Africa as regards the question of
higher education.
The special Capetown correspond
ent of the London Morning Post, a
journal which has always taken a
great interest in educational prob
lens, contributes, in this connection,
an interesting summary of the posi-
tion of affairs at the present moment.
He states that the Cape University,
which controls, higher education In
South Africa a. this time, is modelled
on what the London University used
to be before its reconstruction in
1903; in other words it is an ex-
amining board under the name of a
university. 1t has no residential
features and no teaching staff; It
simply holds examinations once a
year, and, as the result of these ex-
aminations, confers B. A. or M. A. de-
grees, as the case may be, and also
the degree of Ii. B., a degree which
Is necessary for admission to the
South African bar, as well as certain
mining and surveying certificates.
The actual teaching is carried out
by the colleges at Capetown, Stellen-
bosh, Grahamstown, Bloemfontein
and johannesburg. All these col

leges are quite separate from one
another, nor have they had any CON
nection with the Cape University be-
yond the fact that they all enter
their students for and accept its de-
grees. The Cape University, ON its
part, has made a rule that no profess
sor can be appointed as an examiner
for any examination at which his pu-
pills attend.
The results of this system are gen.
orally condemned. For one thing it
makes the mere obtaining Of a de-
gree the great aim both Of the student
and of the teacher, since the colleges
are judged by their success in OBJ
tanning degrees for those who study
them. Again, owing to the rule men
toned above. coupled with the fact
that IN country like South Africa,
the number Of qualified men Is dis
tinctly small, the Cape University is
limited, as regards examiners, to
men Of extremely doubtful qualifica-
tions are otherwise sound, to men
who have adopted some other profess
sion than that Of teaching and whose
knowledge. consequently, is some
what behind the times.
The result of all this is that the
degrees granted by the Cape Uni
versity have not the value Of those
granted by English and Scottish uni
yersities, the standard is low, and
the colleges are committed to a
policy of "cramming."
Various remedies have been pro-
posed. One is a federal union of the
existing colleges with the Cape Uni
versity, another the granting of a
university charter to those colleges
which can provide the necessary
standard of teaching and equipment,
and yet a third the establishment of
a single teaching university for the
whole of South Africa.
The first of these remedies is the
easiest. but II Is difficult 70 see how
it is any particular improvement on
the existing system. The second
seems more satisfactory, but as II is
doubtful whether either the number
OF students or the endowments avail
able would Justify its inception. there
does not seem much chance of its be-
ing decided on. The only alternative
Is the establishment Of a single teach
ing university for the whole Of South
Africa. It will be seen that this
would reduce the various existing

HIGHER EDUCATION
IN SOUTH AFRICA

WHILE DARK CONTINENT AL
MOST ON A PAR WITH THAT OF
LEADING NATIONS.

While primal and secondary educa-
7tion have been left, by the act of
Union, to the provincial council Of
each province of the Union of South
Africa, the question of higher educa-
tion has been placed under the direc-
tion of the Union Parliament itself,
and the fact that there is to be one
authority controlling higher educa-
tion in South Africa is focusing at
tention on the possible establishment
of single teaching university for
the entire country. Before the like
lihood of such an institution in the
near future can be adequately gauged
it is necessary to consider what is

colleges to mere public schools, a
state of affairs they are not likely
to appreciate. Then again, in a
country of the size of South Africa,
the question Of the site would prob
ably give rise to further difficulties.
Moreover the Cape University would
cease to exist, consummation which
can hardly be expected to commend
itself to the examining staff of that
institution.
In view of all these considerations
1t will be interesting to see what
steps the Union Parliament will take
to place the whole question of higher
education in South Africa on salts
factory footing.

Cleveland is justly proud of the
fact that it holds first place among
cities Of 100000 population or more
in respect to the proportion of school
expenses to the total cost of city
administration, says the Hartford
Courant. In Cleveland the money
spent on schools was Bill per cent
of the entire expenditure. The
schools cost S4.61 for every inhabi-
tant. In Chicago the cost is s3.s6;
in Philadelphia, $4.O4 and in st.
