The meaning of, fair play in sport- ing parlance end ethics is cleaely understood.. The player, of ,the game who is admired by. the Tablic. IS the man, of self-eeturnand*3eho .thides, by. the decisions of the, umpire arid .cloes not stoop to conquer his ankagornet. In' the ring he is known as a. clean fighter. On the diamond or the grid- iron he is alwa,ye on the _level. In a Ilene race or the stables he spurns the dirty tactics used by crooks. ,Whatever the game, by land, or water or air, he would rather lose than wi urdairly. It does not take the public hang to find him out and appraise hint. at his value. , But fair play has a wider applica- tion than on fields where games' are played. In life's broad arena it con- stantly makes a difference among men. Some, are so swayed by a blind, unreasoning 'prejudice that they are as reluctant to find merit in others whom they imperfectly know as they are to give the de-vil himself his due. They argue .from insuffieient premis- es. They reach ae conclusion before all the evidence is in. They do not hear both sides and patiently sift and weigh the representations pro and con. Fair play proverbially --is called a jewel, for it is the precious adorn- ment of a well -wrought and finely balanced character.

It is A well known face that the cost per pupil in the publie schools has greatay in- creased during the -past two decades and the same is true with' regard to the high FiChOOIS. $1.1011, of course, is only natural not only on account of the continually decreasing value of the dollar but also me account of the greatly diversified type of educa- tion which the modernaworld demands. No ioriger is instruction in the thane basic subjects of the early school curriculuin sufficient for the ikeds of the "niedein boy and girl. The same is true, this bulletin demonstrates, in the provincial university, To meet the' requirements ef modern, life it haS been necessary to add trery'rnany uni- verEaY departments. And yet ,the cast per Student in the Uiliversity of To- ronto is -very considerably below the cost per student in the universities of Great Pritain and of the United States. This is proof, if proof weie needed, that the University of To- rionto is inanaged-with the Most care- ful economy. It is easy for the Anglo- -.Saxon to criticize anything' that is his own, but the series of bulletins al- eeady referred to has served to show that criticism of. the provincial uni.- versity'S expenditaffes is not support- ed y fact and that everything pos- sible is being done to furnish to he youth of Ontario the,,,yery best of higher edueaetien at a minimum of cost.'
