"Tommy Atkins" Enthusiastic.
(Per Press Association.) Sydney, This Day. The local " Tommy Atkins" continues enthusiastic in bin desire for death or its companion glory in helping the Motherland. Now that India is practically closed to him bis attention is turned to the forthcoming Egyptian campaign. The Government took no action what* ever in regard to the offer of the men for service in India, and is rather cool over Egypt. The latter affair is not Tery prominent before the public at present ; besides the unpleasaut flavour of the Soudan fiasco still lingers in the political mouth.
