Sixty years of the Society for Applied Bacteriology: a story of growth, enterprise and consolidation

The origins and early years of the Society are outlined. The subsequent boom in membership numbers, the development of the programme and the range and volume of the Society's publications are described. The account indicates that the Society has stabilized in size over the last decade but its enthusiasm to honour its constitution has been sustained and its activities have widened. Special interest groups have been created and the scope of meetings has continued to expand. Co‐operation with other bodies, at national and international level, for the organization of colloquia, symposia and conferences, has increased. Young scientists have been encouraged and rewarded. Programmes to foster an awareness of the nature and scope of applied microbiology in schoolchildren have been given financial and practical support. The loyal service of individuals and groups to the administration and organization of the Society is acknowledged.

Staff Changes

Reflections on international liability for injurious consequences arising out of acts not prohibited by international law

News of the death in Wellington on 25 September 1984 of Robert Quentin Quentin-Baxter shocked his many friends attending the 39th session of the General Assembly of the United Nations. The traditional moment of silence was observed by the Sixth Committee, and many tributes followed, for Quentin's life had been one of dedicated and loyal service to his country and to the community of nations.

An Ohio Yankee at Dom Pedro's Court: Notes on Brazilian Life in the 1850's by an American Diplomat, Robert C. Schenck

In 1850, after four terms in the United States Congress as a Whig from the Dayton, Ohio district, Robert Cumming Schenck decided not to run for reelection. Despondent over the recent death of his wife, Schenck yearned for a restful stay in a warmer clime. Consequently, he applied for a diplomatic post, the customary reward for loyal party service. President Millard Fillmore, a fellow Whig, obliged Schenck with an appointment as Minister Plenipotentiary and Envoy Extraordinary to Brazil. A railroad promoter, land speculator and politician, Schenck had few formal qualifications for diplomatic service other than the confidence of Secretary of State Daniel Webster and a fluent command of the French language. These were, however, more substantial assets than most nineteenth century American diplomats could boast, and to them Schenck added a brisk, businesslike manner, immense energy and a certain gruff charm.

カルデールの「ゾロアスターのカアバ」刻文について

Since its finding in AD 1939, Karder's Inscription of the Ka'be-ye Zardost has been subjected to linguistic studies by many scholars, and ever since remarkable progress has been attained. Still, however, some difficulties remain to be solved. My paper, written for the purpose of some contributions in this field, is composed of three parts: 1. The text (in transcription) with its Japanese translation; 2. Syntactic and semantical studies; and 3. Notes. That the translation by me is somewhat different from those thus far published, may be evident from the following passages:1.1: ‘And I will proclaim (HWYTNn=*niwehan), (I) Karder the mowbed, of loyal service and of loyal will toward the gods and Shabuhr, King of Kings. And made me Shabuhr, King of Kings, for that service which I had rendered to the gods and Shabuhr, King of Kings, —may you (or man) tell (HWYTNt=*niwehed) (to the people)! —absolute and authoritative within the Magian community in (matters of) the rites of the gods at court and province after province, place after place in the whole realm.’ (, 'P-m…ZK-m corresponds to Pahlavi, 'P-m…'-m [=a-m]. The like ZK-m is attested in 11. 2, 8, 13. That the ZK-m was most probably pronounced a-m, not an-am, can be made certain from ZK-n (SKZ, MP., 1. 21) that can be regarded as representing a-n, the n of ZK-n being added to prevent the only ZK from its being interpreted as an ‘he; that’. And once the writing ZK-n thus established for a-n, it is quite natural that the ZK- should be taken for a-; hence in my opinion ZK-m stands for a-m.)Present indicative passive 3rd person singular: YTYBWNd=nisayd ‘it is founded’ (11. 2, 10, 14), HTYMWNd=awisid ‘it is sealed’ (11. 2, 7), , 'BYDWNd=kirid ‘it is made’ (1. 8, to be identified with kylyty, kylyt, klyty).1. 13: ahlomog…|ke…|ne|pad wizar pahrist ‘the heretic who is not found on the nomination-list’, where wizar ‘separation’> ‘list on which only the names of approved mow are inscribed, those of heretic being expunged’.For further details, see my paper ‘Some Remarks on Karder's Inscription of the Ka'be-ye Zardost’ to be published in Orient, Vol. XVII, 1981.

Vale

Patient and unobtrusive service, faithfully rendered year by year, often by reason of its very familiarity receives less than its merited meed of recognition, but we are happy here to pay all honour to one of the editors of Greece & Rome, who, after twenty-five years' loyal service to this journal, must now on medical advice relinquish his post. A glance at the list of books reviewed, for example, in one year in vol. xvii, numbering 102 in all, is eloquent testimony to the impressive role so long sustained by the man to whom we gratefully dedicate this issue, Mr. E. R. A. Sewter. His many brief reviews, while making their point, have ever given illumination to senior scholars, schoolmasters, and others, who sought to know more of some classical publication than its title might well convey. A measure of Mr. Sewter's quality is to be seen in the gap he leaves behind him. Scarce twelve men nowadays could sustain the weight this rugged Ajax so lightly wielded. Mr. Sewter, as he withdraws into retirement, takes with him the gratitude, not only of the Press and Editorial Board, but also of the vast number of his readers who have benefited from his services. Once more we are given occasion to reflect upon that grand Shakespearian phrase—‘The constant service of the antique world’.

IV. The Bourbon Army, 1815–1830

On 23 March 1815 Louis XVIII disbanded die French army. In June Napoleon lost Waterloo and abdicated, and the Bourbons returned to Paris to complete the destruction of the army. It had proved itself loyal only to Napoleon and over half of the 70,000 men of Davout's command preferred desertion to the white cockade. The country at large was hostile and in the royalist south returning officers were arrested and several were killed. In August the King published an ordinance ‘concerning the organization of a new army’. The army was ‘to be formed according to the principles which constitute a truly national army to form a military force in harmony with the liberal nature of our charter… avoiding the separation of die army from the interests of die country‘. It was not an easy task. Financial circumstances placed limitations on size, die Charter forbade conscription, the allies wanted reprisals and die royalists claimed rewards for their loyal service.

Address of the President, Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins, at the anniversary meeting, November 30, 1934

Death has this year exacted a toll on our Fellowship which is heavier than usual. We have lost one distinguished Foreign Member and twenty-two Fellows. In the list are the names of two who did fine service for the Society on its Council and in office. Sir Arthur Schuster was a Secretary for seven years and Foreign Secretary for four. Sir William Hardy was Secretary during the difficult War years and after, serving from 1915-25. Each of these while in office gave loyal service to the internal affairs of the Society and by their enterprise made for it national and international contacts from which it gained in prestige and influence. Arthur Schuster, while a most able and successful investigator, displayed great capacity and foresight in the conduct of affairs. He foresaw the future which was so abundantly to justify the foundation of Manchester University as an independent institution, and he took a leading part in the movement which resulted in that foundation.

Dr. Charles F. Sonntag

BY the sudden death of Dr. Sonntag on October 10—only two days before the thirty-eighth anniversary of his birth—the Zoological Society of London has lost a Prosector who by temperament and enthusiasm for patient anatomical investigation had ideal qualifications for this office. At University College, where since 1922 he had acted as a part-time demonstrator of anatomy, Sonntag endeared himself to students and colleagues by loyal service and geniality, and to a wider circle by the lucidity and interest of his public lectures on the evolution of man.

XIX.—The Sources of Chaucer's Parlement of Foules

Theories offering interpretations of Chaucer's Parlement of Foules based upon the orthodox belief that the central incident of the poem is in some way connected with a royal marriage have at least refused to do loyal service at one prominent point. No theory of historical allegory has yet explained in a wholly satisfactory manner the outstanding fact that the Parlement of Foules is artistically a well rounded poem, and yet contains an unfinished story. Why does not the formel eagle choose her mate after our interest has been aroused in the pleadings of her lovers?
