Chemical Societies and Institutions. 7 INTRODUCTION. THEobject of this publication is to provide and maintain a list of official appointments which are held by professional chemists, and professors and teachers of chemistry. The list is arranged in two main divisions:-The first contains appointments under the various Departments of State, and professorial and teaching appointments in Great Britain and Ireland ; the second contains appointments in the Empire of India, the Dominion of Canada, the Commonwealth of Australia, and the British Colonies and Protectorates.The list of appointments of Public Analysts, confirmed by the Local Government Boards of England and Wales, of Scotland and of Ireland, under the Sale of Food and Drugs Acts, 1875-1899, which was published by the Council of the Institute of Chemistry, in November, 1904, is incorporated in the present publication. The creation of official chemical appointments is a matter with which the Council of the Institute of Chemistry is specially concerned, since the main objects of the Institute consist in the promotion of the education and the examination of pro-fessional chemists, and the registration of those who have been found to be competent.The information set forth in this publication indicates the steadily increasing demand for professional chemical services in connection with governmental and municipal administration, and the increase in the number of institutions where chemistry is taught. In order to make it as comprehensive as possible, the Council have considered it desirable to include, in addition to strictly chemical appointments, those in connection with Agriculture, Metallurgy, Assaying, and other branches of work for which chemical knowledge and skill are required. In many instances, particulars are given as to the Acts under which the appointments are made, and the regulations and conditions under which candidates for the appointments are selected.The information has been obtained from official sources, and the Council are indebted to the heads of Government Depart-ments, Registrars and Secretaries of Universities and Colleges, Official Chemists, Town Clerks, and many other officials without whose assistance and courtesy the list could not have been prepared. To make provision for the inclusion of appointments which may be made in future, mention is made of those Colonies and Protectorates in respect of which there are at present no official positions which come within the scope of the work. It is hoped that the publication may prove a useful book of reference to authorities and others interested in the applications of chemistry to purposes of State, and in the promotion of higher education in the science.As this is the first publication of the kind, the information is perhaps not in all cases complete, and it has been found necessary to postpone, until a future issue, the inclusion of some appointments particulars of which have not been received. Moreover, as changes are frequently taking place, it is probable that a few inaccuracies may appear in this edition, but, with the continued assistance of officials and the holders of appointments, every care will be taken to make future editions as accurate and reliable as possible. Suggestions which may increase the usefulness of the list will be welcomed and carefully considered. Communications should be addressed to the Registrar, Institute of Chemistry of Great Britain and Ireland, 30, Rloomsbury Square, London, W.C.Official Chemical Appointments IN GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND. 11 Great Britain and Ireland.

Page, B.A. (Cantab.). THE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE AND FISHERIES. (4,Whitehall Place, London S.W.) Among the matters with which the Board of Agricultureis concerned may be mentioned the administration of the Pertilisers and Feeding StufTs Act, and of the Sale of Food and Drugs Acts (in their relation to agricultural produce), in Great Britain, and the distribution of a grant voted by Parliament for Agricultural Education in England and Wales. Fertilisers and Feeding Sttiffs Act, 1893 (56 d 57 Vict. Chap. 56). The Fertilisers and Feeding Stuffs Act, 1893,which came into operation on the 1st of January, 1894, is an Act primarily intended to protect theinterestsof farmers andtoamendthelawwithrespect to the Sale of Fertilisers andFeeding Stuffs.Under Section 4, the Boardof Agriculture is empowered to appoint for the purposes of the Act a chief agricultural analyst. Every county council is required to, and the council of any county borough may, appoint or concur with another council or other councils in appointing for the purposes of the Act, a district agricultural analyst for its county or borough, or a district comprising the counties or boroughs of the councils so concurring. The remuneration of the district analysts is provided by the appointing authorities out of the general expenses of the counties or the rates of the boroughs respectively.The appointments asre euhiect to the approval of the Board of Agriculture, and the Act provides that no person shall