Abstract
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen, The time has come when the honour and privilege to deliver the final address at this, the 8th Symposium on Animal Reproduction, sponsored jointly by the University of Illinois and the American Society of Animal Science assumes its most onerous aspects. In your introductory remarks, you, Mr. Chairman, made allusion to the fact that the University had done me the honour of conferring upon me a Doctorate in Science at Commencement, during its Centennial Year. I am deeply conscious of the honour and wish, once again, to express my sincere appreciation of this rare distinction.
Doubtless, some of you may have previously experienced the restrained dignity and ease of our present surroundings. But I expect that those of you, who, like myself, are enjoying the hospitality of the President and the members of the University of Illinois for the first time, will not have failed, during the past two days, to assimilate the pleasant atmosphere which abounds here.
