January 18th, 1914 DIR. Talcott Viii
liams, Director Of the Schol of Jour
liams. Director OF the School OF
journalism. Columbia University
acted as judge in the contest. The
following is taken from Mr.. Nc
known's paper:
In addition to being a source of
religious inspiration the Conven-
tion in its effect showed that the
age OF miracles has not passed. Del
egates there saw with their own
eyes conversions Of young men and
women who had much to give and
who, under the power of the domi-
nant note Of the whole period, the
evangelization of the world in this
generation.-which is the motto OF
the Student Volunteer Movement,
gave il up willingly. The work was
done quietly and without undue G.
motion. The array Of speakers in
cluded the best in the cOuntry-all
men with a message. The emphasis
was, of course, put on the need OF
men and women-volunteer the
foreign field; but the need at home,
in Christian work and in the various
professions, was not overlooked.
The aim of the whole meeting was,
first of all. TO get the Christians
outlook.
In one group from one OF the
larger Eastern Universities there
was young student who came TO
the final delegation meeting of the
period, held on Sunday night fol-
lowing the big meeting His i'm
preston Of the Convention and its
power had not been favorable. He
owned to being impressed by the
"bigness" Of the thing, but his own
soul had failed to get its inspira-
ton. He confessed to the need of
men in the foreign fields, he saw
the immediate character Of the de-
mand, but for him il had stopped
there. The link connecting him
with this need had not appeared.
He came into this delegation meet
ing half discouraged. II came his
turn to speak,-to tell frankly and
plainly just what the Convention
had meant to him. There was
hesltating pause,-and then these
simple sentences:
Fellows, | don't know what's the
matter with me, haven't had tears
in my eyes for ten years-not since
one of my very dear friends died.
But ! can't keep them back tonight.

Mental Processes In the Brain.

We have no facts which at present wiA enable us to locate the mental processes in the brain any better than they were located fifty years ago That the mental processes may be due to cerebral activities we may believe but with what anatomical elements the individual mental processes may be connected we do not know. Not withstanding our ignorance, 1t would appear best and most scientific that we should not adhere to any of tho chronological systems, however seien- tifle they may appear to be on the surface. We should be willing 10 stand with Brodmann. believing that mind is function or an attribute ot the brain as a whole. or is a concoms- tant of cerebral operations, but l al least am unwilling to stand with the histological localizationists on the ground of a special mental process for special cerebral areas or for spe cial cerebral cell groups.-Shepherd Ivory Franz. in Science.
