ANA and it's President that the fallacy Of the

a period of perhaps thirty days all the time be-
yond reach. might have been regarded as an OBJ
stacle. Nowadays such hindrances no longer
exist. With ocean greyhounds crossing the At

ENGLAND s KING AS EXAMPLE.

OF the benefits TO be derived from personal
intercourse among rulers has furnished
more striking Illustrations than Edward VII.
At the time of his accession the antagonisrn In
France against England was very great and or
two occasions at least during the last decade
of the reign of Queen Victoria the two nations
were on the brink OF war. II France has been
converted from a covert foe into a stanch and
loyal friend. if. in word. entente cordiale
has been established which is nothing short OF
an alliance. il has been accomplished almost
wholly and entirely by King Edwards visits to
the banks OF the Seine. by his intercourse with
the chief magistrates and leading statesmen OF
France and by the attentions which he iavished
upon them when they made their return visits
10 him in London. When 10 first went TO Paris
after his accession his welcome by the Official
world was merely formal. while the public
showed itself cold that fears were entertained
OF a popular manifestation against him. To-day
he is of all foreign rulers. the most popular and
the most welcome in Paris where by dint OF
personal intercourse he has succeeded In con-
Yincing the people and their rulers that de-
ship and that the days past and gone when
Great Britain justified IN Gallo eyes her name

As TO the honors with which the President
who by means OF wireless telegraphy could re-
main In touch with Washington at every hour
throughout the "trip across the ocean-would DO
received in Europe. they would undoubtedly be
similar to those accorded to the presidents OF
the French Republic when they have visited St
Petersburg. London. Rome and Madrid. and TO
those with which France has welcomed the
Czar. Edward VII and Victor Emmanuel III
TO Paris. Still more cordial than the official re-
ception would be that given to the Chief Magis-
trate OF the United States by the people Of
these foreign countries TO So many Of whom

Use. Their welcome would he characterized by
