“..., or criticism ?
15th June.—Canada. I pass on to this article in the March issue of our Magazine.

To the Editor of the “ Chefoo Magazine.”
Dear Sir,
I noticed in a recent issue of the Magazine that there were only 100 members of the Chefoo Schools (English Schools) Association in England, whereas the Branches abroad seem to be in a far more flourishing condition. It has long been a grievance with me that so very many English, Scotch, Irish and Welsh Chefooites flock to Canada, Australia, and even the United States of America (with all respect), instead of to the good old land which sufficed for their forefathers. It seems a pity. Why do they do it ?
Many of them do it for Educational reasons. They imagine that education is cheaper abroad than at home. Well, it...”
