many many thousands of unlver-
/ sity students count upon the tenn
porary work they get during the
holidays to meet the bill for the next
seasons studies. Lord Derby has no"
issued q special appeal on behalf of
the same classes in Great Britain. The
Irish Independent has consistently
pleaded fer an arrangement Whereby
undergraduates could during the long
vacation get some practical experience
of the professions they expect to enter.
The difficulties of giving such expert
ence to the students of engineering,
commerce and science are admittedly
more considerable than the difficulties
of giving hospital practice to students
of medicine and dentistry, but they are
not insuperable. Efforts to solve this
problem, in so far as 1t touches stu
dents of commerce, have been made
with some success in few colleges OF
the National University. We see no
reasons why the principle could not be
largely extended with the help of state
and municipal undertakings, which now
play such a large part in commerce,
manufacturing and engineering.
Rugby Match
Aids Good Feeling.
Evening Post, Wellington. greater
crowd than that which gained admis-
sion to Athletic Park for the rugby
match, Great Britain VS.. Wellington,
has ever been present at a game in
New Zealand. The attendance was
fully $4,000 and the game a clean, Wig
orous exhibition Of sport for sports
sake Each team toasted the other
before the contest, and all the spec
tators concurred in the opinion of Dr.
p. P. McEvedy, president of the We'll
lington Rugby Union, who introduced
the British team as 'the finest that
had ever visited the dominion" both
gentlemen and sportSmen on and on
the field. The prime minister, the Hen.
G. w. Forbes. said at q reception to
the visiting team in the evening: Sit
ting in the stand at the beginning OF
the match, ! thought as the first
five points went up that we were in
for a beating, and I knew that was
to come along here tonight and would
probably be asked to say something. l
began to consider how could speak
gracefully Of the result. I worked out
the theory that for many years we have
been sending home all the best OF our
butter and cheese and frozen meat, and
that the British team on that account
should be expected to do well. But
when New Zealand won, after all, I
could only account for that pleasant
reversal by saying that our men were
closer to the source of supply"

Germans Friendly
To French Ill Treated.
lie Matin, Paris.-Not all Germans
resented the French occupations of the
Rhine region, terminated recently. There
were many. particularly at Mayence
(Mainz), who were very friendly With
the French troops. Needless TO say,
this more understanding and sympa-
thetic element were the objects of much
hostility upon the part of the pan
Germans, who made heavy reprisals
upon such Of their fellow citizens as
were willing to justify the occupation
from economic and socialistic stand
points. Shops were wrecked, homes
were invaded. We publish one photo
graph which shows most vivldly the
havoc sustained by one German who
valued conscientious adherence to in
ternational principle above q nominal
party obligation. Such an act OF
brigandage, rather than showing any
default in the one who suffered it, re-
fleets but black disgrace upon the jus
tifers" who were guilty Of the outrage.
