Abstract: The Law Journal was, at the time, the first and only local legal publication on our island. Its existence was indicative of a lacuna, one which academics would not fill. It took a group of law students, balancing their studies and other commitments, to organise such a publication.

Abstract: "IF it is really the case", writes the Editor of "Britain Today" in the July, 1945 number, ''that wars are turning points between epochs, then we are standing on the threshold of a new epoch whose character we have yet to discover or, better sill, create," and, indeed our little island forms no exception. Postwar reconstruction plans, proposed changes, indicative of that health spirit which characterizes nations conscious of their role in the great drama of international upheaval - all point out to the fact that we who have lived through some of the worst pages of the last war, feel quite prepared to shoulder the task that we who have lived through some of the worst pages of the last war, feel quite prepared to shoulder the task of participating in the general re-birth and desire for the New. This intellectual epidemic has left no field unexplored.

Abstract: PERHAPS out of all the makes which now only constitute appropriate epitaph to the great
legal luminaries of the past-perhaps the one most familiar to Law Students is that of Judge
Paolo De Bono. His "Storia della Legislazione in Malta" and his "Fallimento nel Diritto
Maltese" form part of the curriculum of the legal studies carried out in our University. I need,
therefore, make no introduction; his works have ensured, maybe, perennial fame. But can we
say that we know him? His legal works and his elaborate judgments stand forth in perpetual
testimony of his acumen and the heights of legal doctrine to which he did attain. But to know
the man, we have to review the "ups and downs" of his life, the unostentatious work which he
silently and perhaps unremuneratively performed his efforts to tread the path of virtue by
giving counsel and assistance to the needful and in general, all the elements which reflect on
the inward life, on the Spirit - for the Spirit makes the man.

Abstract: I WAS asked to discuss the problems of Blood Grouping with reference to paternity, but I suggested a change of subject in order to avoid the impression that Forensic Medicine was the
only common ground for the legal and the medical professions. There is much in common also in the problems of Social Medicine. The University has been, and is bound to remain. The intellectual leader of the country; with the restitution of Self Government its importance will
increase ; many of our law givers will come out of it. It is therefore proper that students of law, as possible legislators of the future, should be acquainted with the problems of health with reference to social life.
