At first sight one would not natu- rally couple the personglity of Gen- eral Sir R. 8S. Baden-Powell, who held Mafeking for Britain, with that of « spy; but that is because, us hel himself points out in his book. "My { Adventures as a Spy," just istued, people are usmally ignorant of the { work that spies do. Let us for a moment, he adds, change the "term 1 "spy" to investigator 'or' "military agent." » For war purposes these agents may be divided into: Strategical and { diplomatic agents, who study the po- {litical and military conditions in the { epemy country. They alse create po- itical disaffecticn and organize out- ie | breake---such, for example, as spread Ing sedition in Egypt, or stirring up | strife in Ireland, or fomenting re- | bellion in Sputh Africa--or exploit- {ing Ireland. Germany had -nuntbers of these agents. Sir Robert suggests that the par- tial failure of the whole system is that the German spies were satisfied j with British stupidity. '"They saw no difficulty in completely hoodwink- Ing =o stupid a, people; they never i supposed that the" majority of them have all been known to our Secret Service Department, and carefully watched unknown to themselves." But Sir Robert thinks that the Ger- mans neglected to employ men of | sufficiently good education and social position, The second kind of spies are: Tactical, military, or naval agents: ment ;and terrain in peace These also make tactical prepara- tions on thé epot, such as material for extra bridges, gun-emplacements, | interruption of communications, eter, There are residental spies, who take up their quarters more or less permanently in the country of their "A few are men in high places in' the gocial of coinmercial world, and. are generally nouveaux riches, anxious fer decorations and reward.

He says that our Secret Service Department, helped by the fact that the Germans thought us fools, usually knew about the German spies: x "Few of them ever landed in this country without undergoing the scrutiny of an unobstructive little old gentleman with tall hat and brella, but the wag of whose sent a detective on the heels of the vigitor until his actual business and location were assured and found to be satisfactory. 1 -- .
