THE 



NATURE-STUDY REVIEW 



DEVOTED TO ALL PHASES OF NATURE-STUDY IN SCHOOLS 



Vol. 5 MARCH, 1909 No. • 



FIRST DIRECTORY OF MEMBERS OF THE AMERICAN 

 NATURE -STUDY SOCIETY 



The following list gives the names and addresses and, as far as 

 known to the secretary, the official positions of members of the 

 American Nature-Study Society who were enrolled before 

 January 20th, 1909. The unavoidable delay in issuing this 

 directory made it desirable to make it as complete as possible by 

 adding about twenty names received early in January of this 

 year. 



The secretary of the Society has found some difficulty in at- 

 tempting to distinguish between members of the A. N.-S. S. and 

 subscribers to the N.\ture-Study Review. The confusion has 

 arisen from the fact that a year's subscription to the Review 

 and the annual members dues, including the Review free, are 

 exactly the same. Correspondence shows that there is the wide- 

 spread understanding that subscription to the Review at the 

 full rate automatically results in membership in the A. N.-S. S. 

 Considering the existing confusion, it has seemed to the secretary 

 best to include in the following list the names of all persons who 

 paid to the Society, either direct to the secretary or through 

 agencies (which are now required to charge the full subscription 

 price) the amount of the annual membership fee, $1.00. The 

 application of this rule has added to the list probably some forty 

 or fiftv names of persons who are certainly interested in the work 

 and journal of the Society, but who do not happen to have filed 

 formal applications for membership. In case any names should 

 not be included as members, notice to the secretary will make 

 sure of their omission from the next list of members. 



This list does not contain names placed on the subscription list 

 of the Review at reduced rates, chiefly through clubs with other
