Enlistment of Students in the Punjab.



Among the questions tabled by the Hon'ble Sardar Bahadur Gajjan Singh for the Council meeting of the 2nd proximo is one which is intended to show the number of students “from each school and college” who have, since the outbreak of the war, enlisted in the army. Some light was thrown on this question by Government in its review of the Education report and the object of the Sikh member in repeating it in the Council is not apparent. Why does he not also ask how many teachers and professors of military age have enlisted? In Scotland, we are told, more than one-third of the men teachers in board schools are on military service.
