The next general meeting of the Medico-Psychological Association of Great Britain and Ireland has been fixed for Thursday, May 10th, and will be held under the presidency of Dr. J. B. Spence, at 11, Chandos-street, Cavendish-square, W., at 4 P.M. Much interest attaches to Dr. H. Maudsley's paper on “The New Psychology,” which will take the form of critical remarks on the methods and aims of the new psychology, especially in reference to children and psycho-physical research, for not only is the subject an important one, but it is intimated that several psychologists and others interested in metaphysics will take part in the discussion. Dr. A. W. Campbell has promised to give a microscopic demonstration illustrating the arrangement of nerve fibres and nerve cells in the cerebral cortex of a series of idiots' brains, and Dr. W. J. Koenig will contribute a paper in English on “ Pupillary Anomalies in Paralysed and Non-paralysed Idiot Children and their Relation to Hereditary Syphilis.” On the evening of the day previous to the general meeting the Educational Committee will meet at 36, Queen Anne-street, while in the forenoon and early afternoon of May 10th other committee meetings will be held at Chandos-street. In the evening members will dine together at the Café Royal, Regent-street, at 7 P.M. Tickets for the dinner can be obtained (price 7s. 6d., exclusive of wine) from the honorary general secretary.
