Ancient

Sphere
Their"
Ideas
in
Regard
to
Universe
Prof.
Otis
J.
Todd
at
the
Department
of
Classics,
University
of
British
Columbia,
continued
his
series
of
extension
lectures
at
First
Presbyterian
Church
last
lon
Qf
andent
Qt
tori
In
regard
to
the
size
and
shape
of
the
earth
and
Its
relation
to
the
universe,
the
extent
of
time
and
the
development
of
man
through
the
iges.
Prof.
Todd
prefaced
his
dli-ourse
with
reference
to
some
of
he
works
of
Aristotle,
particularly
lis
treatise
on
government.
The
ncient
Greeks
had
entered
upon
iany
realms
of
thought
Including
such
subjects
as
zoology,
literary
criticism,
science
of
geometry
and
even
the
atomic
theory.
They
were
possessed
of
mental
quickness
anc
-ere
able
to
give
scientific
treatment
to
accumulated
facts.
Homer,
who
lived
"some'
sevei
centuries
before
Christ,
had
con-:elved
of
the
earth
as
a
flat
dlsl
f
land
and
sea
but
some
tim
later
Aristotle
had
expressed
con
f
ldence
that
it
was
a
.sphere.
Late
his
had
become
an
accepted
fac
by
the
Greeks
although
there
w:
-ome
difference
of
opinion
as
t
whether
tlw
earth
rotated
itself
c
the
universe
went
around
It.
Poso
donius
had
deduced
with
remark
able
accuracy
largely
on
the
bast
of
astronomical
observation
anc'
geometric
assumption,
that
thi
earth
was
26,000
to
28,000
miles
h
circumference.
Strangely
enough
this
theory
of
the
world
belnr
round
had,
apparently,
been
late
.
lost
sight
of,
being
revived
only
about
the
time
of
Columbus.
There
were
only
scattered
refer
ences
to
the
ancient
Greek
conception
as
to
how
old
the
earth
and
universe
might
be.
Four
or
flv
centuries
before
Christ
a
wrltei
had
referred
to
4t
as
30,000
yearf
old.
Plato
had
mentioned
9,000
years,
Development
of
Man
As
to
the
state
of
mankind
ir.
primitive
times,
there
had
evidently
been
two
schools
of
thought
one
that
there
had
been
a
gol
den
age
In
prehistoric
times
and
that
man
had
deteriorated
through
j
silver
and
bronze
ages
down
to
tin
Iron
age.
Virgil
had
given
a
nsv
twist
by
prophesying
the
return
o.
a
happier
state,
that
the
Iron
age
would
disappear
and
the
golden
age
return.
On
the
other
hand
Horace
had
likened
early
man
tc
wild
animals,
expressing
the
opinion
that
there
had
been
gradual
Improvement
with
various
stage?
of
advancing
civilization
and
development
along
diversified
lines.

that

that

In

felt

that

counted

to
take

action
that

Mr.

referred

fact

that

than

Miss
