PRELIMINARY DIRECTIONS. 



I. DIRECTIONS FOR PREPARING A LABORATORY NOTEBOOK 



IN ZOOLOGY. 



A. Materials. Each student should provide: 



1. Glencoe covers fastened with a shoe string, to be used for filing 

 finished, corrected notes and drawings. 



2. One-half pound note paper, ruled on both sides, to fit Glencoe 

 covers. 



3. A dozen sheets Buckeye Linen Ledger drawing paper to fit Glencoe 

 covers. 



4. Two sheets thin cardboard (either manilla or "mounting board"), 

 to fit Glencoe covers. These are to be used as inside covers. 



5. Four manilla envelopes, to be used for storing the blank paper and 

 uncorrected work. The student's name and seat number should be 

 placed in the upper right-hand corner; the class and hour in the upper 

 left-hand corner. The particular use of the envelope should be recorded 

 in its center, thus: "Blank Note Paper"; "Blank Drawing Paper '", 

 "Hand-in Envelope" (two of these can be used). 



Items i, 2, 3, 4 and 5 may be obtained from the dealers by asking 

 for a " Zoology Note Book." The Glencoe covers are not absolutely 

 necessary and may be omitted. 



6. A 4H Kohinoor drawing pencil. A sH or a 6H Kohinoor drawing 

 pencil in addition is desirable, but is not absolutely necessary. 



7. Lead eraser with beveled edge. 



8. Pen, ink and blotter. 



All the above should be kept in the laboratory and not be 

 taken away for use elsewhere, except by special permission. 



B. Note Writing. i. The laboratory notebook is to be 

 used only for laboratory work; lecture notes and informa- 

 tion obtained by reading should not be included. This note- 

 book is intended to represent so far as possible the results 

 of a first hand study of nature and should record only direct
