The next address was delivered by pr. A
F. A. King on the subject. How Old Are
We?' The question" he said. lis ..ener-
ally understood to mean the humber of
years that have elapsed since our birth IT
is not so generally understood that the du-
ration OF our existence as living beings al
ways includes a considerable number Of
years prior to the event of birth Ii NAV
be distinctly affirmed also that human life
before birth presents in a somewhat urinli-
tive way many of the phases that cha rae
teriZe IL after We are born. 1t is We'll
known that even before our mothers were
born we lived as ovules in their ovarian
stroma. The ovaries of fetus in utero
contain some thousands of primitive oylles
stances, are to survive and form the beings
or a future generation. While IL NAV be
disappointing to know that our life before
birth implies only an existence as uyules
We must remember that such an existence
in the natural order of things was the
only way in which We could begin and the
only way from which We could proceed TO a
more exalted stage of animal evolution.
If any one desires to retain the old idea of
our lives having suddenly sprung into eX-
istenee at the moment of birth he is well
come so to do"
DIR. King discussed the kind Of life we liv-
ed before birth and what that life implied.
He assured his hearers that we did live
and performed many of the functions of
life common to the lower forms of living
beings.
Begin With the Mother.
THE duration" he said, "of our ante
natal life will depend for the most part
upon the age OF our maternal parents at

ing the hair falling over the forehead
has now been in existence for nearly 20
years, and during that period great
