XIV. Learned Institutions. 



Compiled by the Publishing Committee. 



A very brief summary of the learned institutions relating to 

 science is here given. For detailed information, publications issued

 the data was compiled in the summer of 1925 ; the personal accounts, 

 however, have mostly been revised and are up to date.
