One of the most interesting of a» valuable series of lectures under the auspices of the Caledonlan Club is that to be delivered this evening by Principal Robertson, L.L.D., of Prince of Wales College, on “Mell- tnl Development." The lecturer i will show, step by step, how the ' capacities for movement and per- ception of the senses develop, the impressions brought in through the senses being gradually retained and The impressions which resemble each I other are called association, and when recalled are called recollec- tion. In being able to distinguish impressions of sense we have in- tellect, while in forming consis- tions among the impressions we have imagination. intellect and imagination are the two poles of thinking. Dr. Robertson will elab- orate these points, and in non-tech» nlcal language make them easily understood by the average lay- nllnd. The Caledonian Club is
