The Club was called to order by the President, Mr. Griggs. 

 The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. 



Prof. Hine gave a brief talk on "The Mammals of Ohio". 

 He dwelt in particular on those species which have been reported 

 as extinct; but which still persist in isolated localities, or wander 

 in from time to time. 



Prof. Kellerman showed a large number of fine views of 

 Guatemala. 



Owing to the absence of all the members of the nominating 

 committee, a motion was made and carried to suspend the rules
