Kearl, Logan, Utah. Dear Mr. Kearl: It affords mo considerable pleas, tiro to glvo my opinion of Professor Hickman's lecturo given to tho Mu-tuals Mu-tuals of tho Sixth ward December 10, 1914. I havo never attended In my llfo an Illustrated lecturo along theso lines whore the slides used wore as clear cut and ns useful In Illustrating Illustrat-ing tho points as were tho slldea Professor Hickman used. Tho Illustrated Illus-trated part of this lecturo Is, therefore, there-fore, a feature which has not been surpassed in my experience. In a general way I have kept up with tho larger movements and tho latest theories along tho lines of ns-tronomy ns-tronomy nnd this lecturo I believe in genernl Is abovo criticism from tho standpoint of error. Tho theoretical knowledge of astronomers of world renown Is given out to tho nudlcnco in a simple and comprehensive way. Tho lecturo Is brimful of truth and Bhould certainly bo an Intellectual treat to all thoso Interested In tho .unlvorBO about us. .heartily recommend this lecture to alSyho aro Inclined to spend nn ovenlnfhfcjr Intellectual advancement, as woll as. entertainment.
