end. If contributions by the contractors
were an evidence that they were paid too
much, then the same rule should apply to
other employees.

had, for between the uncertain lower

likely as their disagreement.

age thero is still room for such supersti'
tious faith as that by which Christendom
was stirred to its centre nearly nine hun
dred years ago. Yet if the Canadian en-

The old and great colleges like Harvard

the new institutions cannot drum NJ
enough to fill their benches, in nine case
out of ten. Colleges have multiplied fast
while the total number of scholars are
only slowly advanced. We suffer from
too many colleges. too much flinsy cole

zeal in driving young men unfit for their
