the president of the University Women's Union, Dr. Zahia Kaddoura, who gave a sketch of his life, filled with long striving in the two fields of journalism and science, which qualifies him more than anyone else to plunge into this difficult subject.

Thereupon Mr. Fuad Sarruf rose and gave an ample study of the development of the scientific renaissance from its first beginnings down to our present age, citing decisive events wherever modern science stood as the starting point of a tremendous energy.

Then, in his intellectual wanderings, he turned to the "House of Wisdom" in Baghdad during the third Abbasid age, showing its far-reaching effect upon the scientific renaissance, and that the Arabs should look back with pride and inspiration to that golden age — perhaps they may yet return to it...

Michel Chiha in the History of Lebanon

As a contribution to reviving the memory of Michel Chiha and to setting forth his message and his ideals, the Cénacle Libanais has arranged, for Monday, June 6, 1955, a gathering at which a lecture will be delivered on the subject:

"Michel Chiha in the History of Lebanon"

The Cénacle is also preparing, in cooperation with an elite of men of thought, studies on the great departed in the various fields in which his intellectual and national activity was distinguished; these will appear in print during the week of the lecture.

It requests all those who can be of service on the subject to be so kind as to communicate with its administration, by letter to Post Office Box 1145, or by telephone at number 25799.

might unite their efforts on behalf of the Lebanese countryside; and since the aim of the first is to serve the village on the cultural side, and that of the second on the economic and social (women's) side, each completes the work of the other.

The idea met with support from both sides, and the study of the possibility of joint service has been begun.

Vicks VapoRub

The nurse says:

His cold goes away

with this modern method!

It penetrates through the skin to relieve the pain in the chest

It fights the cold in two ways

It reaches inside the air passages to make breathing easier

When your child catches cold, you can rid him of his pains by using Vicks VapoRub: it is enough to rub the chest, neck, and back with this gentle salve at bedtime. Nurses and doctors recommend the use of Vicks VapoRub in many countries, because it fights colds in these two special ways:

(1) When you rub in Vicks VapoRub, its powerful medicinal ingredients begin their work through the skin, soothing the pain in the child's chest, while the others help to loosen the phlegm and ease the severity of the congestion.

(2) At the same time, Vicks VapoRub gives off a strong, pleasant scent which your child inhales, and which enters directly into the air passages during sleep; this scent is a very powerful medicine for colds — it clears the stuffed nose, calms the congested throat, and eases the severity of the cough.

And Vicks VapoRub goes on fighting the child's cold in these two ways all night long; by the next morning the severity of the cold will have passed..

Try it! Vicks VapoRub is beneficial in all the colds that befall every member of the family

One of the best medicines for colds

A rub with it is enough!
