THE SCIENCE CONGRESS.
Professor David, president of the Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science, which recently concluded its labours in Melbourne, told on interviewer that tho congress, for tho importance, of the work accomplished and the enjoyable character of the visit, had yielded to none in tho history of the association. In view of the forthcoming arrival of tho British Association for the Advancement of Science in Australia, in August, 1914, it was a matter for congratulation that, at this congress, over GOO members had joined the association. The papers contributed were not only of great scientific interest, but in many cases of considerable economic importance. "Melbourne," continued Professor David, "is proverbial for its hospitality. The enthusiasm shown in this meeting is a foretaste of what may bo expected when the leaders nf scientific thought from the Old World meet the scientific workers of Australasia in the groat gathering arranged for Australasia la Auiurt, 1914."-
