But there is no place in public lite for such persons and their ab- sence is not a matter to be deplored. What does concern us most of all, however, is the lack .of civic or na- tional consciousness, a consciousness that provides' the motive-power to carry men into action in a noble cause, an impulse which raises men to leadership because they possess the qualities that have got to be recognizéd, When this is found no cause, whether cific or national, can 'afford to despise its most effective instrument, and the knowledge of this fact ought to be a sufficient in- centive to an honourable and respect- ed man to qualify himself for a part in public life.
