LATE LORD KITCHENER.
BIOGRAPHER’S TRIBUTE
LONDON, Dec. 4. A striking tribute to the late Lord Kitchener was made by 'Sir George Arthur, his biographer, at the annual dinner of the Kitchener Scholars’ Association. “Kitchener told me,” he said, “the very day he entered the War Office that ho was determined that seventy divisions should be England’s contribution to the war. Sixteen months later he was able to say t that sixty-eight were afoot and two * were being moulded. A few weeks after the war began Kitchener told me it was most important that the British Army should reach full strength by the beginning of the third year. In July, 1917, precisely the moment he had arranged, the British armies reached high-water mark.”—A. and N.Z. cable.
