 " of the Amer. Assoc, for the Advancement of Science, held at Portland, 

 " hereby respectfully petition the American Entomological Society of 

 " Philadelphia, and the Entomological Society of Canada, to appoint 

 " yearly meetings to be held at the same times and places with the annual 

 " meetings of the American Association. The undersigned are moved to 

 " this memorial from the considerations, that such prospective action of 

 " the Societies would ensure the annual assemblage of a large number of 

 " Entomologists resident over a wide extent of territory, and also prac- 

 " tically enlarge the sphere and increase the usefulness of these Societies." 



" Resolved — That the American Association for the Advancement of 

 " Science hereby endorses the accompanying memorial, and invites the 

 " Entomological Societies to call yearly meetings of their members in 

 " accordance with the request therein contained." 



After some discussion Mr. Saunders moved, seconded by Mr. E. B. 

 Reed — " That the Entomological Society of Ontario has heard with much 

 " pleasure the above resolutions of the American Association for the 

 " Advancement of Science, and will gladly do everything in its power to 

 " carry out the proposed arrangements and facilitate the annual meeting 

 " of American Entomologists.'' 



" That we hereby tender our hearty thanks to the American Association 

 " for their cordial invitation, and that the Secretary be requested to 

 " forward a copy of this resolution to the above Association."
