overseas visit preconceived ideas as to distant countries and tttie peoples resident therein are very natural a personal visit often proves the conceptions formed to be exceedingly at variance with fact and the condi tions as they really exist this was found to be essentially true in the case of the members of the cahaain weekly editors party who recently made the very enjoyable and instructive tour and visited numerous cities and rami districts in the british islej france and belgium it ias especially true of the writer pf this article who appreciates very fully the opportunities afforded for the formation of correct conclusions v personal contact with the places visited and the- people with wnbm he was privilegedto meen 8 7 ve distant in their demeanor difficult to get ac quainted with antt not warmly hospitable especially v in england is entirely wrong it wavceruinly at variance with what we experienced- alny cities towns and rural districts were visited in the north the south the east and the west and everywhere thp treatment received was most cordial hospitable and friendly this was true with the people everywhere wtt went titled ladies and gentlemen rbusiriess people the commoh everyday folk all whom we met wero friendly and kind 4nd especially glad to make the acqaaintance of fellowcitizens or the cm canada everywhere there was a very jj manifest desire to know more about canada and her people and many were anxiotis to- have information at flratnand respecting opportunities or reciprocal itade and for the ofjiomes in this newer land- r r there are several reasons which okplain why canada is ttvday perhaps more than ever before in the publjdeyc in great britain the recollections of the splendid part canada took in tbegreaf war are i still vivid with the people high and jow and every function at which canadian visitors and british f people came together inevitably intensified this fact tha british empiro exhibition this yeaitm ldndon as taken many thousands of canadian people to tbq old fond and their presence in such urge numbers demonstrates the fact that canada is alrva to the njutual advantages of closer relationships with- the jbocqe land id addition to these elements there is u tct bo added the unusual coincidence that a larger number oforganiied groups of representative cana- jdjians ha ve betrj and noware in fhe old country than before in- any one year these include canadian rf jddeaktca jto the congress of empire chambers of jtji c i v aevenu hundred members of the can ti ditn manufacturers association our party of 171 canadilih weekly newspapers from every svr pkwcoor the dominion a urge number of cana- jlmiilwyora and an equally large group of canadian i teachers these havo ah been gathering at flrsthapd impressions as to opportunities for trade and general information and their visits can hardly rail to be of real service both trf canada and to the motherland in jiddresning our body of canadian editors at ono of the numerous social mictions tendered during ka- tho fortnight wo spent in london lord birkenhead fis- aafterdinner speech said the problem which v y aettleniont today which requires all the bjfy ataiecraft in your c6ontry and mine is whether or w not in close and harmonious asspciation on terms of eqtud cooporation we may preserve the british em- pifbtho greatest constitutional wonder which the changed political and sociologicmvdeyelopmentshavo over afforded loosely associated free and equal brotherhood of great and selfrespecting communi ties if that association is to be preserved first and foremost there must be absolute equality between each daughter state and the home country thero must be no question of our dictating policy to you nor you dictating policy tpus thesp words have comvback wifh us to canada and will not easily bo forgotten they demonstrate the fact tnat imporial- n y lamvtodiiydocs not imply any desiroon tho part of the old country to interfere in anyway with the com ploto autonomy of canada or or any of the other dominions- ot the empire if our people here could bo bjought to understand what imperialism really stands for today in the minds and heartsof the lead ers in public matters over there we w oil id hear fewer objections to the word among our people on this side atttjcj public functions referred to and in private conversation with thinking people interested in closer rojajionsberwccncanada and- the ajotherland apolo gies were freely made for the unfavorable bill specdng preferenllal trade with canada passed by the house of

express ed freely and unqualifiedly concerning the exhibits tio nftrnctivcly mode the resources so intelligently prchcntcd and tho commanding character of the buildings in which they wero housed the result will undoubtedly be beneficial to canada and advantag eous to thousands of people now residing in con gested centres of the old land business houses are forming new trade relations with this country farm ers farm laborers residents of towns and cities arc attracted and thousands urc seeking information ai to terms of settlement and emigration an clement of interest touching the tuture is the fact that count less boys and girls from schools and institutions who are visiting the exhibition daily under the super vision of teachers atjd guardians aro overheard as they view the attractive exhibits in the canadian buildings to exclaim in effect thats tho country im going to as soon as i con get there thats the land where 1 want to make my home canada neyf adopted a more effective immigration propaganda than when she decided upon and carried out her policy for representation on so generous and repre sentative a scalo as is now so comrriendibly manifest at the british empire exhibition during our rttntary through the british isles the speakers of the canadian editors party invariably made it plain that canatla will always welcome new settlers from the old land whp will come to our shores with the determination to become citizens with an interest in the development of the country at the same time they each impressed the fapt that to make immigration on a large scale mutually beneflcipl the capitalists of the old land must turn their atten tion to tho splendid opportunities for investment here and by so doing create employment for those who come to positions in industrial establishments and thus create enlarged markets for the products of those who come to engage in agricultural and garden ing pursuits summing up tho impressions of a twomonths study of conditions opinions and possibilities it would seem to be fair to conclude that the next de cade will see a largelyiqcreased emigration of resi dents of the old country to canada and a largely-
