The first of the monthly sumrnre
lectures, under . the auspices of this

evening, April, 29, by Mr. , A. Camp
bell, I. P. S,, .of Kincardine: The. -
.success of the season's course(, lec-
turesdepends very largely upon the
character of the opening cne, and in
this respect the ►ua:na.ers have every
rees.ni to be hopeful,•a:x'1blr. Campbell's
lecture was all that could t'e desired.
The subject of the lecture was' " The
growth of Science and the progress of
linoivledge.” After reviewing, in a
brief but comprehensive way, the lead-
ing inventions and showing their bear.
ing upon the progress and pre,sperity , '
of, humanity, the speaker weal, ore to
show the vast fields of research which
have been. opened up .by such inven-
ventions as the te'eseope and the, mic-
roseepe, the one ,making us feel • our
insig.liI Cance when looking at the mil
Bots c;f worlds which peopiespace, and ,
among which our world is as a grain of -
sand on the seashore, the other re-
deeming. all by showing us a world in
a drop of ,water peopled with its [nil -
lions of inhabitants. He, thea re-
viewed the lines of logia i„if the great
leen showing what tl et' have done for
us and pointing out our responsible to
.future genera:ionst and to the future'of '
our country, and showing the position
that country occupied anion; the'
nations, closing with'an-eloquent ap-
peal to use our hest energies for the •
advancement sold pInsperity.of our
nritionel land. The'whole lecture was
fill] c f Splendid• 1de(is a1111 well .calcu-
lated to lead to deeper thought and re-
search. It is iinpos.ible to do it jus-
tice in so brief a 'sketch as it must
