OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE
Despite all the changes of recent veal's the "conservatism" of Oxford and Cambridge is still considered as an axiom (says the "Guardian"). But the Bishop of Bathurst, New South Wales, thinks otherwise. Speaking at a meeting of the Colonial Institute the other, day, he said that of all the universities ho "found Oxford and Cambridge the most radical .and ready to move." Dr. Long is Diroctor of Education for the Australian Forces; his opinion therefore has a special authority. The Bishop left his diocese to servo as a chaplain in order to get to know tho Australian soldier. • He is now superintending the education of some 20,000, who for four or five; hours a day are studying from a list of one hundred different subjects on the curriculum. The l'ishop believes 1 that Australia, is "on tho ovo of a new • oreative period in her development."
