CONTEMPORARY OPINION.

JOHN MORLEY ON EDUCATION.
John Morley made an address on
education a couple of weeks ago before
a London technical school, In which
the casual overflow of his full mind
onfainod many wise and witty things.
He began by admitting that speeches
on education were among the most
tiresome in the world to listen to-as
he could testify from having both made
and listened to maryland the reason
was that there were not two sides II
the question. When everybody was
agreed about the advantages of edu-
cation il was hard work arguing with
out any opponent. However, a fresh
practical turn had been given the sub
ject lately in the alarm over German
trade competition which seemed to be
due I'm the last analysis and so far as
IL was a formidable competition, to the
superior technical education OF Ger
mans But there were signs that the
great English manufacturers and cap
tains OF industry were awakening to
their remissness in this particular, and
would speedily remedy it. Still he
thought the difference between the
young German business man and the
Young English business man was not
wholly one of advantages to be had
in schools In Germany the young
men who were to succeed TO the family
/ business were in the habit of travelling
and acquiring languages and getting a
! broad knowledge Of the conditions of
! international commerce In England
/ it was too often true that the sons of
the house passed their waiting and pre-
paratOry years in devotion to pleasure
especially to sport. In Germany the
father said Thank God ! have a

THANK God. have a fatherl' There
is a great truth in this. though it never