while holding the office of district analyst engage in any trade, manufacture or business connected with the sale or importation of articles used for fertilising the soil or as food for cattle. Section 5provides that every buyer of any article used for fertilising the soil or as food for cattle, on payment to the district analyst of a, fee sanctioned by the appointing authority, is entitled, within ten days after delivery of the article to the buyer or receipt of the invoice by the buyer, whichever is later, to have the article analysed by the analyst, and to receive from him a certificate of the result of his analysis.Section 5 also 13 Board of Agriculture. states the manner in which samples and reference samples shall be taken and requires the analyst to report in such form, and to state the constituent parts of the sample analysed, as the Board of Agriculture may direct. Every district agricultural analyst is also required to report to the Board as they direct, the result of any analysis made by him in pursuaiice of the Act. This Section further provides that the seller or the buyer, if he objects to the certificate of the analyst, may submit a sample, with the invoice or a copy thereof, to the chief analyst on payment of a fee sanctioned by the Treasury, and be entitled to have the sample analysed by the chief analyst, and to receive from him a, certificate of the result of his analysis. In a court of law, the certificates of the chief analyst and the district analysts are accepted as suacient evidence of the facts therein stated, unless the defendant or person charged requires that the analyst be called as a witness.Section 9 makes certain provisions in respect of the application of the Act to Scotland. Section 10 provides that for the purposes of the execution of the Act in Ireland, inclusive of the appointment of a chief agricultural analyst, the Lord Lieutenant, acting by advice of the Privy Council, be substituted for the Board of Agriculture, and that the district analysts be the analysts appointed for the counties and boroughs of Ireland under the Sale of Food and Drugs Act, 1875.In pursuance of the provisions of the Act, the Board of Agriculture has from time to time framed regulations as to the samples to be taken under the Act.

TEACHERS’ COUNCIL.REGISTRATION (49 and 50, Parliament Street, London, S.W.) Under section 4 of the Board of Education Act, 1899 (62 and 63 Vict., c. 33), the consultative committee, set up by Order in Council, was authorised to frame, with the approval of the Board of Education, regulations for a register of teachers, which should he formed and kept in a manner to be provided 19 Gas Examiners and Chemists.-__ --~____~ ._.~ ~ by Order in Council: provided that the register so formed should contain the names of the registered teachers arranged in alphabetical order, with an entry with respect to each teacher, showing the date of his registration, and giving a brief record of his qualifications and experience. There are at present no special regulations under which teachers of chemistry as such can be registered; they are required to comply with the regulations as other teachers. It may be noted, however, that Fellowship of the Institute of Chemistry (F.I.C.) has been formally recognised by the Teachers’ Registration Council as an ‘‘additional qualification,” and may be registered under Regulation 10 of the Schedule to the Order in Council of March the 6th, 1902.No-rE.-The Board have recently issued a, memorandum indicating that it is proposed to discontinue the register in its present form. GAS EXAMINERS, AND GASWORKS CHEMISTS. Under the Board of Trade (p. 55), the Corporation of the City of London (p. 50),and the London County Council (p. 51), references are made to the appointments of professional chemists as gas examiners under the Metropolitan Gas Acts, in con-nection with the gas supply to the metropolis. In the administration of the Gasworks Clauses Act, 1871, many other corporations and local authorities in Great Britain and Ireland have appointed gas examiners, usually professional chemists in practice locally, to make independent testings, from time to time, of the quality of the gas supply in their districts, whether supplied from the works of a company or from it municipal gasworks.In 1905 there were 265 local authorities owning gasworks in the United Kingdom. In about 10 per cent. of these municipal works, research and works chemists, appointed by the local authority through its gas committee, are employed. In the remaining works, the chemical and analytical work required for the control of the manufacturing operations is done by, or under the direction of, the manager of the works, who is usually primarily an engineer.As already stated, some local authorities owning gasworks have also appointed independent gas examiners to make periodical testiiigs of the quality of the gas supply.In the event of a deficiency in the quality of the gas supply, the gas examiner is required to appear at the local police court to prove the report on which the proceedings against the gas undertaking are based.

