NATIONAL DEFENCE.

uuii'ULaony training advuCATKD, liIS1101"S LOGICAL IiEMAHKS. Heceived 1 itil, 0.42 a.m. Sydney, March IU. Bishop Stretch, in an opening address to the Anglican Synod at Newcastle, and dealing with questions of national defence, said thai if the community expected in time of danger all able-bodied men to rally to the country's call, it became the duty to give to such men the training in arms as should save their courage from being mere suicide. He believed training could be planned to do away with larrikinism and add to the physique of the race. "We do not wish if war comes," he said, "to see our manhood die for lack of knowledge, so it seems to me universal training may well be regarded by the Christian man as th<j strongest assurance that we shall not be attacked."
