EDITORIAL. 



We are pleased to be able to announce 

 the beginning of a series of articles on 

 "Laboratory Methods in Bacteriology," 

 by Prof. F. G. Novy, of the University 

 of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan, in 

 the September number of the Journal. 

 This series will, like the "Notes on Mi- 

 croscopical Technique," deal in a concise 

 and perfectly plain manner with the 

 methods used in the laboratory, the first 

 paper being "Examination of Bacteria." 

 The rapid, accurate, and practical meth- 

 ods which have made courses in Dr. 

 Novy's laboratory so popular are a suffi- 

 cient guarantee of the value which these 

 papers will be to the readers of the 

 Journal.

The July installment of Dr. G. Carl 

 Ruber's "Notes on Microscopical Tech- 

 nique" was marked erroneously "con- 

 tinued," as the fifth paper concluded the 

 series. These papers will shortly be pub- 

 lished in book form and will be Volume 

 I of the Library of Applied Microscopy.

Beginning with the September number 

 of the Journal, the department of 'News 

 and Notes" will be made a special fea- 

 ture. It is desired to make this depart- 

 ment represent the everyday life of the 

 users of the microscope in all kinds of 

 laboratories, the place where sugges- 

 gestions and queries may be exchanged 

 in an informal manner and where many 

 a useful process, bit of apparatus, method 

 of demonstration, specially suited sub- 

 ject for demonstration, etc., may be pre- 

 served from the oblivion of forgetful- 

 ness. Many of our readers are young 



teachers to whom the experience of 

 others is of the greatest benefit. We re- 

 quest "News and Notes" from all users 

 of the microscope, believing they will be 

 of mutual interest and benefit. 



NEWS AND NOTES. 



Minor notes on technique, personals, news items, 

 notices of meetings of societies, conventions, etc., 

 will be received up to the twenty-second of the 

 month preceding issue.
