54 BULLETIN OF THE LABORATORIES 



The Journal of Comparative Neurology was founded in 

 1891 by C. L. Herrick, then Professor of Biology in the University of 

 Cincinnati. It is devoted to the study of the nervous system of man 

 and the lower animals so far as these studies are conducted by the 

 comparative method in the broadest sense of that term, a field not oc- 

 cupied by any other periodical in any language. Its pages are chiefly 

 occupied with original contributions to science and these are fully illus- 

 trated with many plates. An important feature, however, is the review 

 department by means of which the reader is kept in touch with the 

 latest and best current literature both in this country and abroad. Due 

 attention is given to the psychological bearing of neurological discover- 

 ies and to the data of comparative psychology. 



In 1893, upon Professor Herrick's return to Denison Universtty, 

 the Journal became one of the university publications and since then 

 an annual grant has been made for its support. In 1894, Professor 

 Herrick's brother, C. Judson Herrick, became one of the editors and 

 has since that time been the business manager. In 1896 the editorial 

 staff was reorganized with Professor C. L. Herrick as Editor-in-chief 

 and Oliver S. Strong of Columbia University and C. Judson Herrick 

 of Denison University as Associate Editors. In 1898, beginning with 

 the first number of Vol. VIII, there have been added to the editorial 

 staff a number of Collaborators, all men of eminence in their respect- 

 ive departments and representing leading institutions in this country 

 and Europe. At the present writing the list of Collaborators is not yet