In 1842, the Board of Inland Revenue established a chemical laboratory, mainly with the object of protecting the tobacco revenue, but to which all chemical questions arising in connec- tion with the department were referred. Excise duties of vayious kind8 were, at that time, more numerous than at the present day, and the chemists of the department had to deal not only with what would now be regarded as purely Excise or Customs questions affecting tobacco, spirits, beer and other alcoholic beverages or preparations, but with many matters connected with food stuffs of various kinds.The earliest Statutes directed against the adulteration of articles of food were Excise Acts intended primarily for the protection of the Revenue, such for instance as the Act 5 Geo. I., chap. 11, the short title of which was “The Adulteration of CofYee Act, 1718,” or 2 Geo. I., chap. 30, known as “The Adulteration of Tea and Coffee Act, 1724.” No general Adulteration Act was in force until 1860, when, after it Parliamentary enquiry, the (‘Act for preventing the Adulteration of Food or Drink” came into 21 The Government Laboratories.existence. This was followed by amending Acts in 1872 and 2375, the latter after a further Parliamentary enquiry. Under the last named Act, known as " The Sale of Food and Drugs Act," it was enacted, iyzter alia, that the justices or Court before whom any complaint under the Act was made, might upon the request of either party cause any article of food or drug to be sent to the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, who should direct the chemical officers of their department, then at Somerset House, to make the analysis and give a certificate of the result. It was under this clause that the chemists of the Inland Revenue Department were required to undertake work in connection with the Adulteration Acts.By the growth of Revenue business, and by other departments of the Crown requiring chemical assistance in connection with the various duties with which they were respectively charged, the work of the laboratory has rapidly and constantly increased. The departments seeking such assistance were the Admiralty, the Board of Trade (with the Corporation of Trinity House), the Home Office, the India Office, the Local Government Board, the Post Office, the Office of Works, the War Office, and, on its establishment, the Board of Agriculture (now tho Board of Agriculture and Fisheries). In connection with the last named department, further duties were laid upon the Laboratory under the Fertilisers and Feeding StuHs Act, 1893, 57 and 58 Vict., chap. 56.In 1899, on the death of Sir Edward Frsnkland, K.C.B., F.R.S., the first President of the Institute of Chemistry, the examination of samples of water for the Local Government Board, obtained for the purpose of checking the purity of the London water supplies, was also assigned to the Government Laboratories. For many years, the Commissioners of Customs also main- tained a chemical staff to deal with alcoholic determinations of 22 The Government Laboratories. ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ imported and exported wines and spirits, with the analysis of im-ported tea, and with such other questions as arose in connection with the collection and control of Customs duties. On the retirement, in January, 1893, of Dr.James Bell, C.B., F.R.S., the former Principal of the Inland Revenue Laboratory and a Past President of the Institute of Chemistry, the Treasury decided to unite the Inland Revenue and Customs Laboratories under one Principal Chemist, and a new Laboratory wits built at Clement’s Inn Passage, Strand, London, to which the staff at Somerset House removed, the Customs Laboratory being maintained as before at the Custom House in Thames Street, London, E.C. The chemical staff at present consists of a Principal and Deputy Principal, three Superintending Chemists, 17 Analysts, divided into two classes, a, Water Analyst, and 67 temporary Assistants. Some of the last mentioned are employed solely upon simple alcoholic determinations and other duties of a similar character for which chemical training is not considered requisite.Of the above staff, one Superintending Cliemist, four Analysts, and eleven temporary Assistants are attached to the Customs branch. In consequence of the large proportion of Revenue work in connection with which knowledge of the Revenue Laim, Regulations and system is deemed either necessary ‘or useful, the Chemists of the Department are recruited from specially trained members of the Revenue Services, though under exceptional circumstances, or in times of exceptional pressure, chemists not so recruited have been temporarily employed. The system followed is to offer for competition, each year, eight studentships: six to established members of the Inland Revenue Service of the grade of Assistant of Excise of not less than six months’ standing, and two to Assistants of Customs.As the general educational qualifications have already been tested by the 23 The Government Laboratories. Civil Service Commissioners, the examinations of these candi- dates for admission to the Chemical Studentships is limited to Elementary Organic and Inorganic Chemistry, Physics, Algebra (up to Quadratic Equations), and Euclid (Books I. and 11.). The successful competitors are admitted to the Royal College of Science, London, for a two years’ course of study and training, at the end of which time they become temporary Chemical Assistants in the Government Laboratory or in the Customs Laboratory, according to the service to which they belong.From those Assistants, after usually a somewhat prolonged probation, during which they gain a varied experience in chemical work, the most capable are selected to fill the vacancies which may occur among the Analysts of the second class, and become permanent members of the Laboratory staff. After several years’ service as temporary Assistants, those not selected for the permanent staff return to their Revenue or Customs employment, a limited number being placed in charge of branch provincial laboratories or testing stations where the work is practically limited to alcoholic or original gravity determinations, the estimation of moisture in tobacco, or the assessing of the duty on sugar by the official polarimetric method.The Branch Inland Revenue Labora-tories are at Burton, Dublin, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Newhaven, and Southampton, and the Customs Testing Stations are at the principal ports.

