Book Description
Excerpt from The Canada Educational Monthly, Vol. 12: And School Magazine, January to December I do not know whether the Province has the power to change the existing system. That is a question of law with which I feel myself incompetent to deal, and which in any case could not be suitably discussed on an occa sion like this. One may certainly wish that it may be found to possess the power, or if not, that it may receive it. The system, itself, of separate or sectarian schools appears to be incapable of justification on any ground of right principle or even of wise expediency. I do not expect to see any permanent contentment in relation to the question while the system is maintained. The convie tion will continue to be deeply and generally cherished, that the equities of the situation have been disregarded and that the interests of the State have been sacrificed to meet the requirements of the Church of Rome.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Canada Educational Monthly, Vol. 12: And School Magazine, January to December The consideration that recommends a purely secular system of education to many, notwithstanding its obvious drawbacks, is, if I mistake not, the belief that only through its adoption can the separate schools of the Roman Catholic Church be abolished without even the shew of injustice to their supporters. The belief is, in my humble opinion, a mistaken one; but even if it were not a mistaken one - even if it were a fact that separate schools could only be equitably got rid of through the entire secularisation of our public school system, much as this end is to be desired, I could not consent to purchase it at such a cost. If the thing is wrong in principle, and likely to be pernicious in operation, is it necessary to say that a right-minded man will feel that he has no liberty to employ it to accomplish any end, however desirable. Truth and right disdain the aid of such weapons. The Roman Catholic Church errs, indeed, as most Protestants think, in claiming the absolute right to regulate and control the education of its youth. It is a claim which the State, if it would preserve its independence, cannot afford to concede - cannot allow to be put in operation in schools supported by public funds. But that church has hold of a great truth when it asserts everywhere and always that education should be religious, that instruction in the fundamental principles of morality should go hand-in hand with instruction in reading and arithmetic. As a Protestant, I am unwilling that it should be left to it to be the only witness for this important truth - important alike to the State and to the Church, and that the Protestant churches, through their abandonment of it, should be to that extent placed at a disadvantage in the conflict, whether with sceptical thought or with depraved conduct.

Excerpt from The Canada Educational Monthly, Vol. 21: January to December, 1898 N seeking for words to set forth the nature of human education we become aware of the largeness and complexity of the subject. Human nature is so vast, and the aspects which it presents are so numerous, that we do not easily give an account of its moral and intellectual history and discipline. Thus, we may think of the Church of Christ as the Gar den of the Lord; and then the sons of the Church will be as the young plants, or, again, the Church is represented as a Temple, an habitation for God through the Spirit; and then the daughters may be thought of as the polished corners of the Temple, for beauty and ornament.

Excerpt from The Canada Educational Monthly, Vol. 22: January to December, 1899 The event to which allusion has just been made suggests the re ection that, unique in this respect among Cana dian Universities, mcgill owes Loth ing to the State, but everything to the enlightened liberality of private citi zens. As one stands on, the time worn steps of the old Arts Building, bearing the name of the first bene factor, the eye falls successively on buildings associated with the names of the merchant princes of Montreal the Molsons, Redpath, Workman, Mc Donald, and the present noble Chan cellor, Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal. And, as in the old Arts Build ing and its somewhat irregular exten sions and additions we read the record of the University's past struggles, _so in the group of stately structures which have sprung up around it, and in their unrivalled equipment, we see the testi mony of its achieved prosperity and success and mark the prophecy of a brilliant future.

Excerpt from The Canada Educational Monthly, Vol. 19: January to December, 1897 On this point, let me speak one ear nest word before I pass on. Young men, your life is still to a large extent before you, to make of it whatyou will. Doubtless, you have already formed habits which have a considerable power and influence over you. But you can hardly have so far formed them that you are incapable of mak ing a dispassionate estimate of their nature and tendencies and you have hotso formed them that it is no longer possible to change them. Soon you will go forth from these halls and many of you will probably take up your abode in places which will be your homes so long as you live. Try to use the interval of time in such a manner as to form those habits by which you will wish to be distinguish ed throughout your whole personal and professional career. Remember, this is now possible to you. Every day that you live you may make some progress in one or the other direction. Every day the light of reason and conscience grows Clearer or dimmer. Every false word darkens and dis torts the sense of truth. Every act of procrastination helps to destroy the habit of prompt recognition of duty and to efface the sense of duty.

Excerpt from The Canada Educational Monthly, Vol. 10: And "School Magazine," January to December, 1888 EN would hardly fight about the best method of going up a ladder; but a hundred battles have been fought on the best method of training a child. So writes the author of Eeee Deus; and it is evi dent that the battles have not all been fought yet. We need not wonder that diversity of Views should prevail regarding the matter of religi ous teaching in the Public Schools. I accept Mr. Le Sueur's open letter in the issue of the Monthly for December as the honest and can did expression of his convictions on this subject, and I shall endeavour to state my objections to his position in the spirit of candour and equity in which he desires that discussion should be carried on.
