PROCEEDINGS. 



INTRODUCTION. 



Early in January, 1911, the Recording Secretary in letters to the President 

 and the Chairman of the Library Committee, urged the desirability of 

 a fitting observance of the one hundredth anniversary of the foundation of 

 the Academy. He prepared an outline program which, having been elaborated 

 by a preliminary committee consisting of Henry G. Bryant, LL.B., George 

 Vaux, Jr., Henry Skinner, M.D., Sc.D., Thomas H. Fenton, M.D., and the 

 Secretary, was approved by the Council, the proposed celebration was authorized, 

 and the President was directed to appoint a Committee of Arrangements of 

 which he should be the Chairman. 



The President appointed a general committee, which, appropriately divided 

 into sub-committees, was charged with the details of management as follows:
