ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ENTOMOLOGICAL CLUB OF 

 THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCE- 

 MENT OF SCIENCE. 



(Concluded from September No.) 



'August 2 1 st, 1878. 



The Club met in the same place at 3 o'clock p. m., the President in 

 the chair. 



There was a much larger attendance than yesterday of members and 

 those interested in Entomology. 



The first order of business was the reading of the report of the special 

 committee appointed yesterday. Mr. Reed presented the report. 



The committee to whom was referred the question of the constitution 

 of a quorum beg to report as follows : 



Whereas it is most desirable in the interest of the Club that a definite 

 and permanent character should be given to all its proceedings, and that 

 nothing should be left undone which would tend to establish complete 

 confidence in the manner of transacting the business of the Club, 



Your committee therefore recommend that the constitution be amended 

 by providing 



(1) That no business of the Club shall be transacted unless there 

 are present a quorum of ten persons, who shall have been enrolled as 

 members of the Club at least one year previous to the then session. 



(2) That when motions shall have been carried by the Club, the same 

 shall not be rescinded at any subsequent meeting unless there be present 

 as many members as were present at the date of passing such motions.
