Eminent scientists from all over the United States and several from Europe are attending ses- sions which will last for four weeks. Latest developments in the science of chemistry are being presented by the seventy-five lecturers and instruc- tors who comprise the faculty of the institute. Popular knowledge of the meaning of science is the aim of the institute, according to Dr. Frank C. Whitmore, director, and topics have been chosen to interest the general public. "The institute has been organized," said Dr. Whitmore, "to make chem- ists better known to themselves and to the public. It is not designed to direct chemical opinion nor to compete with colleges in the work of education. Several agencies have contributed in recent years toward a better under- standing by the layman of the prob- lems of the chemist. This understand- ing, however, is not what it should be and the institute regards this phase of its work as one of its chief prob- lems." Miss Grace Margerum, 544 Chest- nut street, is visiting relatives in the East. She will be away for three weeks. --_---- Miss Ethel Theis of New Orleans was a recent guest in the home of Miss Grace Margerum, 54 Chestnut street.
