Superior in Two Respects Dr. Dresser explained that the nachine is superior to any X-ray device now in use in two respects. It makes possible the treatment of deep-seated malignant growths in the body, including cancer, becaus the high-voltage X-rays penetrate deeply; and these rays have been | found to be more specific in thei onizing and destroying ased sues than low-volitag s.

Ancient simple services in Latin| were held in St. Mary’s, the uni- versity church, after a break of 268 years. Dr. Cyril Bailey, the public' orator, in presenting the Ambassa- dor to the Vice-Chancellor, said: ' “The two great nations, one in-| habiting a small island, the other the greater part of a huge conti-’ nent, although separated by a vast, unfriendly ocean are yet united in friendship by the community of| race and language. No small part in drawing them together has been played by the Ambassador from one country to the other. | “For three years Mr. Bingham by his tact and wisdom has bound us more closely to his country. He is a strong supporter of education ! and a trustee of several colleges. One, his peculiar love, was built| among mountains by the hands of students which has done much to promote science and agriculture.” Students and graduates, all in multi - colored academic dress, crowded the ancient church.
