Australian commercial men generally were a more travelled people than the British, and during their trips to the Old Country they kept their eyes open to what other countries were doing He was much struck with the cosmopolitan character of Australia buying. The British wero apt to suffer owing to their want of open-m indedness. Australians were always ready to look at anything worth attention.