Prior to the year 1860, legislation against adulteration dealt with only a few articles of food, and s;’as enforced mainly for the benefit of Revenue. It was an offence at common law 28 Local Government Boards.__---___~_ -__~____~ ~ to adulterate food, but no provision was made for analvsine: samples, and action was seldom taken.In 1860, the “Adulter; tion of Foods Act,” to prohibit the sale of adulterated articles of food and drink, was passed; it was extended to include drugs, by an amending Act in 1872. These Acts, however, were repealed by the “ Sale of Food and Drugs Act,” 1875, which itself has been amended by further Acts of 1879 and 1899, and supplemented by the Margarine Act, 1877. Under these Acts, any suspected article of food or drug, which may be the subject of a prosecution, is required to be analysed by a Public Analyst, who must give a certificate of his analysis, and, every quarter, furnish a report of his work under the Act to the Local hut hori t y.In a court of law, certificates issued by a Public Analyst, whether acting for the prosecuting authority or for the defendant, are accepted as evidence of the facts stated therein, without the Analyst himself being present. In any case, however, the personal attendance of the Analyst may be required by either side.Public Analysts are appointed under Section 10 of the “ Sale of Food and Drugs Act,” 1875, which is as follows :-‘(App0i”Iztmeidsand Duties of Aituly/sts, am1 pyoceedings to obtaiiz d?ZUl7JSiS.” ‘‘10. In the City of London and the liberties thereof the Commissioners of Sewers of the City of London and the liberties thereof, and in all other parts of the metropolis the vestries and district boards acting in execution of the Act for the better local management of the metropolis, the court of quarter sessions of every county, and the town council of every borough having a separate court of quarter sessions.or having under any general or local Act of Parliament or otherwise a separate police establishment, may, as soon as convenient after the passing of this Act, where no appoint- ment has been hitherto made, arid in all cases as and when vacancies in the office occur, or when required so to do by the Local Government Board, shall, for their respective city, districts, counties, or boroughs, appoint one or more persons possessing competent knowledge, skill, and experience, as analysts of all articles of food and drugs sold within the said city, metropolitan districts, counties, or boroughs, and shall pay to such analysts such remuneration as shall be mutually agreed upon, and may remove him or them as they shall deem proper; but such appointments and removals shall at all times be subject to the approval of the Local Government Board, who may require satisfactory proof of competency to be supplied to them, and may give their approval absolutely or with modifications as to the period of the appointment and removal, or otherwise : Provided that no person shall hereafter be appointed an analyst for any place under this section who shall be engaged directly or indirectly 29 Local Government Boards.________-__ .~ in any trade or business connected with the sale of food or drugsin such place. In Scotland the like powers shall be conferred and the like duties shall be imposed upon the commissioners of supply at their ordinary meetings for counties, and the commissioners or boards of police, or where there are no such commissioners or boards, upon the town councils for boroughs within their several jurisdictions ; provided that one of Her Majesty’s Principal Secretaries of State in Scotland shall be substitukd for the Local Government Board of England. In Ireland the like powers and duties shall be conferred and imposed respec- tively upon the grand jury of every county and town council of every borough; provided that the Local Government Board of Ireland shall be substituted for the Local Government Board of England.” Since 1875, many changes have taken place in the constitu- tution of Local Authorities, largely owing to the creation of County and Borough Councils.The section quoted above was merely permissive, and many Local Authorities failed to appoint Analysts, or took