Some very interesting impressions of America and its people Mere related to an "Auckland reporter by Mr Marsden Caughey, of Auckland, who returned from the United States hy the R.M.S. Niagara. "It made me very proud of being a New Zealander,' ; he said, "when I heard tlio, way in which our own soldiers were spoken of. Officers who had seen service, both American and Canadian, our own Imperial officers in New York, and indeed everyone who had come into contact, with New Zealand soldiers, said that not only were they the best lighters on the Western front, but they were also the best-behaved. One Canadian officer with whom I spoke, and who was very proud of his own corps, said: "We thought we were some good, but we must take our hat off to the New Zealanders. } ’
