Lectures and Class Work 
During March I gave three lectures on “‘ Evolution in Flowering 
Plants’’; during May and June eight outdoor lessons on ‘Spring 
Flowers and Ferns’’; during the fall six outdoor lessons on “ Fall 
Flowers and Fruit.” 
Personal Activities 
During the year I acted as chairman of the field committee of 
the Torrey Botanical Club. In the fall I began work on an 
abridged, revised edition of Dr. G. T. Stevens's illustrated Guide 
to the Flowering Plants of the Northeastern States.