very few samples. To remedy this, the following clause was inserted in the Act of 1899 (which came into operation on the 1st of January, 1900), making the appointment of a Public Analyst compulsory on all competent Local Authorities :-“It shall be the duty of every Local Authority entrusted with the execution of the laws relating to the sale of food and drugs to appoint a Public Analyst, and put in force from time to time, as occasion may arise, the powers with which they are invested, so as to provide proper securities for the sale of food and drugs in a pure and genuine condition, and in particular to direct their officers to take samples for analysis.” The Local Government Board, and the Board of Agriculture (when the interests of agriculture are involved), have the power to direct the taking of samples of any article of food for analysis, and in the event of the Local Authority failing to utilise or insufficiently utilising the services of a Public Analyst, the Act of 1899 gives to these two Government Departments power to enforce its provisions at the expense of such Authority, and to purchase samples and submit them to the Public Analyst.In the following clause, the Local Government Board is also empowered to define the qualifications which must be possessed by caiididates for appointment as Public Analyst :-“ Any Public Analyst appointed under the Sale of Food and Drugs Acts shall furnish such proof of competency as may from time to time be required by regulation framed by the Local Government Board.” In accordance with the above section, the Local Governinent Boards have framed regulations under which the qualifications of the Institute of Chemistry are cited :-Extract froiiz. the Regidation as to Coiiq~eteitcy of Public Am-dysts,tssued by thc Local Goveriwent Bonrd for hhglaizd and Wcilcs, on the 8tlL of XurclL, 1900;-“ As regards the reference in the Order to a person or body of personswhom the Board inay froin time to time recognise as competent to confer the requisite qualification or to test the skill or laow-ledge of which proof is required by the Order, the Board may state that it would accord with their existing practice to accept as sufficient documentary evidence of the requisite qualificationunder the Acts the Diploma, of Fellowship or Associateship of the Institute of Chemistry of Great Britain and Ireland, together with the Certificate granted by the Institute after an examiiiation conducted by thein on lilies approved by tho Board, in Thera- peutics, Pharmacology, and 1Iicroscopy.” Extract front the Regulation as to Competencpof Public A?zalysts,issued by the Local Gorer?z.incnt Baa&, Edinbzwqh, on the 1‘7th of April, 1900:-“ As regards the reference in the Order to a person or body of persons whom the Board inay froin time to time recognise as competentto confer the requihite qualification or to test the skill or know-ledge of which proof is required by the Order, the Board are prepared to accept as sufficient docuinenhry evidence of the requisite qualificatioii under the Acts the Diploma of Fellowship or Asiociatesliip of the Inhtitute of Chemistry of Great Britain and Ireland, together with the Certificate granted by the Institute after an examiliation, conducted bv thein on lilies a,pproved by the Board, in Therapeutics, I’lzarniacology, and Xicroscopy.” 1‘hc Local G(ore1.?1911e?~ti3ourd for Irelaizd hare oficially iiiforlited th Coiincil of the Ixstztzite that tlLeg arc “ Prepared to accept as sufficient documentary evidence of the requihite qudificatioli for appointmeiit ns Public Analyst under the Sale of Food and Drugs ACG, 1399, tlie Diploriis of F.I.C.or A.1 C., together with the Certificate graiited by the Institute of Chemistr? of Great Britain and Ireland after an examimtion in Thera- peutics, Pharmacology aiid Microscopy.” The dismissal of a Public Analyst cannot take effect without the consent of the Local Government Boards. It may be noted that the Boards have invariably declined to sanction dismissal except in cases where iiicoivpeteiicy has been provee or where some breach of the agreement between the analyst and the appointing authority has arisen. 31 Local Government Board.-England and Wales. ___ -.

