sent on receipt of application from possible members, 

 and the small subscription of 5s. per annum — from August 

 to August — entitling to four issues of the " Gazette " and all 

 the privileges of membership, should certainly not form 

 an obstacle to joining to any real Fern lover. 



The subscription for 1913-14 is now due, and the 

 Hon. Secretary would be obliged by its remittance at 

 an early date to his address, 11, Shaa Road, Acton, 



London, W.

OUR FRONTISPIECE. 



Polypodinm vulgare vav. semilacevum falcatum 0' Kelly, which 

 our Frontispiece represents, was found by Mr. O' Kelly of 

 Ballyvaughan, Ireland, and we are much indebted to 

 our member, Mr. T. E. Henwood, for supplying a photo- 

 graph of a typical frond. It is a bold, erect grower, and as 

 will be noted is distinguished from all the other sejiii- 

 lacevtim forms by the peculiarly falcate curving of the pinnoi 

 and the obtuseness of the subdivisions. As grown by 

 Mr. Henwood it is very handsome indeed, and a distinct 

 acquisition. The Editor. 



ScoL. Vulgare var. Crispum Nobile : Bolton's 



Broad Form. 



With reference to this beautiful fern, illustrated and 

 described in the June •* Gazette," page 77, Mr. Cranfield 

 informs us that he obtained it from Mr. T. Bolton and not 

 Mr. H. Bolton as stated, an error which we hasten to 

 correct with apologies.
