Advantages of Britain.
In the first place the^roads are most carefully marked, and have sign posts everywhere, showing distances to and from towns, the nature of the country, dangerous hills, and when nearing villages, notices to motorists particularly to reduce speed to not more than ten miles an hour, and, generally, all the information a tourist could possibly require. The guide books, also, are perfect works of art, and the trouble taken to show the contour of the country, distances, hotel accommodation, etc., is wonderful. In these directions there is room in this country for that imitation which has been described as the sincerest flattery.
