The mobilization of the expeditionary force
was not widely advertised undertaking. On
the contrary, the troops were moved swiftly
and secretly Most of England hardly knew
where her sons were until officially told they
were in France. And, despite the secrecy it
was not all done under a veil of night, nor
were all the troop trains run with blinds
drawn, as was supposed to be the case when
the phantom Russian hosts were thought TO
have travelled through Scotland and England.
SECRECY MAINTAINED IN EVERY DE-
PARTMENT.
There was no studied effort to move the
troops at night" asserted the general manager
of the Great Eastern, but it was all done
under great secrecy. No one connected with
the railways was supposed to do any talking.
The men who worked up the time tables were
in rooms by themselves and no one not con-
nected with that work was permitted to enter
these rooms. Those time tables were carried
out, too as have said, for all the trains were
prompt"
Mr.. Thornton was asked il he thought the
railways of the United States could make
fine showing in case they were called on to
handle large bodies of troops.
You never can tell what a horse can do
until you get good jockey on him. I believe
the American railroads would make a fine
showing. Of course, the British railways are
well adapted to do their own work in their own
country, and they were easily formed into one
system under general head of direction"
Mr.. Thornton believed there would be a bet
ter understanding between all the British rail-
roads after this war. 1t could hardly be other
wise, with their managers so closely associ
ated for such long time At no meeting Of
the executive committee, he added, had there
been one harsh word 1t was harmonious
throughout and its members had come to
know each other thoroughly.

HE ABSURDITY AND WASTEFUL.
NESS OF LEGALISM.

Mr.. Boston enumerated several legal techni-
calties and said of them:
so long as they exist in the law the stu
dent of law should know them, but IN my
opinion he should also be trained to regard
them as absurdites, wastefuls unnecessary un-
lust and contrary to the habit OF the people
The very existence of such sntiquated prin-
oiples. recognized and enforced by technicians,
but abandoned either by statute or by judicial
practice in advanced communities, makes Tor
trickery, disappointment and defeat, and re-
ouires the practitioners of law to be always
alert for such -essentials-essentials, 1t is
true. in the law, but non-essentials for the law.
WHY therefore, not determine to point out
TO the student the horrors OF the substantive
and the remedial law, to be eradicated when he
comes into his sphere of influence in the com
munity and to be scorned though he is still
under their influenced
A MUSEUM ESTABLISHED AS A HoR-
RIBLE EXAMPLE.
I'm Germany it is said that one man inter
ested in the progress OF art has established
museum of horrors, so as TO bring into ridicule
and contempt certain examples of pseudo-art
that are but a parody upon true art.
why should there not similarly be sys-
tematc effort to hold up TO law students the
provisions of their law which work results that
are parody upon justice?
Il would have il impressed upon the law
student all during his course that we are no
Pythagoresn brotherhood preserving the mys-
teries received from distant past but that as
public servants it is our individual and profess
sional right, and our duty as citizens, to remedy
essential wrong in the administration OF JUS
tice. and 10 see to it that no obvious wrong OF
this nature shall survive our day or be per-
petuated through our efforts.
Indeed, / do not know that it is visionary
TO hope that the time is not far distant when
all existing law will be measured and crti-
cised by its efficiency to accomplish essential
Justice, rather than by its logical consistency
with historical forms and concepts.
eff the law has its horrors let them be right
fully placed in its museum of enormities, and
let the student be taught that we are suffering
under them, but not patiently"
Mr. Boston suggested that every teacher
should seek to Undue his classes with the idea
Of civic duty and with the public function OF
this calling, and in this connection to impress
them with the primary reason for all public
Justice, and to point out with proper contempt

ton TO the pIOIeSslOh VI 4a"i
This was the question asked
in an address recently given at the meeting OF
the American Bar Association. The subject
Of the address was Some Neglected Fields in
Legal Education" The speaker was Charles
A. Boston. chairman of the section of legal
education of the association.
Having asked the question, Mr.. Boston went
on to answer 1t:
at is legal technicality," and then ne added;
"I fear that much more time is devoted in
legal education TO instruction in legal techni-
cality than to any intmation of the possibii-
ties of law reform or the reform Of legal con-
duct and legal ideals"
In prefacing his address Mr. Boston had said
that he considered the opportunity fitting one
to bespeak the introduction into legal educa-
ton of methods which will have broadening
as well as an intensifying influence; which will
impart to the young student the consciousness
and an ever active impulse that his career is
public service, and that both he and his pro-
fession are to be justly hated if he turns its
possibilities into the channels of unrighteous-
ness.

NO HOSPITAL TRAINS IN ENGLAND
AT BEGINNING OF WAR

Then. there has been the work OF transOo,,.
ing the wounded, and even that Of handliny
thousands of refugees.
AT the beginning OF the war there wasn't
hospital train in England" said Mr.. Thornton
which is another answer to those VINO have
said England was thoroughly prepared for war
There are some very fine hospital trains now.
They have the right OF way over all traffic.
The Red Cross trains are equipped with
every modern appliance, heated and well ven.

painted on every coach. The Great Southern
& Western Railway built a hospital train Of
nine coaches and one van within nine days
after the declaration of war.
The success of the British railway system
in doing this work was accomplished despite
the handicap of shortage of men. 1, has been
estimated that fully $4,000 British and Irish
railway men joined the colors previous to o.

private auspices, of legislative drafting bureaus
These bureaus, where established, help the IN
competent in the formulation OF laws. They
have | believe inaugurated plan whereby
legislation may be more comprehensive IN IAN
cusge and more logical in FORM"
Mr. Boston suggested that private Efforts
toward the improvement of the quality OF our
legislation should be supplemented by the ell
forts of the law schools in instructing the pro-
fession. as prospective legislators, in the prin-
ciples Of proper drafting for logic OF arrange
ment and clarity OF expression
In regard to the legal ethics Mr.. Boston
said:
"Our profession is one of extreme public
usefulness when properly pursued, but too
likely to become in fact, if not in law, public
nuisance when practised without regard to
moral considerations. In the hands OF the willy
the law can too often be misapplied to accom-
plish unjust results. 1t behooves the PROBES
sion as well as the people to prevent so tar as
possible guile among its practitioners. Many
men. without the honorable traditions OF the
bar before their minds eye, are too apt to pur-
sue merely the subterfuges which the law sug-
eests. An early training in the best traditions
of the profession will not only discourage such
tendencies in the individual, but will tend also
10 create a general professional atmosphere in
which it will be too uncomfortable tor the
guileful to live.

"The railway companies, in the all important
matter of the transport facilities, have more
than justified the complete confidence reposed
in them by the War Office, all grades OF rail-
way service having labored with untiring en-
ergy and patience"
Field Marshal Sir John French, dwelling on
the transportation Of the expeditionary force,
said, in a report OF September 2:
THE transport of the troops from England
both by sea and by rail was effected in the
best order and without a check Each unit
arrived at its destination in this country well
within the scheduled time"
SYSTEM OF REMUNERATION FOR THE
ROADS.
Mr.. Thornton explained how the remunera-
ton of the roads was arrived at. II would
have taken an army of clerks to keep track
of all the troops and equipment carried. In
stead, an agreement was reached whereby the
roads were awarded sums aggregating what
they earned in corresponding months the year
before. In that way the government could
call on the system at any time, or any single
artery of it, and the work was Immediately
carried out. Instead of being burdened with
great masses of detail, only for statistical pur-
poses were any records kept Of government
movements.
During this time passenger traffic had to
be looked after
