Tbe size of tbe audience indicated the popularity oltbat department among tbe clti· zeD and otber studtmts, tbe . Opera House beIng crowded.

The annual address to tbe graduat­Ing class was gIven by Profes or Wal­ter L. Blerring, M. D. Bls advice to tbe class was tbat in assuming tbe re­sponsibilities or tbe Immediate future It I profitable to Con Ider well and keep In mind what tbe Inventl ve and scleotific minds bave done to develop aDd enoble civilization and tbe world.

Aiter the address, tbe orchestra pleased the audience with a very fine o'erture, and then Pre iden t Scbaef­fer Introduced Dr. Abbott, Pre Ident or the State Examining Board, and member of the National Examining Board. Dr. Abbott said tbat tbe 'ork don\ln the Dental Department, both by the Faculty and students,was '.ry gratifying, and was of a quality luch u to put Iowa's University In the very front rank.

THEIS/I\,

AN ANSWER TO PROFE OR SlIllTn's LECTURE.

In tbe Unitarian Cburch In tun­day evening, Dr. Gilbert replied to Profe or Smith's lecture on Pantbe­ism, by an e 9ay on Theism.

In Tbeiilm i to be tound one ot tbose problems over which tbe buman mind has truggled for centuries. Man bat! ever been puzzled with "be problem of reality, the nature of God, and the mystery of man. Tbe religious be­lief of rude men rest on what tbey have fel t and known of tbe pre ence and power of the supernatural in and about them. Bllt man cannot rest permanently on these mere beliefs. he must reflect, define and Interpret. Kllowledge Is scarcely wortby of the name unless it bas passed throullb tbe stages of dogmatism, skepticism and criticism: We admire the skep­tic in tbat be critically investigates, but we de pise him If bis skepticism leads him to agnosticism. Agnosti· clsm I not only mental cowardice but mental suicide. The question is not wbetber tbere is a God, but what is his nature. It anyone will not ac­knowledge God, you cannot prove hi existence like you can a proposition in ~eometry. There bas to be ,an ele· ment of faith; you have to feel tbe presbnce of God. 1t is not by reason thdot we find God, but it Is In life tbat we Ond bim. But taitb, for that matter, Is a part of all knowledge. All scientific discus Ion starts with some as umptlon.

In trying to conceive of tbe super­natural, we bave to put It in tbe form that tbe mind can understand. What­ever conception we form of (:jod, it must be an Lbropomorpbic. It is DOt possible that tbe unIty of reality Is the result of acoident. Tbe form of the uuiverse Is sucb tbat Its forma­tion must have h~en gained by some direoting IntellIgence. The tbeory rt Evolution Is ijhot tbrough and through with tbe thougbt of design. Evolu­tIon cannot go very far witbout im­plying all that is \mpli~d in Teleolo~y. Sucb terms as HeredIty, Survival of tbe Fittest, etc, are t,he only means of removlLg the final explanation far­tber away.

811conilln, The Opbthalmoscope and What It

Reveals, II wa the subject of tbe paper read by Dr. F. J. Newberry, last Fri­day evening.

1'be Ophthalmoscope may be de­tined al an Instrument devised for tbe purpose of rendering vislblv the In­terior of tbe eye. On account of the anatomical structure of the eye, It Is Impossible, under ordinary circum­stances, to view tbe posterior por­tion of the interior of this organ. The consIderation ot a simple experi­ment will make It clear how the Uph­tbalmo cope overcomes this difficulty. Take a small box with a dark interior In the bottom of It put some printed matter to be vieWed. Over a small hole In tbe top of the box, place a lens of suitable foeus. Now, rays ot lljlht from a candle properly situated will pass through the lens, be focused up·

RO. 65

on tbe pri nted matter, be reflected and pa~s through the iens back to tbe _candle. Now if you try to place your eye so as to catcb tbe rays returnIng from the box, you will at the ame time Intercept tbo light going from the candle to tb~ bOX, and thus see notblng. It was Helmholtz, in 1851, wbo solyed tbe problem. He made a transparent refiector by placing rour pieces or gla 8 upon each otber. By this means tbe rays returning from the box Were reflected into bis eye without jnterfering with tbo e going into tbe box. Tbis is the principle in­volved In the Ophtbalmoscope. 1'bere are many different forms ot the in­strument.

One form that Dr. Newberry sbow­ed to the audience consisted simply of a small concave mirror with a bole in tbe center, tbe mirror tbrowlng lIgbt into the patient's eye,and some of tbe returning rays paSSing through tbe mall hole into tbe operator's eye. Dr. Newberry tben disoussed the ap­

pearance of tbe various parts of tbe eye as revealed by t,be Ophthalmo­scope, illustrating his remarks by means of colored cbarts. The use ot tbe in9trument i not at all confined to tbe examination ot di eases of the eye. Oertaln appearances of certain parts of tbe eye iudicate lesions In otber parts of the body. Tbe diag­nosIs ot many diseases, such as kidney diseases for example, ~can be made at an earlier period and wi th greater pre­cision by means or tbe Ophtbalmo­scope tban in any otber way.

The Columbia University crew will not be taken upon tbe water tor at least tour weeks.

'I'he University ot Wisconsin will send everal of her best track meo east this spring to contest in the Mott Haven game.

The Harvard·Yale foot ball game will be pla.yed Novembe~ 13th at .New Haven, and the Yale-Princeton game No~ember 20tb at Princeton.

President Andrews, of Brown Uol­ver. Ity, has decided no'. to re3ume bis work tbls year, and will not return from abroad unlll next Augu t.

'rpe faculty of Brown University has announced Its assent to tho reo quest of, tbe Senior class to exempt trom Onal examinations all those members of tbe olass wbose prevlolls work has been sutnclently creditable.

The number of students now In at· tendance at tbe leading uoi verslties In tbe leadlng_ eastero Universities bas been compiled aud Is as follows: HarvaJd, 3,674; Pennsylvania, 2,752; Mlcblgan, 2,706; Yale, 2,5J6; Cornell, 1,951; Columbia, 1817; Massachusett& IlJstitute of Tecbnology, 1,415; Prince· ton, 1,313; Brown, 910; Dartmouth, 602.

Oornell and Pennsylvania met Mch, 6tb at Pblladelphla lor their fourth annual debate. 'fhe qu~stlon was: "Resolved, that the United States and several states should establish courts or compulsory adjustment of disputes betweeo employees and prl· vate corporations which possess Iran­chlses of public nature." Cornell woo the debate, upholding the n~atlve. This makes two victories for Oornell and two for Pennsylvania.
