scope for his organizing ability and
driving force In \(cGlll's Whirlwind
Campaign for $6,000,000, which has
been arranged for the week com-
mencing November 16th. This sum,
large for a Canadian Jniverslty, but
small In comparison with the recent
campaigns for Harvard, Tile, Cornell
and Princeton. Is necessary to put
the groat Canadian [Solve:say finan-
cially on Its feet, and to help to re-
coup the losses caused by Its active
participation in the war and by the
absence of many students on war ser-

tend equipment to increase profes-
sor: salaries; to extend the build-

larger number of students in attend-
ance since the clogs of the war; to
meet the specie, requirements of the

McGill, from its very inception,
nearly a hundred years ago, was
identified with scientific research and
application. The Faculty of Medi-
cine 1s the eldest Faculty of the ['nt-
verslty, and the time degree eon -
tarred was the medical degree given
to Dr. Legis The practical trend

neat-1nen, such as the late Sir Wil-
liam Macdonald ani Lord Stratticona
and no doubt Inti-nen*ed Ho qty
ect
helping the University with substan-
tial endowments. The ore -eminence
of McGill in Applied Science is large-
ly due to the polity of Sir R'illtam
Dawson, during whose regime the
course of Engineering wan e::Iarged
Into the Department of Practical
Science: and later into the Faculty of
Applied Science.
Scientific Agriculture is taught
under the auspices of McGill at the
affiliated Macdonald ('oliege in Ste.
Anne de Bellevue which has done a
great work in teaching improved
nie'.bode of farming, not only In the
Province of Quebec. but also through-
out the whole of berth Eastern and
Western Canada. At MacDonald
College also is a school for Teachers
which has greatly elevated our
edaciattdsal standards.
The School of Commercial Studies
is a recawttlevelopment which shows

to the needs of the present gener-
ation. Here business organization,
accountancy, commercial law, bank-
ing and industrial organization are
taught by experti to the future cap-
tains of Industry.
McGill has produeed ome of the
foremost physicians, su eons, en-
gineers and men of avian a of our
time. Johns Hopkins ireretty
