Now FOR THE SCHOOLS.
I feel that if we have not the courage to suspend the education of cur children, we do rot deserve to win the battle. favours. As a matter of fact no government bestows favours without taking more than the favours are worth. It would be a bad and extravagant government which threw away its favours. In a government broad-based upon a people's will, we give our lives to secure a trinket which is a symbool of service. Under an unjust government which defies a people's will, rich J agirs become a sign of servitude and dishonour. Thus consideied, the schools must be given up without a mcment's thought.
For me the whole scheme of non-co-operation is, among other things, a test of the intensity and extent of our fcelirg. Are ve genuine ? Are ve prepared to suffer ? It has been said that we may not expect much response frcm title-holders, for they have never taken part in nation- al affairs and have bought their honours at too great a price easily to sacrifice them. I make a present of the argument to the objectors, and ask, what about the parents of school-children and the grown up college-students ? 1 hey have no such intimate connection with the Govern- ment as the title-holdeis. Do they or do they not feel enough to enable them to sacrifice the schooling t
But I conter.d that theie is no sacrifice involved in emptying the schools. We must be specially unfit tor non- co-oj eiation if *e ate so helpless as to be unble to manage cur own education in total independence of the Government.
