MR. HANSON'S MISSION.

Says Melbourne Table Talk, a weekly illustrated journal: Mr, J. H. Maiison, the New Zealand rradc Commissioner, has kept the flag of the island Dominion well aloft in Melbourne during the war. In regard to the tourist traffic, his might have been a difficult role to play at this juncture, for holiday talk and sentiment are not encouraged. But Mr. Manson, a patriot to his finger-tips, is also a diplomat. He has excellent social influence and where he finds people lamenting the loss of European markets or a European tour, he neatly insinuates God's own Qountry into the view line as a neighbouring British country and one full of business opportunity and tho charm of gorgeous scenery. He scores all the time.
