Let us take young Lloyd George when
he won his first election and became
member of Parliament. He said to his
cheering crowds: My friends, my
countrymen, the day of the cottage

not demagogue's phrase; he deeply
felt what he said. and, full of Biblical
enthusiasm, the young lawyer, who had

Judge from reports published by the

cation.
Prof. Vttorio FranChini has written
Oh elaborate summary of the work of
italian women in the last war, giving
exhaustive analysis of conditions, which
leads to the belief that in the next war
women will be modified for factories in
the same manner as men are modified

Prof. Franchini concludes that men

manufacture of small arms. projectiles

The report of the mobilization COM
mittee tells an interesting story of the
development of women'S work during
the war. The story comes under three
periods. The first was a period of

The second period was marked by the

from the transfer of women to the fac
tory.
The last period, says the report, was
that of the new system in full operation,
with hundreds of thousands of women
working contentedly under conditions
which would not damage their health
or morality and with government in

that these conditions we're maintained.

The influence of this book was so profound
that for more than a hundred years 1t de-
termined the European ideal of the gentle
man. This book was entitled THE Courtier."
Its author, Baldassare Castiglione. was, like
Prof Rogers, scholar. But the Renaissance
was period which encouraged the versatility
of human nature, and Castilione a courtier,
diplomat, a warrior, poet and a man-of-let-
ters as well. He had been attached to the court
of the Dukes of Urbino the most cultivated So
ciety in Europe at the time, and when he came
to write his book about the education Of q
gentleman he cast it In the form of q discus
sion in the drawing room of the duchess,
wherein was debated the question of what con-
stitutes the perfect courtier. Whether the con-
versations recorded in his book actually took
place we do not know; but with the sure in
stinct Of the great artist Castiglione improved
upon nature ideally, so that the conversations,
as we have them in his book are those which
might have taken place In a period when the
spiritual flame of human nature burned most
incandescently.
Unlike Prof. Rogers, Castilione did not be-
heve that the prescription of elementary rules
would materially aid In evolving the aristocrat,
or the leader Of men. Rather, In his book will

Two women entered the chapel with q tiny
girl to visit the tomb After viewing the marble
monument, they began to engage in a heated
argument as to the correct Interpretation of
the statue. while the little girl stood by. Was
the general asleep or dead? Having almost de-
cided to agree to disagree, they were interrupt
ed by childish voice which whispered,
"Sh-h-h, you-all. you'll wake the gentlemans"
The baby mind had grasped the significance Of
the statue

THERE is something rather sad. as q COM
mentary upon our civilization, in the
spectacle Of an educator advising mature stu
dents to be attentive 70 matters Of elementary
personal hygiene. to be content with mediocre
mentality and to initiate the merely superficial
gestures Of a social type. The spectacle is sad
for many reasons. 1t suggests. perhaps un-
fairly. that our students are the victims Of
adult infantilism. 1t suggests that our edu-
Gators, in SO far as they agree with Prof.
Rogers. possess no very clear concept Of the
kind Of enlightened leadership for which they
propose to provide the training. It suggests,
even more Importantly, that the country as o
whole is gradually becoming more and more
content with cheap limitations of good wares.
Not culture, but the semblance Of culture:
not rich spirit, but a glib tongue; not
achievement. but the appearance Of success;
these are ideals to which Prof. Rogers gospel
would dedicate US. The difference between
one saspender button to two pairs Of trousers
Is not as irremediable as that between preten-
tious snobblishness and genuine quality.
