Abstract
“WE cannot refrain from expressing some regret that the encouragement of scientific research should be one of the things which they do better in France than among ourselves.” With these words, trenchant enough if heeded by those in authority on whose ears they may fall, the Times concludes a leader on the inauguration of the Pasteur Institute by the President of the French Republic. Such a ceremony naturally suggests two distinct points for consideration: (1) the object of the institution thus inaugurated; (2) the interest attaching to the ceremony.
