THE ANZACS IN LONDON.
London, September 24. "One of the features of the day is the presence of so many Australian and New Zealand soldierg in the streets of London, chiefly convalescents from the Dardanelles," says the London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian. "They are conspicuous in sun helmets and a lightish brown hospital uniform, which distinguishes them from the invalided soldiers from these islands in their light blue. The f Anzae,' as they are popularly called, are both delightful and delighted. Their good spirits are enormous. They admire our famous buildings and the size and characteristic sights of 'London in the frankest way, and in word are more like a pack of careless schoolboys than anything else. It is singular how many of them have found friends and relatives in London itself and the suburbs. In fact, in suburbia one bounds up at once in the social scale if one can claim rights in ft genuine Anzao,"
