Tlio jirr-ri'iiility of muny iirofrssors
insdiDo! is worth more to a student
in (Oiitact With. them than the
courses themselves. The broail scope
of knowledge, the little skelches ot
human nature that crop out, the dis
plays of the character of the person,
inevitably settle on the student leav
ing an impression that makes n man
educated, that makes him des.Tvitif?
of the title of a college graduate.
There arc men In school who would
be doing inestimable good to socle, y
.vhile they allowed to teach each day
whatever they felt in the mood to
teach, or talk about whatever the
occasion warranted. The late Pro
fessor Ilann is an excellent example
of such an instructor. His influ
ence over his students was remark
able for the fine culture which they
gained by contact with the man. ITh
must have realized that the real edu
cation was not the confinement to a
text but the one that taught a stu
dent a love of the beautiful.
Some courses in school are sadly
lacking in culture, others confine
the student to a narrow scope of
knowledge and leave the graduate in
a sphere out of which he cannot
possibly enjoy the benefits of Ills
education. Time that one must spend
in college, and is able to spend, lim
its the amount of work that he can
take and it is all limited to his
major course. The professions are
demanding that those who would en
ter them have the education not only
of that work tut also of enough
other work to make them valuable
adjuncts to the society (n which they
live. Their strength gained through
respect gives them the power to set
the standards and they have set them
well. When more of them ask that
the application for admission to cul
tured as well as educated for his
work then the Universities shall con
tain such men as Professor Dann who
will be ready to offer work of th,;
broadest nature.
such as the bonis. A surface, super
ficial, knowledge la all most of us
possess. It Is, in fact, most difficult
to form any kind of Intelligent opln
Ion upon the questions bofore the
world today, without deep research
and thought.
It has been the experience of the
debaters themselves that aftor thor-
ougly investigating a subject, thoy
are often led to change entirely the
opinion they previously held. To get
at the facts, the cold-blooded facta
that is one of the chief Jobs of a
di'ba'er. The same Bhould be the
job of every student who would have
a true conception of present-day
problems.
How much do you know about th"
bonus? You are for it or against It
but, WHY? Do you think the gov-
ernment Is morally bound to com
pensate the soldiers? Do you hae
any idea where the money to pay it
would come from?
Stuilenls! Let's wake up and take
pn interest In public questions. There
are indications that we are coming
cut of the lethargy regarding public
affairs in which wo have been. The
formation of the Forum is a good
sign, but it Is only one where Ihere
should be many. The hearty sup
port by the student body of these
inter-class debates will signify that
student interest in live-wire topics is
reawakening.
No one after seeing the costume
and the stunts at the GirlH' Corn-
busker party would dare make the
assertion that University women lack
imagination and creative ability.
The men's Cornhuskcr banquet at
tained the same high level of Uni
versity spirit, which has been mani
fest throughout the season.
THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.
Christmas is just one day, but the
spirit of Christmas begins Ion? be
fore and lasts long after that date
There is something in the atmosphere
of all December that seems to breathe
of the jiy of the coming anniversary
of the nativity of our Savior.
These cold starry nights ar filled
with the calmness that means peace
and good will, and the silence that
reigns with the darkness fairly
throbs with the beautiful anticipa
tion of the ncaring climax of the st a
son of happiness and good cheer.
Christmas time Is a season of spir
itual as well as of physical delight
and, since the very foundation of
life is spiritual, therein lies the rea
6di! for the completeness of th- hap
piness of the Yule time.
The bonds of universal human
brotherhood never eem closer than i
at this time. The greatness and th-,
strength of this tic that binds men j
to'-'f ther in Christian love becomes a p. j
parent, and the everlasting love of j
Him most manifest. It is a beautiful j
Tact that this common love exists in j
the inner, better selves of even those j
that war and in spite of the strif j
and dissension that eternally exists
among men.
Christmas comes but once a year,
but the influence of the fine things
that it inspires among men continues
through the following year.
Contemporary Opinion
"The importance " of international
co-operation outside the sphere of
polities," writes Dortrand in bis book
"Political Ideals,1' "has been brought
heme to me by my own experience. 1
was until lately engaged in teaching
a new science, which few men in the
world were able to teach. My own
work in this science was based chief
ly upon the work of a German and
an Italian. My pupils came from all
over the civilized world: France, Ger
many, Australia, Russia, Greece,
Japan, China, India and America.
We felt ourselves an outpost of civil
ization, building a new road into the
virgin forest of the unknown. All
co operated in the common task- -and
all in the interest of such a worn
the political enmities of nations
seemed trivial, temporary, and futile,
nut it is not only in the somewhat
rarefied atmosphere of abstruse sci
ence that international co-operation is
ital to the progress of civilization.
All our economic problems, all the
questions of securing the rigbt3 of
labour, all the hopes of freedom at
home and humanity abroad rest upon
the creation of international good
will."
We quote this page in full be
cause of its extreme significance at
the present moment to us nt McGill.
The necessity of the task of promot
ing international good-will should bo
recognized by all; and the role of
1 m ram outit importance which the uni
versities can play in bringing about
such a spirit is here hhown in the
light of a personal experience. Thi3
is the best answer to those who feel
that the question of foreign scholar
ships that is now before the Stu
dents' Council should be limited to
students of fur own religion and
political way of thinking. There is
between us and such students as
tl.ese no differences Jealousies, suspicion-,
or misunderstandings to be dis
pelled; and, on the other hand, it is
lie very students who will contribute
and receive the greatest benefit from
such an exchange of scholarships as
has been proposed. There Is still
sonothlng of hatred, suspicion and
fear dominating our mutual feeling,
and Just so long as such a condition
Is permitted to exist, we cannot hope
to escape the dread of violence and
war.
We In the Canadian universities
have been presented with an oppor
tunity of showing our lively Interest
in the question of Internatlonl peace,
and of taking the first step In what
may well prove an epoch-making In
ternntlon movement. It Is from the
college men that tomorrow's leaders
of the world are to come, and It Is
among college uen that feelings of
racial fellowships must be stimulat
ed. And however we may criticize
the minor details of the proposed
plan of petitioning the Dominion
Goven mont to provide international
scholarships, let us make certain that
the students of McGill do not neglect
so great an opportunity of demon
strating their concern in such vital
matters of International education,
peace, and good-will- McGill Dally.
