general biology. Also in Paris, but not connected with 

 the ministry of public instruction, are a considerable 

 number of other chemists of distinction, including 

 LE BEL, G. LEMOINE, SCHLOESING, SCHLOESING FILS, 

 and MUNTZ. 



In 1914-15 the courses in chemistry given in Paris 

 were as follows: 



I. Faculty of Sciences. General Physics: Mme. 

 CURIE, a lons in Gases and the Phenomena of Radio- 

 activity." General Chemistry: LE CHATELIER, "The 

 Properties of the Metals and the General Laws of Chem- 

 istry." Chemistry: URBAIN, "Thermochemistry and 

 the Energetics of Chemical Reactions." Organic 

 Chemistry: HALLER, "The Aromatic Series." Physical 

 Chemistry: PERRIN, "General Physical Chemistry." 

 Applied Chemistry: CHABRIE, " Fuels, Precious Metals 

 and the Manufacture of Alcohol." Biological Chemistry: 

 BERTRAND, "The Chemical Composition of Living 

 Organisms." 



In addition to these courses, numerous conferences 

 were held, as follows: OUVRARD, "Technology;" 

 GUICHARD, "The Study of Original Memoirs in General 

 Chemistry, and the Metalloids and Metals;" V. AUGER, 

 "Inorganic Chemistry;" BLAISE, "Organic Chemistry, 

 General Principles and Study of the Aliphatic Series;" 

 FERNBACH, "Microbes in the Fermentation Industry, 

 and Alcoholic Fermentation." 



II. Institut de Chimie Appliquee. In this institute, 

 under the direction of CHABRIE, are given certain courses 

 supplementary to those of the faculty of sciences, in- 

 cluding elementary qualitative and quantitative analysis 

 by Binet du JASSONNEIX, qualitative organic analysis 

 and organic preparations by FREUNDLER, analysis and 

 preparation of industrial products by MARQUIS, and 

 physical chemistry and electrochemistry by MARIE.
