Modern Zoology.

In his presidential address before
the American Association for the Ad
vancement OF Science, now printed
in Science, Dr. Edmund B. Wilson OF
Columbia university discussed the
more pressing problems of modern
zoology. In regard to Darwinism, he
said: "Undeniably there is a large
measure of truth in the contention
that natural selection still belongs
rather to the philosophy than to the
science of biology. In spite of many
important experimental and critical
studies on the subject Darwin's con-
ception still remains today in the
main what 1t was In his own time, a
theory, a logical construction. based
1t Is true on a multitude Of facts, yet
still awaiting adequate experimental
test. Simple though the principle is,
its actual effect in nature is deter
mined by conditions that are too intri-
cate and operate through periods too
great to be duplicated in the expert
mental laboratory. Hence it is that
even after more than fifty years of
Darwinism the time has not yet come
Tor true estimate of Darwin's pro-
posed solution of the great problem"

Scientists of Many Kinds Have Found
ThIe One of Most Fascinating Of
Problems.

The search for the elixir of youth
passed away with the age of fable; the
search for the secret of life goes on
with ever-increasing persistence. The
Harvard professor who has just sur
prised" Baltimore audience with a
theory on the subject, is only one of
host. For every biologist and physi-
ologist today the problem looms large.
Chemists are thinking of 1t. Even the
physicists have it on their mind. To
all of them it looks simple, and yet
is enormously complex. Given such
substances as oxygen, hydrogen, nitro
gen, phosphorus, sulphur and what not
in the inanimate world, how does it
happen that when they come together
under organic conditions life should
result? Do they get busy" on their
own initiative. or does a so-called "vi-
tai energy" different from physical
energy, intervene to make them alive?
Is 1t their partnership that gives rise
to life, or do they already live, IL
with a lower order of vitality, in ad-
vance of the combination?
To questions like these several sorts
Of scientists are trying to give an
swers, and they have more than one
method. One is to see the thing out,
the other is to reason 1t out. The en-
PRIESTS bring their microscopes to
bear on the organic cell with keen at
tention to parts and workings. They
insist on studying the riddle where 1t
shows itself; they believe that where
organic conditions prevail vital phe-
nomena must appear; many Of them
even hold, with Schaefer, that It will
be possible to "synthesize" in the
laboratory. The rationalists. on the
other hand, despairing of aid from the
microscope, are content to ind out
where life comes from. And even here
two schools of thought have taken
the royal road. BY the one 1t Is main
tanned that life does not start up sud-
denly in the living body, but Is more
or less latent" in all matter. That
hypothesis is implicit in the hylozoism
of the ancient Greeks: it has been ex-
banded in modern Germany by the
Nagelis and the Haeckels; it shows
itself once more in the view repre-
sented by Professor Henderson at Bal
timore. Then there is the cosmic
theory championed by Arrhenius. In
his cosmogony the vital germ which
started organic evolution came to us
from other worlds. or from the spaces
between, waited thence to the earth
by the impelling power of solar light.

New eeadstrIna Fastener.

The clasps or fastenings ordinarily
employed on strings of beads, such as
the popular pearl necklaces, are objec-
tionable not only for insecurity in
many instances. but also because they
make a break in the continuity, and
when they slip to the front of the
wearer detract from the appearance.
1t has been suggested that possibly
some form of fastener might be de.
vised which would include as its ele-
