SIR O. LODGE
POSSIBILITIES OF THE FUTURE. [United Press Association—By 'Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.]
LONDON, October 20. Sir Oliver Lodge, in his inaugural lecture at Westfield College, where Sister Eleanor is the Principal, said. Ultimate realities cannot be weighed and measured in laboratories. What occupies the attention of the - : pact and the artist is more real than all the things which science studies. He continued: “I look forward to the time when the average man Will attain such heights as Shakespeare, Plats, and Newton. Then there j will be even higher peaks. He is not yet quite civilised. The possibilities in. front of the , race are enormous. The world' is now so small and so knit together that it is no longer a place of international animosities.” He concludes: “The more we are together, the happier we shall he.”
