President Morgan called First Vice-President Summers to the chair 

 while he presented the annual address. 



The report of the Treasurer was read and referred to the auditing 

 committee. 



The Secretary reported that as no program committee was ap- 

 pointed at the last meeting, he had made up the final program and 

 it had been printed and distributed. He also reported for the com- 

 mittee appointed at the last meeting to prepare and forward certifi- 

 cates of membership to the foreign members, and stated that this had 

 been done. Several acknowledgments were read to the Association 

 showing that the certificates had been received and were greatly 

 appreciated. 



The Secretary stated that he had made an attempt to codify the 

 constitution, in accordance with a resolution passed at the last meet- 

 ing, but found it very difficult to do so on account of several contra- 

 dictory amendments. He therefore suggested that a special com- 

 mittee be appointed to revise the constitution and report, so that 

 action could be taken at the next annual nleeting. 



By vote of the Association the report of the Secretary was accepted. 



On motion it was voted that the chair appoint a committee of three 

 to revise the constitution. 



The Secretary read a list of proposals for membership which he 

 had received and it was referred to the committee on membership. 

 He also reported that the following members of the Association had 

 resigned during the year: J. M. Aldrich, Moscow, Idaho; H. P. 

 Gould, Washington, D. C, and Gerald McCarthy, Raleigh, N. C.
