"THE CREED Of THE SCIENTIST"
Talked on Early 8clence and Present
Recognition of the Relation of
Scientific Thought to the
World's Welfare.
Tho second of tho annual Sigma XI
lectures was glvon last ovonlng. at 5
o'clock In tho Tomplo thoator by Pro
fessor Webfltor of Clark unlvorslty.
Tho subjoct of hlB talk was "Tho
Croed of tho Scientist," a popular loc-
turo, and was dollvorod boforo agoodt
audlohco.
In tho lecture It was Pro(osBor
WobBtcr's objoct to Indicate tho point
of'vlow of tho sclontlst. "Tho only
truo standard that tho sclontlst can
have," ho said, "Ib to bo able to work
for tho good of mankind; to discov
er how tho coju of mankind can bost
Iim yromotod. However this point of
vlow Is comparatively rocont. Primi
tive mar. seomed not to recognize tho
nnturo of science. Ho only sought tho
moans of subsistence or of defonso.
In tlmo sclonco bogan to dovolop by
slow stagos ao4 crudo Implement
woro mado from wood and stones, yet
thoso only aided thorn In their search
for food or In dofonso. .
"Tho flret groat natural phonomonon
that Booms to havo Impressed man
kind was day and night, and along
with this tho regularity of tho move
ment of tho hoavenly bodlOB chal
lenged their attention and produced a
dcslro to know moro of thorn. Tho
sclonco of astronomy 'thus had quite
an early boglunlng. Tho wind also
led to early investigation, and Its usos
woro known early, as Its uso In sail
ing, evon though contrary to tho do
shod direction. In tho scientific in
vestigation of tho Greeks, they sought
only to satlstv tholr curiosity, rathor
than to effect iny progress thereby.
Church at Investigator.
The period f tho Dark AgOB came
in nnd solontlflo Investigation stopped
hlnii and In seeking this end thorb Is
neod of as vivid an Imagination as is
ncoded in tho study of poetry. In
addition, accuracy In the delicate tests
must exist. Statistical scientific in
vestigators mutt exorclso tho closest
of attention In their mathematical In
vestigations, as for example, in the
cooling' of tho earth and the length
of tlmo which has elapsed slnco tho
earth was in, a molten condition.
"Astro-physiCB has become a well
developed science within recent yoars.
ProviouBly mankind hought only of
tho heavmly bodies aB a whole, but
with tho dlscovory of the spectrum,
Interest haB contored on tho composi
tion of tho colostial bodioB. Great
observatdrles have beon established
for such purposes. Now, of what ubo
is all thlB? Nothing Is moro profit
able. Thorn Is groat beauty in scien
tific Investigation, nnd value as well
for most of our common improve
montH aro the products of long
thought and labor boforo tho finished
product was evolved. Porsoveranco 1b
ono of tho scientist's qualifications.
All of tho greatest scientists havo
takon mnny years to thoroughly work
out their problems.
"Tho true Ideal of this work is the
good of man. Sclonce can not Inter
pret all mystorles, but only such aB
nro of possible Interest and value to
humanity. Tho scientist behoves the
world Is good and governed by laws.
Ho Is progressive and seeks to make
life worth living."

Chrlstlanlzod tho sciences developed
also and Investigations wore carried
on with tho idea of mankind's wel
fare in mind. When the first natural
philosopher dropped the stones from
a high tower and tho results were
obtnlnod, tho doath knoll of tho old
methods of the sclonco was soundod.
"Today science is recognized overy
vrhore. International congrosses are
held to promote it. Wo are now led
to ask, What is sclonco? It 1b the
arrangement of knowlodgo into an
orderly system. It is tho business to
seek and describe knowledge for the
benefit of man. An old description In
now torms is not ,a contribution to
sclonco; but a woll organized descrip
tion of -something not before under-
stood is an addition to science. It
need not bo too technical and yet
terms relative to tho subject aro nec
essary to fully understand tho prob
lem. Tho scientist's method is from
the familiar to tho unfamiliar.

"In this way came tho evolution of
tho gyroscope. U is not a mysterious
mechanical device, but only follows
natural laws which aro given an op
portunity to operate. This 1b the
viewpoint of the scientist Motion Is
the great problem and he is seeking

great many plain evidences of tho
benefit of science before us every
