CLASS PREJUDICES.
“It is quite easy nowadays to be agreeably and innocently occupied at Sail moments of the day —and wireless has iput the last touch to it,” said the Archbishop of York at a recent prize-giving. “I know, of course, that all these inventions —wireless perhaps more conspicuously than any other —have brought many blessings of various kinds, but it remains true that with every one of these inventions there is an increased temptation never to develop the resources that are within ourselves. Up to the present the invention of the motor-car' has done more harm than good. It has very largely destroyed the community of life. It has. gone very far to promote the greater segregation of the classes, because it has enabled people of one mind, with great cease, to consort with other people of the sam'e sort. People
with one kind of experience and outlook can get their private cars end go off to spend their leisure with the same set of people as themselves and harden themselves irt their prejudices. Other people can go in the masses in motor-cbar-a-bancs, meeting the same sort of people and hardening them.gelves in their prejudices.”
