Abstract
THE expression “mere machine” is Prof. Cushny's, not mine. One is glad to learn from Prof. Bayliss that this is not to be interpreted too literally. We all look forward to the time when the expression vital energy can be expunged from our vocabulary, but whether the modern thecry helps us to the realisation of this ideal renewed research alone can show. That Prof. Cushny's theory is in the direction of simplification is a matter of opinion.
