Millions of yor.rs lost in the na tion's school rooms during a single generation by failure to edopt the metric system of weights and measures was the estimate pre- seated to the American Chemical society's meeting hero today by Professor Eugene C. Hlnglium ol Lafayette college, Kaston, Pa. Professor Bingham also declar ed that discarding of tho present English system in favor of the metric tables would simplify buy ing. The total gain, he said would mean a revolutionary ad vance In national economy through the mere use of the decimal point. In a resolution ndopted today by the society's council, manufac turers of . photographic plates, films and chemicals wero request ed "to publish approved metric formulas in add'-t-uu to the Eng lish formulas." rime-saving can be accomplish ed in the schools, it was pointed out, because a vast number of schools hours Is devoted to master ing the English system, while, the metric system can bo learned with relatively little effort. One benefit to the school pupils would be the virtual elimination of common fractions from arith metic.

"Wheth or the law. when properly con aimed, prohibits In our schools the theory of evolution, remains to he seen. It certainly prohibits Ita teaching as a fact.
