The request was made that each would mark off on the list of fifty-six subjects the seven that seemed to him to represent the most wonderful : It fs reported that about 700 of the scientists reported.

The three next most popujar “wonders, list of ten, were, in succession: (@) The Panama Canal, ) synthetic chemistry. * Prof. Witt has named the following: (1) The dirigible balloon; (2) the jubmarine boat; (4) the attainment of the North Pole— had he written a few months later he might have included the South Pol also—and the absolute zero of temperature, the latter approached within a sree; (6) wireless telegraphy; (6) the transmission of wire, and (7) color photography.

They would have but vague notions as to what dirigible balloons might be like, Diesel engines, vaccine therapy, the me- teoritic hypotheses, carborundum, the side-chain theory, anaphylaxis, unit characters, dominant and meaning terms, or terms quite lacking their The entire coterie of new sciences associated with these words-—supplemented in each case by a more or less elaborate termin- ology of allied worde—has sprung into being in the brief interval that has elapsed since these great expositors of nineteenth century acience died.
