60 CONTEMPORARY SCIENCE 



Many of us remember the President's Banner at the 

 Manchester Meeting in 1915, where Science is allegori- 

 cally represented by a sorrowful figure covering her eyes 

 from the sight of the guns in the foreground. This year 

 Science is represented in her more joyful mien, encourag- 

 ing the arts and industries. It is sincerely to be hoped 

 that the future will justify our present optimism.
