That was the great problem, and it touched that other great problem, the innate differences of race among human beings. People talked sometimes about superior and inferior races, and he sup posed there were races of which it would be correct to say they were inferior to the average of mankind. The aborigines of Australia might be so described, but with regard to the great families of the human race he did not think the terms superior of inferior ought to be used. when they were used they involved great confusion of ideas. What science Caught and what observation proved was that, though there could be no question of inferiority or superiority, unquestion "But I feel, also that it may aspire to a wider and more cosmopolitan range of ably differences of great magnitude did influence, and that, as it draws within is exist, and the question was how social orbit the educated intelligence of other science and political science were to deal countries, and notably of America it with these differences, and what, modi- may exercise an appreciable influence on fications these differences ought to make the peace of the world.

Dr. L B. Fardell, Vice-Chancellor of the University and Rector of Exeter College, read the first paper, which dealt. with the present and future of Helle- zism." The argument of the paper was that a knowledge of Greek and of the dassics generaly was essential to a full appreciation of modern literature. It suggested that this knowledge should be required from students taking honours degrees in modern languages, because all really high literary work went book to Greece for its fountain hend, and some way must be found by which the modern language schools could be con nected with the ancient literature of Hellas

Sir Robert A. Falconer, president of the University of Toronto, said there was abundance of enthusiasm for the uni- versity in America. The demand for bigher education in America was con- tinent wide, but in admitting that a cer- tain proportion of the enormous number of students "was due to the inclusion of many new professions among the facul ties, Sir Robert Falconer somewhat sug- gested that the educational sky in Ame- rica was becoming too thickly studded with clusters of faculties and schools. The homage paid to university recogni tion by new. professions was & tribute to its character, but danger, lurked in this enthusiasm, though it might not bode evil to the true university, spirit. A greater danger was that of allowing the University to grow into an aggre gation of professional faculties. It should not be forgotten that a univer sity was a society of persons whose primary function was to educate and to extend the boundaries of knowledge. A university was not a set of public utility-schools bundled together by the. tie of a common administration, nor yet a machine composed of many parts. It was an organism with an intellectual,
