Lateral Surface of cerebral Hemisphere 1) This well known fact, which the researches of Golgi, Ramon y Cajal, Van Gehuch- TEN, E,ETZius and Koelliker elucidated, has been recently emphasized by Eetzius, The Principles of the Minute Struc- ture of the Nervous System, etc., Croonian Lecture, Proc. Eoy. Soc, Sept. 23, 1908. I discussed the morphological significance of this fact in: Notes on the Olfactory Centre, Proceedings of the Inter- colonial Med.
