Abstract
SINCE its foundation in 1881, the Society of Chemical Industry has held its annual meeting in one or other of the many geographical centres where its sections are located. This year's meeting—the forty-fifth—was held in London on July 19–23, and differed from all previous meetings in taking the form of a congress of chemists, no fewer than seventeen chemical organisations taking part in it. For this reason, everything was done on an unusually large scale, and save for the physical weariness which inevitably follows from such an orgy of conferences, dinners, excursions, and social functions, the week must have been one of unmitigated profit and enjoyment to the very large number of chemists and their friends who attended.
