...Byerly's "Calculus of Variations" is the first of a proposed series of small volumes dealing with mathematical subjects of special interest to physicists. "Genetics and Eugenics," by Professor W. E. Castle '93, is a textbook for students of biology and a work of reference for animal and plant breeders. "The Order of Nature" is a thesis by L. J. Henderson '98, assistant professor of Biological Chemistry in the University, which seeks to reconcile scientific conclusion with the results of philosophic thought. A. B. Lamb, Ph.D. '03, Assistant Professor of Chemistry and Director of the University Chemical Laboratory, publishes...
...establishment of a proper budget for the School has been and is still impossible, owing to the extreme difficulty, of adjusting fairly and in proper proportions the expense of the heating, lighting, and power plant owned and run by the School, but serving, also, all the surrounding institutions. The following figures tell the story: 1912-13, surplus, $11,240 1913-14, deficit, 35,930 1914-15, surplus...
...present, six stations are to be established. One will be at the works of the New England Gas and Coke Company in Somerville, where the fundamental theoretical and practical principles of fuels and combustion will be studied. At Niagara Falls, at the plant of the Exolon Manufacturing Company, there will be opportunities for work in electro-chemistry and high temperature furnaces. The application of electricity at low temperatures, and the general principles involved in paper making will be illustrated at the Eastern Manufacturing Company in Bangor, Me. The Atlas Cement Company, of Allentown, Pa., will afford extraordinarily good advantages...
After the student has gone the round of these six stations and worked in each plant under the direction of the professor who is permanently located there, he will round out his chemical studies by further investigations in Boston. An important feature of the plan is that each station maintains a research laboratory where men who have graduated from the course or other competent chemists will pursue investigations on problems presented by the particular industry where the station is. It is the bringing of the school into the industry and of the industry into the school that is the striking...
...Flying Corps will make an inspection trip at the invitation of Ex-Governor Eugene Noble Foss through the B. F. Sturtevant factories at Hyde Park and at Jamaica Plain this afternoon. At Hyde Park is an aeroplane motor factory and at Jamaica Plain an assembling plant for aeroplanes. Members will receive practical demonstration in the mechanical side of aeronautics...
