Professor J. r Ruckstell addressed the
M embers of the Young Mems Christian As
sociation last night in the association hall,
232 Suffer street, on "Wise Men of Ancient
and Modern Times" The speakers main
object was to draw comparison between
the wisdom of the leading intellects of an
cient days and those of the present time
After making the comparison, he drew the
conclusion that the scholars Of this century
were much more advanced than the an-
clients. and that, contrary to the belief of
many, man is mentally, morally and so
cially progressive. Due allowance was
made for the differences of environment and
opportunities for mental culture. He at
tributed much of the credit given the an
clients to the reverence and admiration
which students attach to the records of an
