ErQUor s ^^^ ^^^^ ^^ ^^^j^ n-ioxMh. It is to 



v^orner i^g devoted exclusively to notes 



and articles on Lepidoptera. Short notes and articles 

 are solicited for publication. The Bulletin will be 

 made a fortnightly publication as soon as possible and 

 if given the right support will be made a weekly. This 

 is our AIM. We find that there is no weekly paper 

 published in this country and so it is practically im- 

 possible to advertise non-hibernating living material 

 which of course has only a limited time for offer of 

 sale. 



The Boston Entomological Club 

 Notes was formed in October, 1915. 



The Club only encourages mem- 

 bership to Entomologists that are interested in the 

 study and collecting of Lepidoptera. There are at 

 the present time twenty members in good standing. 

 The dues are fifty cents per year. 



The Club has one feature which is new to Ento- 

 mological Societies in this country. After each regu- 

 lar business meeting the Club holds an auction sale of 

 specimens belonging to various members. A 10 per 

 cent commission is charged which is placed in the 

 treasury of the Club. Several hundred dollars worth 

 of material has changed hands in this manner to the 

 satisfaction of all concerned.
