Soon after war was declared the grad
yates OF Canadian universities formed
central universities committee for the
purpose OF arranging what might be
termed a university extension course re-
gardlng the war. This committee issues
communications to university men
throughout the Dominion keeping them
informed and assisting them so that
they may. as educated men do their
share in enliehtening public opinion and
helping IN all manner Of activities.
with the outbreak Of war military life
IN all the universities naturally increased
enormously. Such universities as had
not previously possessed training corps
for officers installed them. McGill,
which has already sent seventy-five men
TO the front now has 900 men-stu
dents professors and graduates in it,
regiment while the military organiZa-
ton at Toronto University reaches per-
haps twice that number.
Laval. the French Canadian university
in Montreal, has numerically the largest
officers training corps OF any Canadian
college, but the percentage OF men pre-
pairing for war service in the smaller
universities Is quite as great as in the
larger ones. Halifax Manitoba, British
Columbia and Mount Allison are doing
their fun share, and the University of
Saskatchewan reports that one-thirG Of
it, entire student body has already gone
and adds: Another third Is about to
go, and the last third will be ready
when required"

London. Sept. L
7 had an Interview yesterday which took up
part OF the morning. most OF the after
noon and extended into the evening, with
DIT. Oscar Levy, of London. the greatest author
fly on Nietzsche, and one of the worlds great
est psychologists DR.. Levy was born on March
Is. 1867, in the town Of Stargard in Pommer-
ania. Ills father banker. DR.. Levy grad
uated from the Gymnasium in Stargard, then
from the University OF Freiburg. in Baden
where he was a member of the Albingia Corps,
one Of the fighting corps, which in accordance
with German custom meets all challengers.
Ateerward DR.. Levy took post graduate courses
in medicine and psychology in the Universities
OF Berlin. Munich Vienna and Paris For the
last twenty years Or. Levy's home has been
in London, where he is a member Of the Royal
Societies Club. Of the Royal College Of Sur
geons and Licentate of the Royal College OF
Physicians.
Or. Levy is that most wonderful being, from
an intellectual standpoint. a Jew who is abb
solutely free from any trace OF commercialism
and whose sole interest is in literary pursuit
and research, regardless of material gain. On
his mothers side. in the seventeenth and eigh-
teentn centuries. there were six generations OF
Rabbits, and it is to them and to her that DR..
Levy attributes his mentality.
DR.. Levy told me Of a most strange and IN
teresting custom: he said that for centuries It
the custom for rich Jewish families living
in Poland, Germany. Spain, Portugal. Italy and
France to seek Talmudic scholars as husbands
for some of their daughters. The wealth OF
the family placed at their disposal, so that
they could continue their studies, and in that
way the love of learning and the longing for
knowledge we're kept alive in the race. Or.
Levy further said that, had it not been for this,
the Jewish would have ceased to exist
mo race purely commercial can live"
DR.. Levy spent few weeks in the United
States in 1892. but In spite of the travels that
have taken him to all quarters of the globe he
says "A psychologist does not need to travel
in order to know the people of the earth. A
study of their literature reveals not merely
their mental but racial characteristics as we'll"
But, Doctor" / asked do you mean that
psychologist can get to know as much about
the people Of the earth from a study of their
literature as those who travel in the countries
and meet the people themselves?"

Not only as much. but far more for the
psychologist is mentally detached and views
the subject Of his inquiry from a distance;
there is nothing between the subject he dis

Americans are the most optimistic OF all
the nations: properly directed. this spirit will
accomplish wonders, but when the American
