Abstract
WORKERS in many branches of science and education will deeply sympathise with Prof. W. A. Bone, professor of chemical technology in the Imperial College of Science and Technology, on the death of his wife on July 26. Before her marriage to Prof. Bone in 1916, Mrs. Bone, who was then Miss Liddiard, was headmistress of the St. Albans High School for Girls, and had previously been a member of the teaching staff of the Ladies' College, Cheltenham. She was a graduate in arts of the University of London, and possessed exceptional capacity for teaching as well as for organisation. While she was head of the St. Albans High School, the domestic economy school was inaugurated there. Mrs. Bone took an active interest in science progress in general, and her husband's researches in particular, and her death will be regretted by a large circle of pupils and friends who came under her strong and delightful influence.
