Many listeners must have welcomed the recent debate on Vivisection.

The rather sermonising tone adopted by the champion of anti-vivisection was not exactly -a help to the cause, but the sincerity of his appeal was obvious. His opponent seemed almost solely concerned with the intellectual aspect of the question, which, considering the nature of the subject under debate, considerably weakened his ease. I suggest that another debate in the future would not come amiss, since this is so vexed a- matter and one- upon which many listeners really find it difficult to decide.
