Abstract

WE are conducting science classes on the lines of communication in France, and it has been suggested to us that some of your readers might care to loan students' microscopes for use in this work. If any who possess such instruments care to help us in this way, I shall be glad to hear from them. It will be understood that the instruments will be carefully kept and returned intact when finished with.
