England’s “Come Back.” u V * . •' AN ENTHUSIASTIC GENERATION. LONDON, February 10. “The greatest object lesson England has ever given the world,” is how the Australian representative of a big Manchester firm, in a letter to the Federation of British Industries, describes England’s winning the ashes. He declares: The majority of Australians are overjoyed at England’s success. For ten years Australia has been the centre of consistent propaganda by other nations to the effect that England is a back number, obsolete in machinery and factories, has lost its punch, will never come back, etc. Now everybody is sitting up and noticing that England has well end truly come back. Once again, the supreme national game gives the lie to the poisonous propaganda circulated iu Australia.”
