AN EXAMINATION.

Almost twenty-five years have passed since the election of the first group of Rhodes. Scholars, and there has recently been consider. able criticisma of the scheme, especially in Amerien. Four charges are so frequently met with that they deserve to be examined with care.

BASED ON GALLIPOLI CAMPAIGN.

There is a possibility, writes a correspondent in a Home paper, of Sir Ian Hamilton appearing in the sew British War film based on the Gallipoli campaign. Sir Ian is en- thusiastic about the undertaking.

This film will be adapted to the story of "Tell England," by Mr. Ernest Raymond. who.ishortly having for Malta in connection with the operations.

The three bills reparted to hayo been cashed at a lobul bank are in pesos, not in dollars as previously reported.

These are the salient develop ments in the report that counter Leit money is ia actual circulation here.

An Alien Environment, It is frequently said that young men of the Dominions, or America on arriving in Oxford find themselves in an alien environment, and one of two results follows, both undesirable and both destructive of the purpose Rhodes had in mind. Either these men find Oxford strange and uncongenial, or else

to

The most serious charge brought against the sebeme is that a vast amount of money has been spent on the education of many hundreds of Rhodes Scholars, and that the British Empire and the United States have to-day very little show for it. Scarcely any of the scholars, it is argued, occupy posi. tions of importance or have any appreciable influence on the lives of their own countries. This, if true, would be a very serious charge, but it is more than doubtful if there is any real foundation for it.

Too Many Rhodes Scholats? The Rhodes scholarship scheme is often criticised by those whose Bret care is for Oxford. The late Public Orator was afraid of what might happen
