The Commonwealth of Australia will be well represented at Oxford and Cambridge in Messrs. J. R. Wilton, B.Sc., H. W. Gartrell, B.A., and young Wilfred A. Barton, the son of Judge Barton, who has won the Rhodes Scholarship of £300, tenable for three years. The holder of the South Australian Rhodes Scholarship is Mr. Norman W. Jolly, B.Sc., and Mintaro has the honor of being the birthplace of this gentleman and, many others who have risen from the ranks, and hold to-day high positions in Church and State. We Australians have held our own in South Africa and on the cricket fields of the motherland, and the young men who now represent us at the classic halls of learning may be depended upon to give a good account of themselves.
