| FalOci Pulignani, a venerable prelate
| of Foligno, Italy, Overy seventy years
! of age, was returning from the Cathe-
dral to his home after celebrating
! Mass, he was set upon by gang OF
Socialist hoodlums, who knocked him

shock, both moral and physical fears
are entertained for his recovery. This

A Nun Observation-Disclosures of Sci
| ence Progress, that very admira BILE
quarterly, will note with some surprise
the account of Sister Monica Taylor
''of Glasgow University" and wonder
when that seat of learning gathered
to itself Sisterhood. AS a matter OF
fact, the distinguished scientist in
| question is Doctor of Science of
Glasgow University, but primarily a
Sister of the Convent of Notre Dame,
| DoWanhill, Glasgow. A well-known
writer of erudite papers on cytology,
| which have appeared in the quarterly
journal of microscopical science, she
has recently achieved a triumph
| which has made her name and fame
among all biological teachers, since
she has discovered what many have
sought for, the method of breeding
amoebae, those lowly living things
|
to study early in their career
