IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE.
CONVENTION AT WEMBLEY. LONDON, July 15. Speaking at a banquet held in connection with the International Advertising Convention, Mr. J. 11. Thomas (Secretary for the Colonies) said they were not going to measure the success of the Empire Exhibition by the balance-sheet, but by the opportunity it would have given to millions of their fellow-men and women to understand what the Empire meant. Even more would they measure it by the chance it would have given to millions of school children to obtain a better understanding of the Empire than they could ever obtain from text books. Mr. Winston Churchill said that after all the Empire was only a model of what they hoped the whole world would come Though it would not be under any single flag, they hoped that some day the whole world would become related as harmoniously, and. quarrel as moderately as did the various States and polities grouped within the circle of the Empire. — (Reuter.)
