Abstract
MR. W. ROBERTSON'S letter in NATURE of January 5 is very timely. May I invite him and those his letter has interested or impressed to put into practice, in Middlesbrough or any other town, the “most practical suggestion of immediate value” he describes, with one important addition. Some of us have recently been striving to get his suggestion, thus widened and clinched, made operative in other British centres of population on behalf of the British Science Guild, the objective of which comprehends the exact duty Mr. Robertson acclaims and the methods of which in a new campaign have been dictated by a lively sense of provincial and metropolitan needs in the harnessing of science to important public tasks.
