that the fanciful toggery which wins ad-

not the thing for a battlefield. So things
have been changed. Nowadays when the
British soldier goes forth to war he slows
his gay uniform in the home barracks
and gets into khaki. which is durable.

made fine marks. "Rooi battle" is Boer
for red coat.

done so much long distance shooting.
Instead Of distinctly marked lines Of red
