General Pau and the French Mission (says an Australian writer) are over in Australia. You will see them in New Zealand. Pau—the man who in 1912 modestly declined the position of Generalissimo of the French Army —certainly one of the best-loved and l/est-respected Frenchmen in the world -is a glad boy of seventy. He delights most openly 'in finding Australia such a happy place. He loves the theatre, the social rout, everything that is going. He holds' that charming women are the dearest gift of God. When as a boy ho wrote to his beloved sister with-his left hand, he mado fun of his right wrist, then a raw stump. But he wouldn't have chloroform for that amputation, because there was a shortage of the -drug, and ho said the soldiers needed it more than he did. If this man holds that sanity is best served by jjladiiess in the teeth of th\s terrible time of testing, don't ydta think that his view merits respectful consideration?
