THE CEREBRUM 



(6) The anterior commissure connects the olfactory and certain portions of the 

 temporal lobes. It pursues a course through the anterior wall of the third ventricle 

 anterior to the pillars of the fornix.

 projection-fibers from sensory cortex; a, h, c, collaterals. (Adapted from Cajal.) 



(c) The hippocampal commissure ia formed in the hippocampus of one side and 

 ends almost wholly in the same structure of the opposite side. It is closely con- 

 cerned with the sense of smell. 



Mode of Development of the Cerebrum. — In early embryonic 

 life the nervous system first presents itself as a dorsal tube, known as
