Australia and New Zealand to an im- 

 mense number of Britons whose notions 

 of our country iiere were of the haziest. 

 It would be almost impossible now to 

 meet anyone who thought us black, 

 but it is almost a hopeless task to con- 

 vey to the average dweller in the home- 

 land any conception of the huge size 

 of this Island continent. This is large- 

 ly due to the fact that in London alone 

 there are almost twice as many people 

 as m the whole of Australasia, and you 

 can circumvent London comfortably in 

 half a day, whilst any part of the Bri- 

 tish Isles is within a twelve hours' run. 

 Europe, too, is very close at hand, two 

 or at most three days sufficing to reach 

 the most distant part of it. 



There is no doubt that a large num- 

 ber of those who are going Home do 

 so in order to arrange for the schooling 

 of their children in the Old Xand, or 

 on the Continent. The tuition here is 

 excellent, that ever)'one admits, but 

 there are many things that an educa- 

 tion in England gives which are natur- 

 ally unattainable in a new country. Aus- 

 tralian boys and girls have done ex- 

 cellently in Home schools and colleges, 

 many of whom now make special pro- 

 vision for Colonial pupils. Those who 

 intend to arrange for their son's or 

 daughter's education at Home are nat- 

 urally anxious to know all about the 

 best schools, boarding and teaching es- 

 tablishments. We would be happ}' to 

 have information sent on to any en- 

 quiring reader, or direct application 

 could be made to Mr. Baton, the best 

 known and most reliable scholastic ad- 

 viser in England. 



Long experience has shown that it is 

 practically impossible to become fluent 

 in a language unless some time is spent 

 in the country where it is spoken. Im- 

 mense numbers of girls and youths go 

 from England every year to the cheap, 

 but most excellent, schools in Germany 

 and France. Australians are now fol- 

 lowing" their example to a considerable 

 extent. There is no question that a 

 knowledge of European methods, man- 

 ners and customs is of great use to any- 

 one who in future life will have to do 

 with people outside of this country. -
