The Archbishop of Canterbury has been complaining of the absence of great, outstanding personalities in these days ns compared with forty years ago, and the question arises, how far a contemporary can really judge of the greatness of those whose careers await the judgment of history. History, however, may well discover flint we have been unjust in our judgment of our contemporaries, and though it is past hoping that our descendants will took hock to the years
immediately after the. Great AA’ar as a golden age, they may well find more to admire in the natural gifts _of our great men than our short sight is capable of perceiving.—London “ Alorning Rost.”
