In connection with a paper presented a t arecent meeting of the American Chemical Society on "In and Out of the Class Room with Dr. Edward William Morley,"' Dr. Mears, of the Department of Chemistry at Williams College, stated that much of the apparatus originally used by Dr. Morley is now the property of Williams College and he invited all chemists interested in Dr. Morley's work and desirous of seeing some of the apparatus used in his historical experiments to call upon him at Williamstown at any time and an opportunity will be given to inspect this exhibit. Mr. Morley wisely decided to distribute his remaining books and apparatus while living. During the last years of his life he derived great pleasure and satisfaction in placing his library and other scientific apparatus among several colleges. As a loyal alumnus of Williams he naturally favored his own college in this distribution. ' Tnrs JOURNAL, 1, 129 (1924).
