Dr. IL D. Sheldon’s address on “ The
F u tu re of Science in Am erica,” furnished
an o th e r interesting num ber in the series
of lectures, based on the developm ent of
universities and University life in Amer
ica. He spoke in substance as follows:
“ In the future we will hear much of the
p a rt science is playing in the develop
ment of our co u n try , for science has a
u tilita ria n m otive and is the key-note to
the m odern advance in civilization.
“ Foreigners say th a t the American peo
ple excel in a wide diffusion of general
knowledge. This, no d oubt is true, but
it is also true th a t America is excelled in
the q u a n tity as well as in the q u a lity of
her scientific know ledge bv some o th er
countries, especially by G erm any.
“ The reaso n sg iv en for the tact th a t wc
do not lead in science are three: F irst, we
are a new people confronted w ith eco
nomic and in d u strial problem s and have
not had time for science. This excuse,
however, is o u t g ro w n now . Second,
our educational centers are so scattered
th a t scientific men do n o t have the o p
p o rtu n ity of asso ciatin g w ith o th er
experts in their line T hird, and m ost
im p o rta n t of all, the o rg an izatio n of our
University system is not such as tends to
foster developm ent along scientific lines.
Our men of high ability are obliged to
spend their time in class room w ork and
have no leisure for scientific research.
The rem oval of th is difficulty will come
w ith the developm ent of secondary
schools which will relieve the universities
and leave them freedom for the develop
m ent of science.
“( fur ed u catio n al system for m any years
w as based on the English idea th a t a
university should sta n d for the develop
ment o f chai actcr w ithout specialization
This view is good to a certain e x ten t but
it underestim ates intelligence, the objec
tive feature in any ed u catio n al system ,
and hinders scientific advancem ent.
‘‘A nother th in g highly d etrim en tal to
scientific w ork is the fact th a t m any
of our univeisities have disregarded effi
ciency for num bers, and have come to
regard ath letic and d eb atin g victories
and social prestige as being the forem ost
things.
“ The qualities which make Americans
so effective have been developed during
the nineteenth century. At the beginning
of the last century we were sim ply an itni
ta tio n of E ngland, hut we have built up
a high sta n d a rd of civilization which has
broken dow n class distinction and has
a tta in e d an excellence of high sta n d a rd
“ The time is com ing when the student
can say th a t the United S ta te s h as a sci
entific system inferior to none in the
w orld.”
H. O. “ C hunk” Hill, In te rn a tio n a l Sec
reta ry for the Pacific C o ast, visited the
University F rid ay afternoon an d even
ing and spoke to the men in the associa
tion room a t four o ’clock. He spoke of
the w ork the C h ristian A ssociation is
doing in different p a rts of the w orld.
The C h ristian A ssociation sta n d s for ser
vice t ) men and its object is to show men
th a t the life of unselfishness is the one
th a t co u n ts after leaving school. Mr.
Hill said th a t the chief w ork of perfecting
the existing o rg an izatio n is done by s tu
dent conferences, conventions, etc. In
this connection he m entioned the Oregon-
Id ah o S ta te C onvention to be held a t
Salem, November 25, 26, 27, a n d urged
th a t the U niversity be represented there
bv a large delegation.
R ates of one and one-third fare for the
round trip will be g ra n te d and the dele
g ates will be en tertain ed by the people
of Salem and W illam ette U niversity as
hosts. The proxim ity of the se a t of the
co n v tn tio n should m ake it possible for a
dozen or tw o of men to a tte n d . H arvey
Wheeler can furnish all in fo rm atio n de
sired a b o u t the trip to Salem, and will
be glad to receive nam es of th o se who
can go.