Alkali, ck., Works Regulations Acts, 1881 mad 1892 (26 Le. 27 Victoria,chap. 120, and 31 Le. 32 Victoria, chap. 36). In 1863, an Act was passed “for the more effectual condensa- tion of muriatic acid gas evolved in Alkali Works.” This Act provided for the registration and inspection of alkali works, and required that these works should be carried on in such a manner as to secure the condensation of not less than 95 per cent.of the muriatic gas evolved therein. Provision was made for the appointment of Inspectors, and regulations were enacted for the recovery of penalties for offences under the Act. The Act was to continue in force only until the 1st of July, 1868, but in June of that year it was made “ perpetual.” In 1874, a further Alkali Act was passed, and, in 1881, the Alkali, &c., Works Regulation Act was passed to consolidate the Acts of 1863 and 1874, and to make further provision for regulating alkali, and certain ot’her works, in which noxious or offensive gases are evolved. This Act, which repealed the previous Acts, came into operation on the 1st day of January, 1882.Under its provisions, the owner of every alkali works is required to use the best practicable means for preventing the discharge of noxious nnd offensive gases evolved in such works, and for dis- posing of alkali waste without nuisance arising therefrom. It imposed similar restrictions on the owners of sulphuric acid works and other specified works. Fines are incurred for offences under this Act. The works are required to be registered, and the owner to apply for a certificate of registration annually on payment of certain stamp duties. In 1892, a further Act was passed under the provisions of which other works were scheduled for the purposes of the 1881 Act, but certain works in Part I. of the Schedule, wherein no sulphuretted hydrogen is evolved, are not deemed to be included in the Schedule. Part I.of the Schedule includes works dealing with the recovery of sulphur from alkali waste, the manufacture of barium and strontium compounds from sulphides of barium and strontium, the manufacture of antimony sulphide, and the manufacture of bisulphide of carbon.Part 11. includes Venetian red works, lead deposit works, arsenic works, nitrate and chlorate of iron works, muriatic acid works, fibre separation works, tar works and zinc works. 49 Local Government Board.-England and Wales. The appointment of Inspectors for the administration of the Acts is under the control of the Local Government Board. The Board is required to appoint a Chief Inspector, and is empowered to regulate the cases and manner in which the Inspectors are to execute and perform their powers and duties under the Act, and may remove such Inspectors.An Inspector must not be employed in any other work except by or with the sanction of the appointing authority, and must not act or practise as a land agent or be interested directly or indirectly in any works to which the Act applies, or in any patent for any process or apparatus connected with such works or with the condensation of acid gases or with the treatment of waste alkali or with other matters dealt with in the Act. The Chief Inspector is required to report annually to the Board on the work under the Act, and the report is laid before both Houses of Parliament.An Slkali, &c., Works Bill, introduced by the President of the Local Government Board, for the consolidation and amendment of the Acts of 1881and 1892, is now before Parliament.

