Mr White observed that in view of that demonstration he had brought 

 with him some photographs, which he did not put forward as specimens of 

 photography, but as a method of illustrating objects which were shown 

 under the microscope, so as to be easily appreciated by observers. It was a 

 trying experience with many to stand by their microscope and explain the 

 different parts of the object to be observed. He had used these photographs 

 with a few letters and figures as references, and was thus relieved of further 

 trouble in explaining the object. He wished to show how members could do 

 this for themselves, by using dry plates, during the dark winter evenings. 



By permission of the President, Mr. A. W. Stokes invited the members to 

 assist at the Inaugural Soiree to be given by the Association of Medical 

 Students at the Holborn Town Hall at the end of January.
