Dashiell addressed the Faculty Philosophy of Science club in the lounge room of the Graduate club Wednes day night on the "Relations of Psychology to Philosophy." . Presentation of viewpoints demonstrated that, "psychology is the application of methods of natural science in relation to human and sub-human forms." Viewed from the historical perspective, philosophy was said to be used as a general curiosity concerning the sun, moon, stars and so forth. As the study of natural events advanced, sub ject matter became isolated, sDecializations arose and as hings became more elaborate, throw-offs came about and so the natural sciences sprang from the mother study, philoso phy. It was brought out by Dr. Da shiell that "The psychology of today has no direct metaphysi car interest . . . The pure psy chology of the twentieth cen tury is not concerned with ethi cal problems." Dr. Dashiell conducted a brief test along the lines of word as- sftciation to noint out some of the functions and interests oi psychology.
