The| Notice is hereby given that the pyramids of Egypt, the- hanging gardens of Babylon, the art, sculp- turing, language, and philosophy of Greece, and the government and organization of Rome, Dunn said, were evidences of con- tributory progress. “But for 700 years after the fall of Rome,” the speaker pointed out, “the world was thrown into mental darkness. The Saracens were the only people to show ad- vancement during this period. Following the Crusades, however, there began a period of European | enlightment. Iniversities were built. The philosophy of Aris- totle was studied with the attempt to harmonize it with~ Christianity. The movement was known as scholasticism.” Galileo was an outstanding sci- entist who opened the way for revolutionary ideas, Mr. Dunn said, but still the world was re- luctant towards accepting ‘new theories of life. Even Joan of Are, who lived two hundred years later, he mentioned, was persecut- ed by the extreme inflexible think- ers of the day. “But the world naw is making prpgress,” according to Mr. Dunn's k upon the problem.
