A GREAT ST ANDREWS RECTORIAL.

BARRIE ON YOUTH, COURAGE, AND CHEERFULNESS, (YHỌN OUR OWN CORRISPONDENT.)

EDINBURGH, May 10th St. Andrews, the "grey city, by the Northern Seu," was in festive mood for everal days on the occasion of the installa. tion of Earl Haig as Chancellor and Sir Jamos Barrie as Rector of the University. Earl Haig was the more important figure, but, as usual on such celebrations, the Chancellor hal to take second place to the Rector. The reason is that a Chancellor, however great personage he may be, is merely a nominated official; the Ractur. on the other hand, is the elected of the matriculated students, and the students do not let the world forget that. Further, the Rector is expected to deliver a great address known as "the Rectorial, and is the popular centre of all the more interesting functions.

This is not the usual view of the Sage of Craigeaputtock. It may be only one of the Rector's numerous paradoxes, but he fortifies out of his own experience the apothem that "clean hard work" menos enjoyment, and that next to hard work comes the blessing of being born poor. His "greatest glory" is in the time when be was swallowed in London, not know- ing a soul-not even the language with no means of subsistence," and with, as his only solace, the fun of werking till the stars went out." It is a form of fun and glory of which St. Andrews and Scotland have had their full share.

The 1st Battalion of the Regiment never left France, and in many respects the 2nd Battalion were much to be envied. For a time during the Balkan campaign the Scottish lived on the slopes of Mount Olympay, and later, when they' went to Egypt and to Palestino, they were in the storming line at the taking. of Beersheba and Jerusalem.

A TOUCH OF HAIG.

At the Rectorial ceremony, the hand of Haig, the military martinet, showed itself for a moment under the velvet glove of Haig the University Chancellor. When he was closing his speech, and was rather "fed-up" with student interruptions, he suddenly flung out his arm towards his unruly juvenile audience, and said, with parade rasp, "Now shut up!" And they
