AMERICAN NATURE-STUDY SOCIETY 



Announcement of Annual Meeting 



The annual meeting of the American Nature-Study Society will 

 be held in Baltimore on December 29th and 30th. There will be 

 two sessions (at 9 or 9.30 a. m., Tuesday and Wednesday, 

 December 29th and 30th) and a business meeting at 5 o'clock on 

 the 29th. The program of the American Association for the 

 Advancement of Science will be distributed at Baltimore and 

 should be consulted for final announcements regarding exact 

 hours and places of the meetings of the A. N. S. S. The meetings 

 will probably be held at the Eastern Female High School. 



Members of the A. N. S. S. will be able to take advantage of 

 whatever reduced rates are granted to the American Association 

 for the Advancement of Science. It is probable that the rate 

 will be about cne and three-fifths fares for the round trip on the 

 certificate plan. Consult local ticket agents. 



It has been decided by the Council that one session will be 

 devoted to a discussion of "The Relation of Nature-Study and 

 Agriculture in Elementary Rural Schools," and one session to 

 "The Relation of Nature-Study and High School Science." 

 A number of well known educators will open these discussions 

 with short papers, and there will be much time for general dis- 

 cussion. These are timely topics, and they ought to result in 

 meetings as interesting and profitable as was the meeting at 

 Chicago last January and the one at Cleveland last July. 



The secretary of the A. N. S. S. calls attention to the fact that, 

 in order to mail The Nature-Study Review for 1909 to mem- 

 bers, it is necessary that annual dues be paid not later than 

 January. Payment before January will save the Society con-
