prog^ramme, and the meeting-s will be more informal than they 

 have been for some years. It is believed that greater good will 

 be accomplished by giving- more time for general discussion. A 

 glance at the subjects which are to be discussed and the men who 

 will present them is sufficient to show what is in store for the 

 members of the Club this winter. 



I desire to express on behalf of the Club our feelings of ap- 

 preciation for the use of the rooms at the Normal School and for 

 the courtesy shown by Principal White. 



It is with feelings of deep regret that we have to record the 

 loss of a member of the Ottawa Field-Naturalists' Club who was 

 always during the last twenty two years of her lifetime one of the 

 Club's most valued and best frienJs. I refer to Miss A. M. 

 Harmon, whose sad death startled us not many weeks ago. If 

 there was ever one who felt the thrill which Nature gives at times 

 to those who know and feel her charms, Miss Harmon was one. 

 She WHS one of the most faithful members of the Club, and at- 

 tended regularly its excursions, soirees and annual meetings. The 

 members of the Club will miss her kindly face this winter, and I 

 am sure will trust that her love for Nature is expanding in that 

 broader field beyond the grave. 



Ladies ai'd gentlemen, members of the Ottawa Field-Natural 

 ists' Club, I anticipate a most enjoyable and profitable series of 

 meetingfs this winter.
