The primary schools gre free to every. one, and in the higher schools the fees only range "from £1 to £5 a year, Then the annual expenses at the uni- versity need not amount to more than from £30 to £35 a year.

The cement plat sented by any system whatever." The method of teaching is chiefly 'by sors, 'as in the case of English univer sities, and Mr. Macnanghton combats the idea prévialeny in this country that generally is not of a very advanced type. He says: "In classics, mathe- matics, and philosophy, courses laid down and the 'help 'given towards at. Hainifg proficiency m them are quite equal, ave, indeed, of the whole sup- erior to. what was offered in the Scotch universities, at least ip the old days before the University, Commis- sion, when I was closely acquainted with them; 'rwhile the more modern subjects--chemfstry, hiology, history, modern languages--are presented by an elaborate equipment, hoth of teach- ers and apparatus, which leaves Scot. land, and in some particulars even Englend, very far behind. There is no university anywhere, for instance, which is more splendidly equipped for the prosecution of physical, chemical," and engineering research, especially in Lthe 'department of electricity, than Me Gill has been by the princely generosi- ty of Sir William Macdongld." It is, indeed, on the practical side that Ca nadian universities enjoy a high re putation, especially ip tir 'schoold of mining and applied science, for, as is only natyral,' the "application "of sci- ence to the development of Canada's great maferial resources strongly ap. peals to the people. But whilst this practical side of uni- versity education is strongly insisted on, there is apparently a tendency to neglect 'the studv of Greek, which Pro- fesSof Macnaughton holds to be =o ne- gessary. for. the student of modern lan- Bnagest This' neglect i=, "perhaps, due to the somewhat low standiird of ma- triculation and the wniversitv authori. ties cherish the dream of repressing from ' all matriculants a working | knowledge of French and German, whichis to be combined * on the one { hapd for student: who are to special- | ize' in science, with mathematics, phy- sics; and biology or. chemistry, and; on the other, with both .Greek and Latin, along with some mathematics and science, for those whose tastes are litgrary.

On the « gther hand, it is quite, possible, especially in the larger places, for a Canadian student to pass {through college and ' take. his degree with very little experience of that vi- tal contact with hié compeers which is undoubtedly one of the most fruitiul influences of a normal university course. It may, however, be said that the individual in whose case such a result is possible would not make very much use of the social advantages pre- meats "of lectures given by the profes the instruction given in the colonies especially interesting with the gossip con a student--not, I am a of the least-cxalted positions open to any human being."

Queen's furnishes a good instance of this generosity. The students whose graduating year was to be be 1901 combined, entirely of their own motion, to raise by their own subscriptions, and such outside help as they could solicit, £1,000 for a scholarship in English Among the contributors. was the Chi nese laundryman, Hong Lee, who gave £10. This is, indeed, "to be broad-bas ed upon ihe people's will." Imagine | the undergraduates of Oxford or Cam bridge exerting themselves to money for a scholarship, or the dons' Olympian sniff of mingled incredulity | and scorn at the news of a washerwo man's contribution to umiversity poses. And yet even in' Oxford Cambridge, 'the parable of the widow's mite is still conceded to be a classic in its way.

It is an odd coincidence and hishop and' viear apostolic of North Gibbhon's chances of sucereding to the chair of St. Peter, to note the fact that the cardinal has now reached the exact age at' which Leo Cardinal Pecei, was elected Pope. Cardinal Gilons was 23rd, 1834, in the state of Maryland. After, spending some time in Ireland with his father, he returned to Mary land, and in 1857, graduated from St transfegred to Richmond, Va. In 1877 ed co-adjutor with the , and in October of the succeeded to the see of Baltimord.

Voice iy everything --the art of producing it not a necessary quality. T never heard so much old-fashioned yelling, after the approved Bayreuth barking school, as in this Ring, 1¢ was %0 bad at times, especially. when Kraus delivered the Ezvahlune in. "Gotterdammerung," that I gaved fearfully about me ox pecting smiles or frowns. Instead 1 saw countenances upon which ecstasy was imprinted. Very evil, too,, was the chorus in this fourth day of the Ring. Why not acknowledge frankly that con- tinued Wagner singing knocks the voice to smithereens whether one sings well or ill? Only giants . can attack this formidable music, giants of endurance. It is not a question of how to sing Wagner, but how long" will the man and woman last when they do sing his music. They last, to he sure, in flesh. hut the voice has departed. Thus the poor student finishes himself by travel, "sees the cities of many men gnd learns their minds." so joetical as. young Martin Luther singing for his schooling in the strects of Magdeburg, or as Goldsmith wan dering by the banks of the Loire the expense of his flute; but it has its romantic side, nevertheless, the sordid modern acc ompaniments and the flavor of the bagwan, | know bound to say, one of those who made a very brilli ant success of of his canvassing--who availed himself of this cattle-hoat con veyunte, quorum maxima pars fuit, to reach' the Elgin marbles in the British Museum.
