(3) Notes regarding the enemies, food, swimming peculiarities 

 and habits generally of microscopic organisms, based on direct

 therefore be brought up for informal discussion. The same is 

 also true with regard to personal experiences in the manipulation 

 of both the microscope and objects, and the preservation and 

 mounting of the latter. 



(4) Microscopical apparatus of every description, especially 

 if the result of a member's own thought and work, should, 

 whenever practicable, be brought to the meetings for inspection. 

 It often happens that an apparently quite simple device, carried 

 out in the most rough and ready manner, embodies some 

 important, and perhaps but little understood principle, or 

 possesses a much wider range of usefulness than imagined by 

 the designer. In any case, the suggestions and criticisms evoked 

 by the exhibition of such apparatus are sure to lead to beneficial 

 results.
