An attractive programme has been planned to make our visitors

feel at home. Certainly in the matter of extending the " glad hand " to visitors " John Bull " has made much headway in recent years. • Those sti:io have received hospitality in the United States and in the Dominions have returned to their native land deter- mined to make it equally hospitable, and they seem to be succeeding. One . particular, instance of this spirit is afforded by the action of Mr. L. G. Sloan, a warm friend of British-American friendship. Mr. Sloan has presented specially bound- copies of Green's History of the English People .to each of _the. visiting delegates.' It is doubtful whether our visitors will have time to peruse this standard work during their stay with us, but it will provide them with. the right kind of mental diet for the return journey across the Atlantic.
