The storeroom attendants in the Chemical Laboratories are notorious for their inefficiency and discourtesy. It is bad enough to have to deal with these unpleasant people, but the absence of the smile may be forgiven if the required materials are promptly available. Too often they are not.

Their comparatively minor annoyance is but another indication of the reactionary attitude which holds sway in the Department and prevents it from achieving the preeminence which other Harvard faculties maintain.
