To what extent are they proving siteressful1 The important part which they have played in our national life in the past is now held in question.

Safety First.

So far as character building, poise, and the creation of a certain type of atmosphere are concerned, these institutions fully justify their existence. But something more is nocded in this strenuous and com- petitive age. Many boys on leaving school are sufficiently content with

getting a job 71

and earning a salary, with a secure position and reasonable prospect of permanoner. That opportunity is all they aak from ito. That they are rendering useful service to the State is pro position that would never enter their thoughts.

When they embark upon a com

their duties to the best of their ability; but have they any idea as to how much the knowledge they are acquiring at school is likely to be of practical utility? Do they realise the specific usefulness of this knowledge to themselves in their after-career!

Of what practical use does many & young man fresh from public school or university think that be can be in the world of business? He offers his services to some em-~|| ployer.

What, however, is lost sight of is the vital and paramount fact that England is more than ever an industrial nation.

It is useless to ignore the fact that commores is the dominating factor in England's national life. Upon it also depends culture, art, literature, and the humanitice. The right outlook on commerce is there fore a matter of supreme import-

I certainly think that the history of the development of the nation's commerce, together with a study of the lives of great industrial leaders during the last fifty you should act as an inspiration youth. Why should the hero worship of the coming generation be monopolised by the study of the lives of soldiers and statesmen to the exclusion of our great commercial leaders 1

I am not for a moment auggest- ing that technical business training should be given in our public schools. To many Buch would be a sheer waste of time, But I do hold very strongly that those definitely destined for com- mera should be afforded the op- portunity of acquiring a more de tailed knowledge of the work that will be expected of them.
