New York City Section of American Nature-Study Society 



A joint meeting of this Section and of the School-Garden 

 Association of New York will be held at Public School No. 165 on 

 Friday, December fourth at 8 p. m. The meeting will be devoted 

 to papers on and discussion of the relation of local school-gardens 

 to nature-study in the New York City schools. This is the 

 second of a series of meetings planned to make a survey of 

 existing conditions and practice of nature-study teaching in the 

 public schools of Greater New York. 



Communications regarding the New York City Section should 

 be addressed to Mrs. Alice R. Northrop, chairman, 500 War- 

 burton Ave., Yonkers, N. Y. 



American Association for the Advancement of Science 



Since the above was set in type, the preliminary announcement 

 of this society has been mailed to members. It should be in the 

 hands of all members of the American Nature-Study Society 

 who think of going to Baltimore. Write direct to Dr. L. O. 

 Howard, Washington, D. C. 



During the year 1908, members of various scientific societies 

 are being enrolled in the A. A. A. S. without payment of 

 the usual admission fee of $5.00. It seems probable that 

 members of the A. N. S. S. might be included in this arrange- 

 ment, and the secretary will be glad to present any application 

 to the officers of the A. A. A. S. The fee in that society is 

 $3.00 per year, which includes the weekly journal Science.
