The chief trouble, we believe. as has
been eat! before, is that up till the
preseut time the great masses of our
young wen have failed to realize the
significance of the event. in Europe
and the perilousness of the situation.
The past decide in Canada bas not
been one well calculated to induce
serious thinking. It has been a period
of expansion. inflation and general
whoop -bet -up; a period of expectation
of getting ri:hquick, a period in wbich
hard grinding drudgery hes been dis-
counted. It bas been the very worst
stet of preparation for t!tfe great war ;
and it takes some time fcr our young
wen 10 ba j died into a realization of
the situation. Perhaps the authori-
tier both in Britain end in Canada
have not given the proper lead. There
has been too great a tendency to ley
emphasis upon ultimate victory rather
than upon itunted:ate necessities.. We
are ton seedy to take it for granted
that the ll,itish Empire is 1.mod to
come out victorious. in the early
days of the war we were all too ready
to believe that Germany would
"crank" suddenly, and that the war
wo;tld end as abruptly as it began.
Nor is it necessary to be pesw.widtic
today or more doubtful of .•the ulti-
mate result. It is necessary to re-
mind young Canadians that the ulti-
mate result may depend upon them,
and that jnst as the Uanadians at tit.
