Jolliffe, professor of Latin, | Queen's University, was chief speak- | or before the Beard of Trade on { Tuesday evening at the annual | meeting, and he gave a most instruc Juve address on the subject of "Prae- | tical Education." He showed the dif- { ferémoe between education as under- {stood in the purely technical sense, and education in the broadest sense, |as shown in one whose powers are all | trained, and who from a proper | kwdwledge of the fundamental prin- jtiples of life is better able to meet its vicissitudes, as well as contribute {in service to the welfare of his com- | munity. After dealing with the {term 'fpractical," a word that has | degenerated in use from fts original | meaning of a state of being to one of | action, he gatd that one'of the great- est difficulties we have to face in Tife is that we fafl to think through the problems that confront us. This was especially so of the so-called practi- cal and self-made men. These gen- erally express a contempt for theory. This is often justified, but #t fs not Guite well-founded.

The first is "eat, drink end be merry for tomorrow ye die" and the other is, "I will do the work set for me while it 4s yet day." Upon education depends the choice be- tween these opposite views. It is almost a certainty that one without musical training will regard Jazz as | the best music, and also that one having no 'real knowledge of art will choose the worst pleture.

This was {proved conclusively by the speaker | who cited the development of the {national soul of Germany as revealed {during the past ten years, The spirit |of the German people was developed {by education on during the last two | generations. The = people of that country fifty years ago were abso- | lutely different from the people we {know during the last ten years, The 'scrap of paper" expression that be- came famous from its application to |the Belgium treaty by the German | chancellor was accounted for by the | speaker by the education of Von | Bethman-Holweg, He got 4t in a | history of Rome used ih Germany, (and in which the Roman Senate ré- | pudiaited a treaty calling it "a scrap of paper." The German teaching was | absolutely wrong and it permeated alll classes of the people from the uni- versities down. They taught that : lj | Gerntany was destined to rule the il world, | her race was a race of super , and that miight was right. Theif"s was a straight case of cause and effect. You can do 'the same, but you must know what you want; || the goal of the people, their ideals in || life, and the attitude to be adopted. | It is for the people at large to de- || cide what kind of teaching they || wanit our children to get, the voice of the universities and colleges is || mot sufficient. Ome of the most fool- ish things ls to allow a child to de- cide what its education shall be, and ll | the parents that bring up children in that way are the greatest nuisances that a teacher has to contend with. The child will take the path of least resistance always, as it is the most natural thing to do. You can't de- | | vetop mental power by giving up ef- fort. You have got to give them It | sweat, It is a Jaw in the intellectual ll | world as well as in' the physical if | world. There are certain great laws || of Mfe that are always true, and any- | | body who tries to defeat them goes down to ruin, We must obey the great laws of life or meet disaster. glve the child a trained mind ---- re I ------ - | Yote of thanks was tendered to Prof. Jaliffe for his excellent address. ¢ INCIDENTS OF THE DAY Racy Local News and Items of : General Public Interest.
