LORD KITCHENER’S VISIT.
Lord Kitchener has already given proof of the practical character which had made him the great military organiser of the Empire. He is neither making speeches nor wasting his time in ceremonial reviews. As he has commenced in Queensland, so he will continue throughout Australia and New Zealand. 'There is altogether too much inclination to treat our volunteers as though they were a mere “ show,” and to call them from their work or theii leisure merely to march and parade for officials and visitors. If Lord Kitchener helps to stop this undesirable practice, says the New Zealand Herald, and to promote the idea that our men are trained for a patriotic and not a spectacular purpose, he will set the universal training scheme on its way with a fair prospect of success.
