The atmosphere of culture which per

the truest cause of Oxford's greatness.
Dull Indeed must the atudent be who
la not touched and deeply influenced
by thla great force during his univers
ity life. It atrikea the foreigner Imme
diately. The first evidence of It comes
perhaps In the course of the first con
versation in a student's room, at which
he happens to be present. He will not
fall to notice the correctness of expres
sion, and usually the vigor and fresh
ness of thought, which are the salient
characteristics of the conversation of
the best Oxford men. Of course there
are exceptions. There are frequent
examples of the literary dude In Ox
ford as well aa anywhere else of the
man who sacrifices all pretense to sin
cerity and soundness to a momentary
and half cheap, epigrammatic bril
liancy of expression. But thla la not
true of the average Oxford man. Har
