Being Englie, perhaps, we misunderstand that sort of thing: but certainly no Englishing, having accom. plished any feat a little beyond the ordinary would go on like this.

In the opinion of a certain authority on economics, as gaoted in the Osaka Mainichi, the importation of cheap labour will be to the advantage of Japan.
