YOU CAN ADVANCE SCIENCE EDUCATION Today, more than ever before in its 138-year history, there is vital need for The Franklin Institute effectively to promote education in science and technology. It is imperative that we meet this challenge by providing adequate educational opportunities in these fields. This requires vision, objective planning, and money. We have more than enough of the first two requisites, but far too little of the third. Our programs are aimed at professional scientists and industry, as well as the lay public and young people seeking inspiration and guidance in choosing a career. The Institute's educational programs are impressive. They begin with students in the early grades of our elementary schools and continue throughout an individual's professional or industrial life. With more funds at our disposal, the scope and vigor of these activities could be greatly increased and increasingly effective. The Franklin Institute is not richly endowed. It is a non-profit organization, depending for encouragement and support on an understanding public. Capable and conservative management assures wise administration of all funds. Your gift or bequest, large or small, will be deeply appreciated and will be used effectively to broaden the Institute's educational usefulness. There is a warm satisfaction in giving financial support to an organization that has pioneered in, and is dedicated to, the advancement of science and technology. When property is transferred, title should be in the name of The Franklin Institute of the State of Pennsylvania for the Promotion of the Mechanic Arts. The Secretary of The Franklin Institute will gladly furnish you with additional information. Write to him at The Franklin Institute, Benjamin Franklin Parkway at Twentieth Street, Philadelphia 3, Pennsylvania. If you wish to give securities: (1) Send the stock certificates to The Franklin Institute, Philadelphia 3, Pennsylvania, and leave the assignment space blank. (2) Execute a stock power and mail this to the Institute separately, leaving the assignment space blank. (The Institute, upon request, will gladly furnish blank stock power forms.)
