A nation owes the productive wealth of its mineral and

Student Enrolment Doubled
So groat, in fact, has been the re-
cent demand for university educa-
tion particularly in this progressive
section of the Dominion, that the
student enrolment at The University
of We t Orn Ontari.o Lae doubled dur-
ing th Iat:;t five years; a growth of
demand for university service phen-
omenally in excess of anything ever
before experienced by any Canadian
university,
And what is significant to a re-
markable degree is the fact that the
majority of those students go .to the
Trnivm'sity not Irene the urban com-
munities, but from the rural dis-
tricts. More • than half of the total
number of students now attending
The University of Western Ontario,
are from homes in the thirteen coun-
ties of Western Ontario outside the
university oounty of Middlesex.
This is pointed indication of two

In the Province of Ontario, with
its large centralization of population,
the situation in this respect Is the
more striking, while inWestern O:s-
tario--"the garden of Canada"—the
position finds still greater emphasis.

things. First, of the realization that
is fixing itself securely and perman-
ently in the minds of centralized
communities everyevltere, that a uni-

ent-day methods and mechanisms,
cannot hope to compete with those
who possess that background and
and that training, The nation's
lenders in the turmoil of human af-
fairs today are the best authorities
for that observation.
Minimum of Expense
Second, it is indication that the
people of Western Ontario rapidly
have come to recognize in The Uni-
versity of Western Ontario the logi-
cal outlet for their own demand for
higher education. Nor could this
recognition be at all possible but for
two all important considerations,
namely, that (1) tho standards of
teaching at The University of West-
ern
estern Ontario are of the highest;
proven the equal of the best and su-
perior to some, particularly in re-
spect of ability to adhere to that
invaluable policy of intisuate, in-
dividual imstraction of the student,
anis (2) that economy of tuition,
transportation and living costs makes
Possible the minitnutn of expense.
As the Han, John S. Markin, pro-
vincial minister of agriculture, re-
cently declared before an audience
reerosentativo of tate rural districts
of Western Ontario, "but for the
existence of The University of West-
orn Ontario in the very heart 01 the
community, a university education
would be impossible for many who
are now able to benefit by it. Illgher
living costs alone, in Toronto for in-
stance, would add from ono hundred
to two hundred dollars a year to tete
cost of sending a son or daughter to
the university there. Moreover, in
London, students aro within a short
distance of their homes, a fact of
touch importance to parents, and as
London Is not a large city in the
ordinary sense, it is frog from the
many distractions of a groat metro-
polis."
Ilut, as it was stated in the begin-
ning, it is not alone through its
teaching of numbers of students who
go to it for training along specific
lines, hat through its i'ulaenee upon
the trend of public affairs .generally
that ileo university today is indis-
pensable,

University of Western Ontario
throughout the fourteen counties of
its constituency le to be seen on
every hand. The Faculty and Insti-
tute of Public Health alone serves

in co-operation with public health
officials, physicians. nurses and
others interested or engaged in the
all-important business of preserva-
tion of .health and prevention of dis-
ease,
The influence of the work of the
Faculty of Medicine, officially recog-
nized as in the first class among
institutions of the kind en this con-
tinent, is felt throughout the West-
ern Ontario district and beyond. Its
contributions to medical and surgical
knowledge and practice, thorough re-
search and study are internationally
notable, and its accumulation of the
best and latest itt understanding and
methods from the great medical and
surgical centres of the world gives
to it a Value to the people of West-
ern Outerio that Is beyond estimate.
To both tete urban and rural com-
munities of Western Ontario, the
wont of the Department of Exten-
^ion and Adult Education and of the
Summer School and Extra Mural De-
partment In of far-reaching import-
ance. These departments do not wait
for the student to come to them;
they carry the elements of university
training and study into the homes of
those who are prevented by circum-
stances from attending the regular
courses, or who desire to take up Oho
or other form of special study. Hun-
dreds of individuals in all walks of
life are benefiting by this service
every year, and annually tate scope'
of tho work is being extended,
In Agriculture
And of particular importance to
the rural citizens is the University's
work in agricultural research. Al-
ready this work has obtained wide ,
recognition and is about to be ex- •
tended in keeping with present-day
indications of what lies ahead, for
it hos been forecast on the basis off
definite evidence in that direction
that Western Ontario In the near fa -
titre le to experience an intensive de-
velopment of its agricultural re-
sources on a scale hitherto not
dreamed of.
For fifty years The University of a
Western Ontario has been serving
the people of '4Veotern Ontario with
increasing generosity and productive
efficiency. During that half -century
it has been confronted by and has
overcome many obstacles, some of
which have at tunes threatened its
very life. But it has never before
sought the help of those whom it ;
has served beyond the circle of its .
immediate situation.
Today, however, The University
of Western Ontario is faced by a
genuine crisis in its affairs brought
about by the larger demands placed
upon ,it by the people 02 its whole
constituency, The one solution of
its problem is that all of those whom
it serves must unite to assume their
share of the responsibility for main-
taining its service. The Government
of the Province is generously provid-
ing partially toward that solution.
The Cit3t of London is bearing a fair
share of that responsibility, and the
people of London are assuming their
share as individuals and as a com-
munity. The share of each of the
fourteen counties of Western On-
tario has been soundly established,
and the government, the leaders in
the religious, educational, agricul-
tural, industrial and social life of
the whole district of Western On-
tario have expressed themselves as
confident that the citizens of West-
ern Ontario counties will see incum-
bent upon themselves the moral re-
sponsibility and the material neces-
sity for snaking certain that the
University that is theirs shall not
falter for want of their understand-
ing and action.
