As my men- ually evanesces under f this ponderous ques- dote reputed to have oc- rein Oscar Wilde and ies. to mind. Though it e any particular bearing c, still it is interesting tse it is about these two wo cosruopolites were in ry one day. Wilde was y young at the time and doub~t as to just how he ss his reactions to the which he encountered, ng for the first time a cape by Corot he ex- Lt certainly is a good pic- stler regarded him un- , moment and then said which must have renind- crow of a bantam roos- ployment to select the great men of fiction who -were anything but "hon- orable" from the standpoint of their contemporary writers. Regard, if you will, the cases of Nietzsche: Anatole France, Gerhart Hauptman, Byron or even Tolstoi (in his earlier period). Of, if you, ish examples from our own literature consider Whitman, Paine and Theo- dore Dreiser. Even now, one can, bardly mention in any respectable gathering the name of that .early ex- ponent of truth, Tom Paine, without being subjected to stares which are anything but complementary. Antd it is but a short time ago that Theodore Dreiser and James Branch Cabell. were certainly not considered honor- able supports in thetemple of our literature. In fact, in the majority, of cases, it is only mediocrity that can gain the attribute of "honorable" with one sweep of the pen. But still I haven't sai~d what I started with the intention of saying, When the critic used the term which I have repeated so oftenr ,I am sure that he did so without thinking much' about it. And that is where he made his mistake. From what I know of the attitude of this critic and, in pair- ticular, his attitude to the writer of whom he was speaking, he undoubt- edly had no idea of the injustice wvhich he was doing her. So the story' which I related has some bearing up- on what I w hnt to say. It is that the critic should be more careful of the terms he employs. It is so easy by a single word to give an altogether erroneous impression. nics and free movies, et cetera, should be the order of the day when the an-{ niversary of R. L.

The QUaker who..made Chemist'ry a Science AVENDISH had shown that two volumes of hy- drogen and one ofoxygen always combine com- pletely to form water and nothing else. Proust, a Frenchman, had proved that 'natural and artificial carbonates of copper are always constant in composition. ' "There must be some law in this," reasoned Dalton (766- 1844), the Quaker mathematician and school teacher, That law he proceeded to discover by weighing and measuring. He fQund that each element, has a combining 'weight of its own. To explain this, he evolved his atomic theory -the atoms of each element are all. alike in size and weight; hence a combination can occur only in definite.proportions. Dalton's theory was published in I8o8. In that same year, Na- poleon made his brotherjoseph king of Spain. This was considered ,a political event of tremendous importance. But Joseph left sno lasting impression, while Dalton, by his discovery, elevated chem- istry from a mass of unclassified observations and recipes into a science. Modern scientists have gone be- yond Dalton. They have found the atom to be composed of elec- trons, minute electrical particles, In the Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company much has been done to make this theory practically 'applicable so that chemists can actually-predict the physical, chemical and elec- trical properties ofQcompounds yet. undiscovered.
