Distinguished Scientist of
Vienna Will Be of Summer

Berkeley Office San Francisco Cali,


214S Center Street, Feb 8.
Announcement was made at the Uni

of the most distinguished physicists in
the world, DR.. Ludwig Boltzmann, pro-
fessor of theoretical physics in the Uni
versity of Vienna, has accepted Presi-
dent Wheeler's invitation to join the
university faculty at the next summer
session.
The summer school, is to extend
from June 26 to August 5. The school
last year was brilliant success, at
tracing a large attendance and being
notable by the presence and work OF
some of the worlds greatest scholars.
prominent among these was Arrhenius,
the famous Swedish physicist, whose
lectures formed an attractive feature
OF the summer session, impressing all
with the marvellous mastery Of his cho-
sen field possessed by the European
scientist, Besides Arrhenius there was
in the same faculty he Vries, the cele-
brated Dutch botanist, who crossed the
Atlantic to participate in the sessions
Of the summer school at the university.
Professor Boltzmann stands in the
same class with these two giants of
science, according to the University of
California authorities. He came to st.
Louis last year to attend the Congress
of Arts and Sciences held there during
the exposition. His visit to California
next summer Is expected to arouse
much interest among scientific men
throughout this country as well as
abroad.
His subject at the University of Cali
fornia will be Mechanical Analogies
of Thermodynamics," with special ref
erence to theorems of statistical me-
chanics. Among the professors pub
lished writings are Lectures on the

we naturally look for results. No
doubt the community has been inn
pressed There has been much think
ing done. But the important question
is who has been persuaded to become
the followers of Jesus, The cards sign

hundred persons. all told, as in this
class. Who are thew Mostly boys
and girls. Why have not more men
and women been per uadcd to take a

this question as we move among those
who attended the meetings.

A Visit to the West,

By Mrs. G. H. Longman, and read be
fore the Harris Grove Farmers Club
Saturday, September Both.
Between here and Denver there is
not much diversity of scenery. East
ern Nebraska is but continuation of
the fertile hills and valleys, the wealth
.ot corn and golden grains we are leav-
ing behind us in Iowa. Then, as we
rush along westward. the land becomes
more rolling, or nearly level, the grain
fields gradually give way to pasture
and meadow, the habitations become
few and far between, and we realize
that we are traversing the western
prairics. As we travel hour after hour
over the seemingly endless expanse of
level, grassy land, with here large
drove of horses. there fine herd of
cattle or flock of sheep, then colony
of tents for the haymakers. we realize
as never before the limitless possibil-
tiles of this great west. And we think
