AS It Is Hoped That the iffect of the Sending of Young Canadians to Oxford Will Prove More Bene- ficial Now Than It Did Before 1914. $ HERE is no escaping the fact that the Rhodes scholars who had gone to Oxford University from Canada be- fore the war had not succeeded, through their efforts at the great English centre of learning or by their Sn achievements after completion of their studies there, in dispelling the { doubt in Great Britain, if not in ! Canada, that the Cecil Rhodes edu- cation scheme could have all the | good effects contemplated by its | founder. Neither in scholarship nor | made themselves- preeminent in the ' Oxford community. Their proficiency in athletics, while acknowledged and employed to advantage In university contests, was not accepted altogether {as a creditable asset. They were in | some quarters accused of a tendency to hold themselves aloof from the, university life, and critics who read-\ ily admitted their general qualifica- tions of character and _courtesy weére inclined to feel that they went-rather too definitely. for the main #hance, concentrating where they might well have expanded, with perhaps" over- emphasis on frugality Rhodes idea could have been more definitely furthered by a regard for comradeship. All this must be considered, how- ever, as relating to the rarefied days of the period before the war. War conditions brought an enforced ces- sation of the migrations of Rhodes students; in fact, so far as Germany was concerned, a permanent estop- page by act of Parliament. Now that the war is over, the postponed scholarships are to be filled, and, un- der revised regulations and changed conditions, possibly Canadian nomi- nees 'will be progressively more suc- cessful in their Oxrord relationship. For one thing, they will undoubtedly enjoy, on the whole, a more sincere cordiality of feeling, as between Bri- tons and Canadians, than any which the Rhodes scholars of pre-war days customarily encountered. The very understanding which Cecil Rhodes foresaw as desirable, and aimed so definitely at promoting, has been cul- tivated by the experiences of the war to a growth which, for many observ- ers, makes the continuance of the Rhodes scholarships appear in. a measure superfluous. Of course, such a view is too superficial. The scholar: ships are desirable and should be maintained. Whatever lack of full fruition could be noted concerning them before the war is enough to 'emphasize the desirability of con- tinuing them now. And while the war has brought to light the peculiar similarities of Canadians and Britons, it has no less advantageously set forth that there are differentiating characteristics and habits of thought. That so much has been gained of better understanding and more inti- mate appreciation, by either one for the other, is all the mork reason why the Rhedes arrangement should be carried on. } 5d Modifications may be required. Some, that were imperative, have al- ready been made. Scholarships that of old would have taken German stu- dents to Oxford will hereafter be the means of increasing the representa- tion from outlying portions of the British Empire. The reasonableness of this decision can hardly be chal- lenged, in view of the impossibility of making the scholarships that are available cover a' considerable num- ber of countries other than those of English speech. prevent the German from going again to Germans, if fu- ture developments shall warrant the restoration; but in the meantime they well may go to communities like the Transvaal and the Orange Free in Canada, and even Kimberley, the city © where Cecil Rhodes became 1 famous. _ Iticit Stills. } The number of illicit stills dis- covered in operation 'and the num-; ber seized since April, 1916, in Can- ada are as follows: -- d Ta WN Census In din; census in India always. superstitions and evils.
