The modern attitude toward the
study of science is in reality a
medieval discovery, Etiemne Gilson,
professor of medieval philosophy in
the University of Paris, said yestsr-
day, speaking in the Lydia M'It -
delssohn theater on "The Thir-
teenth Century Oxford School."
"It is not true to consider the
Renaissance as a denial of all that
had been thought in the M ddie
Ages," said Gilson. "It is the gen--
erally admitted view that the be-
ginning of modern philosophy was.
a great break from medieval
thought," he pointed out. Des-
cartes and Bacon, who represented
the new movement, expounded
what were thought to be com-
pletely new systems of philosophy.
Two Earlier Schears.
t escartes recognized that knowl-
edge has to be of the mathematical
type to be of value, Gilson ex-
plained, and Bacon showed that it
is the business of man to deter-
mine the laws of nature.
However, two scholars of an ear-
lier period realized a very similar
system of philosophy, Gilson said.
They were Robert, Bishop of Lin-
coln, and Roger Bacon. Robert,
Bishop of Lincoln, was in 1195, a
professor at the Oxford school,
which had been established only
a short time before when political
difficulties kept English students
from crossing into France to attend
the University of Paris. He was a
versatile scholar.
This early teacher, Gilson went
on, developed an advanced theory
of form and matter in his attempt
to give the scripture a rational in-
terpretation.

VANCOUVER, B. C., Nov. 7.-
Hope was virtually abandoned to-I
day for six flyers missing in north-
ern British Columbia.
Search for Capt. E. J. A. Burke
and two companions, missing since '
Oct. 11, when they left Liard River
Post for Atlin, has been temporari.
ly abandoned. With little fooi'
their chances for safety in the rug-
ged, storm-swept country are con-
sidered slight.
Between Ritedale and Prince Ru-
pert, on the provinice's Pacific coast
Pilot Robin Rena':an and two com-I
panions, flying from Vancouver tcl
uid in the Burke quest, have been
inissi.g since Oct. 28.
Burke's companions were Air'
Ingineer Emil Kading and B
Marten, a prospector, while Air En-
gineer Frank :Hatcher and Sam
Clerf of Seattle, a prospector, were
with Henahan.
A plunge into some rugged moun-
tain side may have been the fate
of the Burke trio, while the wa;erN
of one of the dangerous coast
channels may hide the late uf
Renahan and his companions.
Pilot Frank Dorbrandt has spent
a fortnight searching out of Atlin
for Burke, in the worst flying
weather, and now has given up the
hunt and returned to Anchorage,
Akl1aska. However, a Treadwell-Yu-
kon. Co. plane en route to Mayo,
Yul.Qn territory, with mail, will re-
turn to Atlin if another plane is
sent to help in the search.
Pilot Anscel Ecltmann, in his sea-
plane Wrangell, left Prince Rupert
Thursday to look for Renahan. Ap-
plication has been made to Ottawa
by the Airland Manufacturing Co.
for assstance from the Royal Ca-
nadian. Air Force. Meanwhile Ca-
nadian patrol be~ats are scouting
the coast on the lookout for Ren-
ahan.
