They, like the Boers, have learned to take advantage of cover while picking off an enemy. It matters not whether the cover be a tree, a rock ora kopje, the methods are the same and the Canadians can give as good as they get. Should the British be so success- ful that the organized armies of the Boers are scattered in small bands, as everybody hopes, and resort to guerrilla methods, as they threaten, the Canadians will prove invalu- able. It is true that the Boers will have the advantage of a knowledge of the topography, but so have the natives, and the British will doubt- less secure the services of native scouts when the war has reached that stage. Despite all that has been said about native uprisings, the fact is that the natives are eNelesn Ss ‘Revelstoke, : Greenwood, BUY YOUR - Grand Forks, and: Vancoyver. WOOD EAST END WOOD YARD.
