have crossed the great woodland di-
vide, and Mr.. Swift has discussed the
manner Of their crossing until his
voice is low and husky.
Out OF the ton OF circumstances your

Swift was shooting near Mimrici pond

had fair luck for q time and finally
saw a little woodcock-the late wood
cock, in fact-twittering. Mr.. Swift
waited; he does not shoot birds until
they are on the wing.
It appears that creeping closer and
closer and closer to the woodcock,
even as Mr.. Swift awaited its flight.

bird to attempt to hy.

mouth, was killed by the charge Of
bIrdshot. The bird was dead Of ar

am going to inquire" said Sir Rider
into the possibilities of the British en-
pire, or at any rate of large portion
of it, with reference to land settlement
and the employment of ex-service men
after the war. 1t is obvious that, dur
ing the turmoil and change Of condi-
lions resulting from SO great strug-
gle, large number of men will become
dissatisfied with their former employ
ment, especially at the desk or coun-
under new circumstances, often over
seas.
Moreover, there will be many which
this climate will no longer suit after
long service and illness in the trenches
or being 'gassed' to whom sunshine and
clear air will be necessity. Expert
ence shows that after every great war
there is a rush of emigration. 1t hap
pended, to take the last instance, after
the Boer war. Men will go, and there
fore it seems wise and statesmanlike to
try to retain them within the bounds OF
the empire"

Says Secretary OF State Stevenson
AN attempt has been made to elm
mate women candidates for central
committeeman on the ground that the
wording of the statute refers to the
office OF committeeman and makes no
reference to women for that position.
There is no basis for such dis
tinction. The statutes provide that the
use OF the masculine gender in any
statute may be construed to include fe-
males as we'll as males.
The ruling that women may be-
come candidates does not extend TO
precinct and ward committeeman, be-
cause the statute requires precinct
committeeman to be qualified electors
of their respective precincts, and the
supreme court has ruled women are
not qualified electors for precinct
committeeman"

for there are numerous schemes of
steamship promotion, land develop
ment, etc, which are on commercial
lines, quite outside his mission, which
is entirely on the political and gov
ernmental side of building up the en-
pire by war settlers.
,, At Sir Riders official farewell from
the Royal Colonial Institution, Lord
Curzon further indicated the purpose
Of this empire mission. Most of the
soldiers after the war, returning from
an open air life, would look elsewhere
for livelihood and would not choose
the crowded life of England, he said.
I'VE do not want to send them to
America or other countries" Lord Cur
zon said, but we want them to remain
British citizens. rearing British chill
dren, in British lands, and adding to
the economic and industrial strength
of the British empire"

CIRCLES WORLD
| TO STUDY PLANS
Leaves England to Investigate Chance
of Empire Building After War
Is Ended.

London, Feb. 4.-(Correspondence Of
The Associated Press.)-Sir Rider
Haggard has left England on a trip
around the world, with a mission from
the Royal Colonial Institute to investi-
gate the chances for empire building
after the war. His plan, backed by the
institute and its important officials, in
Guiding Lord Cursor, is to prevent the
emigration to foreign countries Of SOL
diers and their families after the war,
and to direct steady streams of these
war veterans to the British colonies
South Africa, Australia, New Zealand,
Canada and the many insular colonies
thus recruiting the population with a
sturdy and intelligent class, and hold
ing them within the British empire.
It is the latest phase of the imperial
movement which seeks to bind togeth-
er the mother country and the oversee
dominion into a vast confederacy. The
effect of the movement would of course
be to keep war emigrants from going
to the United States or South American
countries, where their status as imper-
ial citizens would eventually be lost.
Sir Rider talked with the Associated
Press Just before starting on his trip.
While he is one of the interesting lit
erary figures of England, he is, besides.
a justice of the peace of his home town
in Norfolk and student on land set
Element, unemployment and agricul-
ture. and this qualification led to his
choice as commissioner for the royal
