" Worthy <strong>of</strong> consideration by every citizen <strong>of</strong><br />
this vast <strong>Empire</strong>. <strong>The</strong> author may be congratulated<br />
on having put his unusually vivid imaginative<br />
powers to some practical use." Oxford Times,<br />
**<strong>The</strong> attitude <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> writer is that <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
moralist ra<strong>the</strong>r than <strong>the</strong> humorist. And <strong>the</strong><br />
chief moral is that Britain is paving her way for a<br />
<strong>fall</strong> by <strong>the</strong> want <strong>of</strong> sincerity <strong>and</strong> strenuousness in<br />
her national life." Oxford Chronicle,<br />
" Conveys a hundred useful <strong>and</strong> much-needed<br />
lessons." <strong>The</strong> Chard <strong>and</strong> Ihninster News.<br />
** Ano<strong>the</strong>r Chesney come to judgment.*' Public<br />
Opinion.<br />
** It would indeed be a triumph for <strong>the</strong> little<br />
brochure if it could induce a return to a healthier<br />
<strong>and</strong> more vigorous life." Exeter Flying Post.<br />
** We may hope that his efforts will not be<br />
wasted in trying to make his fellow countrymen<br />
* think imperially.'" <strong>British</strong>- Canadian Review.<br />
** <strong>The</strong> author clearly believes that he has a<br />
message for his fellow-countrymen, <strong>and</strong> one that<br />
is <strong>of</strong> urgent import to <strong>the</strong>m." Montgomery<br />
County Times.<br />
** <strong>The</strong>re is undoubtedly much truch in <strong>the</strong><br />
writer's remarks." Financial Chronicle.<br />
**It is undeniable that <strong>the</strong>re are some ugly<br />
symptoms in <strong>the</strong> body politic at <strong>the</strong> present time<br />
pointing to deep-seated disease, <strong>and</strong> for this reason<br />
this Oxford treatise is to be welcomed. If it only<br />
makes people think a little more <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> serious<br />
problems <strong>of</strong> life <strong>and</strong> a little less <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> trifles <strong>of</strong><br />
daily existence, it will have done some service."<br />
