Cider Institute : its Origin and Objects. 15 



With reference to the scientific staff, the Governors have held 

 one meeting and have asked Mr. F. J. Lloyd, F.C.S., F.I.C., to 

 whom so much is already due, to undertake the post of non- 

 resident Director for the next two years, and have appointed 

 Mr. B. T. P. Barker, M.A., of Gonville and Caius College, 

 Cambridge, who, after an exceptionally creditable career at the 

 University, has made the subject of yeasts and ferments his 

 particular study, to the post of resident Assistant Director, for 

 a similar period. At the end of that time the Governors will 

 be in a better position than at present for estimating the 

 scientific requirements of the place. 



Thus the Institute is now fairly launched. It is beginning, 

 as most things do which really last, in only a small way, but 

 the potentialities are great; and it is hoped that its career 

 may be one of increasing usefulness^ not only to this generation 

 but to others which are to follow.
