READING FOR THE SCIENTIST
British Society Is to Make an Effort
to Furnish II In a Form Prae-
tieally Condensed.

The old subject of systematic sci-
cntifc publications and the object of
facilitating the scientists access to
the literature that he especially de-
sires, was again brought up recently,
this time before the Faraday society
OF London. There is at present a
great deal of duplication of the work
Of abstracting for the ordinary sci
entifc journals, as distinguished
from purely abstract journals, such
as Science Abstracts. This is rather
an advantage, since one abstract
supplements another and serves as
check upon the personal equation
which always figures largely in such
work. 1t is understood that the
board of scientific societies in Great
Britain is planning to publish
weekly journal containing announce
ments of papers read at scientific
meetings and other current litera-
ture. 1t is contended by SOME, how
ever, that the greatest benefit is to
be derived from the joint meetings
of societies to discuss subjects of
mutual interest and to publish the
proceedings in two or more publi-
cations.

The committee ON geological in
- - lforpia state oil
OF defense, IS seeking to popularize
the shad, which are so unappreciated
there that they are shipped east.
The shad was introduced in the San
Joaquin and Sacramento rivers from
the East between 1871 and 1880.
When not abundant it sold from
20 to 25 cents a pound, and the de-
mand was great. At that time
money had twice the purchasing
power it has now. Before this pc
riod, however, the price was higher,
for it sold for $3.50 a pound, and
in some instances fish brought $40
and $15.
As the introduced fish became
more abundant the price dropped to
ten, five, and even two cents a pound
AT this price it became unfashion-
able to eat shad. The present price
is 25 cents for a fish, whereas in
New York the cost is 81 or more

the front line three Divisions extend
ing from a point about ~ miles north
Of st. Die to a point about 20 miles
southeast Of Belfort, or to the Swiss
border. st. Die claims some of the
honor of having named America.
Americus Vespuei lived there when
the name was furnished.
On August 20 we moved to Ligny-
en-Bouois, and five days later to
Benoitevaux, small town between
Verdun and st. Mihiel My friend,
the former commanding officer at
Blois, Joined us just before we left
Remiremout, having been assigned to
the corps as chief gas officer. At
Benoitrvaux plans were being rapid
ly developed for wiping out the st.
1 Mihiel salient, but fate decrecd that
| should not take part in the action.
Orders came from General Head
quarter for me to report to 7th Corps
Headquarters as chief gas officer of
that corps. This took me back to
Remiremout, where | arrived Sept. 6.
New Divisions were holding the line
formerly held by the Divisions of the
5th Corps.
This corps remained at Remire-
mout until October 4, when we moved
to Benoitevaux, following the trail of
the 9Th corps. On Nov. 10 General
Headquarters orders reached me to
report at once to Headquarters 9th
Corps as chief gas officer. The 5th
Corps had since Sept. 26 conducted
the center of the organization in the
Meuse-Argonne offensive, the most
important part in the great drive that
caused Germany to beg for peace. |
found my old Corps at Nenart, a lit
tie shell torn town about 18 miles
southeast of Sedan, reaching them at
the eleventh hour on the 11th day of
the 11th month. They had followed
the Boche, driving him from position
to position, ever advancing and beat
ing him at every turn, fighting a little
and making that little count for
much; and when | reached them the |
fight was not half out Of them but |
the clock had struck the final hour.
Then came the move back from the
war-torn battlefield and the wrecked
villages to civilization, for we were
not chosen to go to Germany. Re-
turning, l stopped at Verdun over
night. Poor Verdun, that invincible
city, made so only by reason of its
strong forts and underground places
of abode. The city above ground is
filled with wreckage.
Next l went to Metz, a city in
Lorraine that had been German since
1871, and except for the many French
soldiers, French flags and few A
merican flags, still appeared almost
entirely German. No poverty or fam
inc was to be seen. The city was
clean, orderly, and shops were very
well stocked. l had very good meal
at a hotel, which cost me franks
(91 cents) about the same price it
would have cost in France.
From Metz / recrossed the battle
area to Nancy and continued on to
our new headquarters (Nogent) ar
irving here Nov. "a.
Now that it is all over l am anxious
to get back to my girls. l did not
think of going home before the end
came, and now think very little of
anything else. l was so in hopes that
would get back for Christmas but
no chance now. The indications do
not look bright for an early home
coming for me.
