succeed.

(Cheers.) In doing so they did not believe that they were embarking upon any rash commitment or asking anything unreasonable of any of the other communities or Governments of the Empire whose close co-operation they sought, or of those private individuals or firma who had a patriotically gune so far to make it a success. (Cheers.)

The Chairman said he was perfectly con rinced that a renewal of the Exhibition would be to the mutual advantage of all the parties concerned.

Imperial and (Cheers.) The Exhibition had brought about in the mind of the younger genera tion an entirely new idea and conception of what Empire meant.

(Cheers.) He was told by a high authority that more geography had been taught in the months of the Exhibition than in the preceding hundred years. That was ge- graphy which was going to stay.

While, therefore, such assistance would not be given directly by the British Govern ment, the Dominions and Colonies would
know that the board of management had the British Government guarantee behind it in any suggestion which it might make in its endeavours to secure that next year the Exbibition should again be thoroughly representative of the British Empire as a whole.
THE PRINCE OF WALES THANKS THE PRESS.
The Duke of Devonshire has received the following letter from the Prince of" Wales:

Sir Thomas Mackenzie, proposing the health of the Secretary of State for the Colonies, said that, with the enterprise and assistance which the Mother Country could give, they might look forward within the next century to a development as great as that now enjoyed by the United States of America, which had not such a large arca as New Zealand and Australia put together. Mr. Amery, responding, said the Exbi- bition had given to all who had been pri- vileged to go there a wonderful picture of what the British Empire "had already achieved. It had also left in their minds an even stronger feeling of how infinitely greater that achievement might lo if they worked together with a co-operative policy and with a common purpose to make the fullest use of those rust resources of which the Exhibition gave some idea, and of all that brain power, energy, and initiative to which the Exhibition also testi- fed. It they could combine their resources, material, and system in something of the same vigour of purpose with which the Unit ed States had pooled their resources for the making of a great country, he believed that the Exhibition of 20 or 30 years hence would show something far beyond anything that those who had been to Wembley dur ing the last few months could dream to be possible. (Cheers.)
It was on reading the lesson of Wembley aright that the whole future of the country and every portion of the Empire depended. They had to fook upon that Exhibition not merely as a display of what had been done, but as an indication to them of what they might do and what it was their duty to do. From that point of view, if from no other, they felt as the Prime Minister expres ed It at the Guildhall the other day--that the Exhibition ought not to be allowed to conie to an unti mely end (Cheers.)
