MR. VROOMAN TELLS OF WORK
BEGINNING IN ENGLAND
AND EXPANDING.
Center of Operations In United States
in Missouri Town The Lecturer
Fears Study After Hours Would
Not Suit Hawaii's Tropic Clime.
The Ruskia Hall workiagmea's
movement was thoroughly and
explained before the Young
Men's Research Club gathered at the
pleasant home ot Mr. W. R. Castle,
corner ot Victoria and Kinau streets,
yesterday evening. Those present
were accorded the rare privilege of
learning from- Mr. F. B. Vrooman, a
prominent leader In the work throughout
the "United States, the progress
made since the movement began.
The speaker was presented by Mr.
Percy Pond. After a brief Introduction,
In which passages from the
works, of Ruskin were quoted bearing
upon the workiagmea's movemeat.
Mr. Vroomaa launched into ihe heart
xf hts tneme. He is at the head of
the work in the United States. The
seat of the Ruskin Hall movement is
located at Trenton, Mo., where within
the- past year-a college"
building has been secured. In addition,
a farm of 1600 acres of the best
'aad is owned by the institution which
is operated mainly with the labor of
students, who in this manaer are permitted
to reduce materially the attendant
expenses of the tuition to the
modest sum of $125 a year.
Concerning the work in England,,
Mr. Vroomaa stated that the move-meat
of the workingmen comes from
Ruskia Hall, Oxford. It is a working-man's
college, planted ia that venerable
seat of learning. It receives students,
not with the intention of making
them lawyers or clergymen,, but
with the hope of sending them back
to their own work fully equipped for
the leadership of their own class. It
has on its rolls and it educates, at this
moment, about fifteen hundred working
men by correspondence; it has
founded other "Ruskin Halls" la the
more Importaat towns of that country,
and is founding similar Institutions
with similar names in the
Ualted States. The special
subjects taught are Coastitutioaal
and Institutional Hirtory. In other
words, it is desigaed to latroduce ev
erywhere amoag the youager working-men
sound views of history and sociology,
and ot development according
to knowledge in place ot wild imaginations
of possible milleniums to be attained
by hasty revolutions.'
This attempt, like every other attempt
of the kind, may be regarded
as visionary. So far, however, It has
succeeded. There are the students
at work they cannot be denied; there
are the colleges springing into existence
they are visible to all; there Is
the broad fact that delegates are going
aver to America at oaco to lavite the
workingmen of the States to assist at
the Convention as the -guests of England's
workingmen. So far, therefore,
it is proved to be practical and
possible.
The speaker declared that Ruskia
was the friend ot the laboring men.
He had made the wage questloa a life
study throughout England. , la his
after years he gave liberally to the
I cause of labor. He made a donation
of $200,000 to Improve the condition
of English labor. This subject had
tsrept lato his work all through his literary
career. Ia addition to these efforts
for the workingmen. Ruskia was
said to have been connected with various
private charities. Through his
later career he stood as a prophet and
philanthropist.

the center of all great movesseats,

The launching ofhe moveatesi wa
strenuously opposed by soaae of the
more conservative and learned men of
Eagiand. Many obstacles were placed
la the way of future ssco&s. Time
wore prejudice away. The movement
made a bold staad agiaat class factions.
This secured Instant cooperation

land across the seas was looked into
aad the conditions for the Ruskin
Hall plan ot education were believed
favorable for ultimate success. The
correspoadeace branch ot the move-meat
was also Inaugurated, by which
method many huadreds throughout
England availed themselves ot the
educational privileges. Ia addition to
the regalar faculty, talented professors
from other Oxford colleges have entered
iato the work, aad are
lectures before the studeats at
home and abroad.
Mr. Vroomaa declared that the
methods aad the atteadaat results had
accomplished a great victory ia the
driviag out ot the spirit of discoateat

availed themselves of the educational
advantages offered, aad upon such a
reasoaable basis. They return to their
regular duties ot life better equipped

movemeat teaches ' evolutloa instead
of revolution.
Mr. Vrooman further Insisted that
the movement was not breeding a
crop of agitators, as had been sometimes
predicted by a portion of the
press of London.
The extension movement through-cut

Mr. Vrooman was asked a variety
ot questions bearing upon the Ruskin
movement at the close of his Informal
talk, in tills maaaer maay poiats
were more fully brought out When
asked If he thought it feasible to
the Ruskia Hall educational
movement in Hawaii, the speaker was
somewhat doubtful of success under
climatic conditions here. He was of
the opinion that after persons had devoted
eight hours to labor In a tropical
country such as Hawaii or the
Philippines, they were seriously handicapped
ia applyiag themselves to
study such as the Ruskia Hall
courses demaaded.

Fitch objected to the question, on
on tho ground that it was irrelevant
incompetent and immaterial.
Magoon delivered an eloquent argument
based on the old saw that a man
is known by the company he keeps.
Colonel Fitch's response was more
than eloquent He showed that a man

was a drinker or had bad habits. It

There was some learned argument
as to what constituted a real good

were while he was under the lafiaeace

Some technical point was under dis
