The Swampscott Meeting It is the earnest wish of the officers of the Division t o represent the wishes of a majority of the members, and to arrange for each meeting the most acceptable program possible. At the Detroit meeting of the Division last September, the feeling was expressed that the teaching of analytical chemistry and, particularly,

research in analytical chemistry are under-emphasized in America a t the present time. The Secretary was instructed to arrange a Symposium on this general topic for the St. Louis Meeting. Early in October the Senate of Chemical Education and the Contributing Editors of the JOURNAL were requested to suggest sub-topics and speakers for the proposed symposium. Acting upon the returns of this letter ballot, the secretary arranged the program as indicated above. Plans for the Swampscott Meeting, in September, 1928, are already under way. To assist the Secretary in arranging the Divisional program, each member of the Division is urged to send suggestions on the form below.
