A TOPICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY FOR THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY PRIZE ESSAY CONTEST* I. W. WADE,NEWYORKUNIVERSITY, NEWYORKCITY

During the past two years the author has had occasion to assist students in obtaining references for the American Chemical Society Prize Essay Contest. It was thought that this list might prove valuable to both students and teachers and with this in mind, the following bibliography was revised and enlarged. Students should not try to read entirely any hook. It is far better to examine each book with regard to the preface, table of contents, chapter headings, and index in order to find relevant material. Short notes, comments, or quotations should be made on uniform filing cards or loose leaves in order that they may he shifted when the material is being organized. Unless a student is particularly interested in one of the subjects, it is recommended that a short essay be written on each of the six topics in order to discover which can be treated best. In the author's classes last year the students submitted one essay each week for six weeks preceding the closing date of the contest. A t the end of this time, the best essay of the six was selected by the teacher and the student in conference. This paper was then revised or entirely rewritten with additional material before being submitted for the elimination contest. For additional information concerning the contest write to Mr. Pan1 R.
