I9 MICROCOSM 34 Chemistry The aims of the department of chemistry are to give to students of science a technical training, to slu- dents of household economics a foundation upon which to build an understanding of their technical subjects, and to all students in the department a grasp of the spirit of science. To understand the meaning ofscience one must him- self have studied diligently some one of its branches. The details which he mustmemorize, the particular deductions which he must draw from them, the experience of ob- taining tirst-hand information by laboratory experi- ments, all of these may fade as time passes. If there re- l mains, however, an appreciation that Nature is governed by fundamental laws which can be discovered by systematic search carried on with absolute honesty, accurate observation, and rigid logic, the effort of studying chem- istry will not have been in vain, and the object ofthe teachers in this department will have been attained. -Kenneth Lamartine Mark KENNETH LAMARTINE MARK, Prryfessor m'ChemistU1, and Director zyf the School mf General Science.
