Musing on the nebulous — and
probably spurious — thing called
'equality", I am prompted to re-
call the classic Gilbert and Sul-
livan comment on the dissolution
of the social classes which was in
process even during Victorian
days. When everybody is some-
body,. then nobody is anybody",
goes the adage: " And wise and
venerable Isaak Walton- remem-
bers in this connection that- "a
friend usually said "That which is
everybody's business is nobody's
busikiesS,"
It all rather -suggests that in
spite of the advance of the wel-
fare state there are still men of
gold- and some of Lead; there are.
still some pursuits in which only
the few should engage; and, not-
withstanding the trend of a quar-
ter century ago toward education
for all, we may have reached an
impasse in 1955 where the .success
of. this objective has backfired,

BENJAMIN B1jVEH5WGE) }
A Harvard English professor
says: "Education for all is educa-
tion for none", and goes on to
explain that while there is nothing,
wrong with the individual's desire
for a good general education, 113e
standards in the universities have
been lowered so as to include
everyone with the inclination in
the once exclusive fraternity of
diploma holders. There is an in-
crease in the student body, and
malty schools have geared their
curricula to suit the slowest stud-
ent, which does not provide real
education for the brilliant scholar.
What a vehement subject this
could be! Doubtless Dr. Hilda
Neatby ("So Little for the Mind")
would be quick to agree that edu-
cation today is social and politicial
rather than intellectual, and she
might go on to say that in spite
of a shrinkage of qualified teach-
ers in the public schools, the col-
leges are producing more grad-
uates than ever before. The valid-
ity of the Harvard man's argu-
ment, as far as Canada is con-
cerned, would seem to depend on
whether or not the lack of qualif-
ied teaching inpublic schools is
countermanded by more efficient
and practical: instruction in the
universities.
It may be alarming that the
teaching standards are slipping.
Bat it does not seem to me that a
brilliant student is going to be
held - back, because of a retarded
curriculum. That's where the gold
and thelead comes in.
No doubt,
"Things are seldom as they
seem:
Skim milk masquerades as
cream."

Maiden Voyage Next Spring
Hundreds of workers, representing dozens of specialized trades, are putting the finishing
touches on the 24 -000 -ton Canadian Pacific liner "Empress of Britain" in readiness for her maiden
voyage in the Spring of 1956. :Launched June 22 by Her Majesty Queen. Elizabeth at Govan on
the River Clyde, the newest of the Great White Empress fleet is now being outfitted at the quay:

between Liverpool and Montreal.

By the number of crew-cut
young men wearing bow ties who
have become presidents of large
corporations, it is reasonable to
assume that there is something in
the new educational regime that
brings out business talents. The
average citizen is more able to
make a living than he was two
decades ago. What the system is
doing for the professions concern-
ed with the humanities is another.
