Abstract
THE twenty-fifth session of the work of the Sir John Cass Technical Institute was inaugurated on October 4, when an address was delivered by Alderman Sir Charles Wakefield, Bart. Before calling upon Sir Charles to deliver the inaugural address, the chairman of the Governors, the Rev. J. F. Marr, referred to the resignation of Dr. Keane, who had been principal for almost a quarter of a century, the appointment of Mr. Geo. Patchin as his successor, the generous support given to the work by the important companies connected with the fermentation and petroleum industries, and the gratifying record of university successes; one student has been awarded a D.Sc. for a thesis on research work carried out in the department of chemistry. Further facilities for study are being provided during the session, including a more advanced course of lectures in colloids and an advanced course of lectures on petroleum technology.
