A number of French radiologists, there-fore, have thought the moment well chosenfor the establishment of a laboratorv for re- ance of the laboratory, and assumes the sci-entific direction of it. Dr. M. A. Dauvillier, a young physicianof great future, already known by his inter-esting work with the .r-rays, is attached tothe laboratory. Some of the readers of thisletter will perhaps remember having seenhim during the war in the .r-ray departmentof the Descartes hospital at Tours, where wefirst realized the value of an intimate relationbetween a physical laboratory and a medico-.

The Due de Broglie, well known for hisspectroscopic studies of the .t-rays. and whohas at present for his personal use a well-equipped laboratory, has generously ofifered,to shelter the new organization, an entirebuilding completely furnished and eciuippedwith the most excellent and modern appa-ratus. Except for the very modest assist-ance of the writer, the Due de Broglie over-sees entirely the functioning: and mainten- surgical .r-ray service. For, modest as it was,tha