Under the Local Government Board (p. 49), reference is made to the Metropolis Water Act, 1902, and to the Metro- politan Water Board for the management of the water supply within London. Other Acts of Parliament dealing with water supply are the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1863, the Public Health Act, 1875, the Public Health (Water) Act, 1878, and the Local Government Act, 1894.Under these Acts, local authori- ties are empowered, subject to certain restrictions, to provide a supply of water for their districts, and it is their duty to ensure that dwelling houses have a proper supply. They are also required to take steps for the periodical inspection of the water supply within their respective districts, and they are concerned with the closing of public or private wells reported to be Sewage. Rivers Boards, &c.polluted. In connection with the administration of these Acts, therefore, consulting and analytical chemists are frequently retained. ROYAL COMMISSION ON SEWAGE DISPOSAL. (Royal Commissions House, Old Palace Yard, London, S.W.) The Royal Commission on Sewage Disposal was appointed on May 7th, 1898, to inquire and report on the following matters:-1. (i.) What method or methods of treating and dis- posing of sewage (including any liquid from any factory, or manufacturing process) may properly be adopted, consistently with due regard for the requirements of the existing law, for the protection of the public health, and for the economical and efficient discharge of the duties of local authorities; and (ii.) If more than one method may be so adopted, by what rules, in relation to the nature or volume of sewage, or the population to be served, or other varying circumstances or requirements, should the particular method of treatment and disposal to be adopted be determined; and (2.) To make any recommenda- tions which may be deemed desirable with reference to the treatment and disposal of sewage.The Commission was empowered to examine witnesses and to visit and inspect such places as might be deemed expedient for the more eifectual carrying out of the above purposes. In connection with the systematic investigation which the Commis- sion resolved to undertake, a number of officers, including chemists, were appointed. Appointed by the Royal Commission on Sewage Disposal :-Chemists.-George McGowan, Ph.D.(Leipzig), F.I.C. ;Colin C. Frye.Assista7zt Chemists.-Eric H. Richards, B.Sc.

Under the Local Government Act, 1888, a number of Joint Committees and Rivers Boards were constituted, and these authorities have done much useful work in enforcing the treatment of sewage, polluting liquids, and trade refuse. 61 Rivers Boards. Under the Rivers Pollution Prevention Act it is an offence to discharge any noxious matter into a stream, river, watercourse, canal, or lake, and any portion of the sea or of a tidal river, which may be declared by the Local Government Board to be a stream for the purposes of the Act.LEE CONSERVANCY(see p. 27).

CHEMICAL EXAMINERS’DEPARTXENT. Chemical Examiners to the Government of India are selected from the officers of the Indian Medical Service.The following Resolution has been forwarded by the Government to the Local Governments and Administrations, the Finance and Military Departments, and the Director- General of the Indian Medical Service :-‘‘ With the view of encouraging officers of the Indian Medical Service to qualify in chemistry, the Government of India have decided that in selecting a probationer for the Chemical Examiner’s Department preference shall catelis paribus be given to an officer who has passed the intermediate or final examination of the Institute of Chemistry of Great Britain and Ireland or any equivalent examination; and that for appointment as chemical examiner preference shall cateris paribus be given to a proba-tioner who is in possession of the diploma of Fellow or Associate of the Institute of Chemistry or any equivalent degree or diploma.” Qualified officers are attached for a year or more as probationers to a Chemical Examiner’s Department (usually at Calcutta, Bombay or Madras), where they are trained and examined as to their practicalefficiency by the Chemical Examiner.Each Chemical Examiner has a staff of native assistants, usually medical graduates or licentiates of Indian Universities who have passed through probationary courses of training in a Chemical Examiner’s Department. The analyses undertaken by the 94 Chemical Examiners are of very varied character, and include :--Medico- legal investigations, in suspected cases of poisoning of men or cattle; water analyses for the Engineering and Sanitary Departments ; commis-sariat analyses of supplies to troops : Customs analyses, to be tested for purity and percentage of adulteration under the Merchandise Marks Act, including analyses of oils, fats, waxes, paints, varnishes, drugs and per- fumes; examination of medicines from the Medical Store Department, for the estimation of alkaloids, and for general purity and strength ;agriculturalanalyses (soils, lime, cement, etc.), for various Government Departments ; general food analyses for municipalities, under the Food and Drugs Act.INDIAN DEPARTMENT.EDUCATIONAL Professors and Teachers of Chemistry in Government Universities and Colleges are appointed, for service in the Education Department, by the Secretary of State ; those in State-aided or private colleges are usually appoinied by the governing bodies of the institutions.Information as to teaching appointments is obtainable from the Directors of Public Instruc- tion of the Presidencies, Provinces and Administrations. In the following list, the appointments directly under the Government are mentioned first, and the appointments of Chemical Examiners and Professors and Teachers of Chemistry are scheduled under the various provinces.
