[Glorification of forgotten famous chemists: the medals of the Stanislas Limousin Committee].
A Committee created in 1938 by Pr Goris decided to honour Stanislas Limousin--a dispensing chemist who invented, among other things, medicinal Cachets and pharmaceutical vials--by placing a medallion bearing his effigy upon the house where he was born in Ardentes. Ten years later, this Committee considered that quite a few other dispensing chemists deserved the same honour and selected four of them: Eugène Choay, Charles Tanret, Emile Boudier and Claude Nativelle: the aim of the author was find out whether those medallions had really been affixed on the respective birth places of these pharmacists and if they were still in place. It is the case for the first two of them. Concerning Boudier, his medallion was affixed on his pharmacy in Montmorency and is still there. As for Nativelle, his medallion, if ever affixed, was laid down and recently found again an attic of the faculty of pharmacy.
