He said that no apology was needed for his choice of subject, since health is the foundation of all happiness; moreover, it is customary at the annual meetings for the president to refer to the recent advances in science, and as the progress as well as the future achievements of medicine depend to a great extent upon the help that she has had and may yet get from the other sciences, it was only suitable for him to give a review of the important contributions made by some of these other sciences in recent times towards the advancement of medicine.
