WORKS IN PROGRESS. 



The MS. of an ' Index to the Literature of 

 Thorium,' by Cavalier H. Joiiet, Ph.D., of 

 Columbia University, New York, has been ex- 

 amined by each member of yoiir committee, 

 and recommended for publication to the Smith- 

 sonian Institution. It is now being prepared 

 for printing. 



Mr. Benton Dales, of Cornell University, 

 has in preparation 'An Index to the Litera- 

 ture of the Yttrium Group of the Rare Earths.' 



Reports of progress have been received from 

 Messrs. Frank R. Fraprie and H. Carrington 

 Bolton. 



It is the sad duty of the connnittee to record 

 the death of one of its original members. Pro- 

 fessor Albert R. Leeds, Ph.D., long professor 

 of chemistry in the Stevens Institute, of 

 Technology, Hoboken, N. J. His contributions 

 to chemical bibliography include ' Indexes to 

 the Literature of Ozone,' and of ' Peroxid of 

 Hydrogen.' 



It is gratifying to note the increasing and 

 continued interest in bibliography on all sides, 

 and the committee stands ready to encourage 

 the movement in chemistry by practical assist- 



ance to those desirous of contributing to the 

 now considerable list of indexes. Address 

 correspondence to the Chairman, at the Cosmos 

 Club, Washington, D. C.
