.
