19 The Proposer urged an early release from slavish tendencies in thought and speech; the boy should be prepared to step out into life feeling in his heart, I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. Invoking Shakespeare, the Opposer reminded the House that even the bees have a king and officers of sorts ; sustained progress depended upon disciplined organisation. On a vote, the majority decided that they had no wish to be their own mastters: a puny lot. Dec. 15. Hat Debate: Each member made one or more im- promptu speeches. Jan. 26 Debate on the Motion, That free education means better education. Proposer: — F. Duffey. Opposer: — J. Adams. Third: — T. N. Fall. Fourth: — H. P. Malloy. For Free Education it was claimed that the unedfucated man was uncivilis ' ed; he needed education to fulfil his obligations to the community, and therefore it was in the best interest of the community to educate him. The Opposer denied that there could be such a thing as free education: somebody had to pay, usually the taxpayer; but in so far as it was free to the recipient he was less likely to appreciate it. The Motion was defeated. One member, who arrived late in a jaundiced frame of mind from detention, was heard to remark that he thought education a frightful bore anyway. Feb. 9. — Debate with the B. H. S. on the Motion That ambition is a vice rather than a virtue. Proposer: — Miss N. North. Opposer: — F. Duffey. Third: — J. F. Motyer. Fourth: — Miss K. Peniston. The Proposers pointed at the dangers of overweening ambition, which had been responsible, for so much suffering in the past, and seemed now to be hurrying the world along to a major disaster; but the Opposition felt the spark of ambition stirring within their breats, and believed that it was a noble thing, and a necessary stimulant to a man who would achieve much.
