Jan Smuts, being a character sketch of Genthe HonJ.CSmuts, K.C., M.L.A., Minister of Defence, Union of South Africa . ts sides, full of terrifyingwaterfalls, but offering shady nooks, beautiful aspects, gorgeous orchids. Smuts would be superhuman if inden-tations had not been cut into the substance of his self by 3IO JAN SMUTS the blizzards that have raged on his crown. And thereare other points of identity. One must stand at a distancefrom Table Mountain before one can see on its fiat topthe eminence that is its highest point. We are too closeto our mountain to appreciate its altitude. None can tell what fate may have in store for SouthAfrica and for Jan Smuts. But of this one fact I am verysure—come fine, come wet, the generation that has knownhim face to face will give him this epitaph when the in-evitable day arrives :— He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon his like again.
