"To the world he (Leacock) remains the man of laughter," writes Roberts in The. Reader's Digest. "His greatest achieve- ment., though, was that, he taught thousands of young men and, women to Ward to know. By example he proved one sim- ple feet to all of us — that. the riglit ot outspokcn dissent is the free man's most precious heritage." Leacock, author of "Sun- shine Sketches" and other des - s10$ of humor, was known to McGill students primarily for his eccentricity and "for an impish individualism which expressed itself on every sub- jeet in his lectures on econo- mies and political science," He was tremendously proud of hie. Ph.D., says Roberts, but. it was inescapably in character that he must spoof it. "The meaning of this degree," he quipped in a lecture, "is that the recipient has been exam- , ined for the lest time in his life end pronoeneed full. After , this, no new ideas cae be int - Par led to him." 'What came through to me, even in the first lecture, was eeecoe 's wainith and human- ness' says Roberts.
