New Zealanders have become accustomed to helps told that persons living any further abroad than in Australia think that this country is either part of Australia or else is successfully tucked away mysteriously in the Pacific. Even two American university debaters who are coining to the Dominion to debate against our university colleges do not appear to be very clear about New Zealand ■ geography. A cable to those arranging the tour at the Otago University was addressed to “Otago, Dunedin.’* Apparently a knowledge of details about the Dominion is not part of the test that university students in America have to pass before they come to debate against us.
