REPORT OF THE MANAGING EDITOR OF THE ANNALS. 



The volume for the year 1915 has been kept within four hundred 

 pages, as the income for the year did not seem to warrant further 

 expansion. We have had but few orders from outside the United 

 States and fewer sets of volumes have been placed this year than last. 

 The total receipts for the office have been $323.41:

It may be mentioned that the prospective income for the coming 

 year will msure a fair volume and the maintainance of the Annals at 

 its present standing may be considered as practically assured.

The following, J. H. Emerton, C. Gordon Hewitt and Lawrence 

 Bruner, were elected as members of the Editorial Board of the Annals

The Secretary was directed by the Executive Committee at the 

 Washmgton meeting to sell the collection of books and papers presented 

 to the Society by Samuel Hubard Scudder at the time he was elected 

 an Honorary Fellow. Their sale was accomplished during the present 

 year for the sum of thirty-five dollars and this sum was deposited with 

 the Cleveland Trust Company, as directed by the Executive Committee 

 as_ already stated in the report of the Treasurer. The Executive Com- 

 mittee moved that fifteen dollars of the interest that has accrued to date 

 be transferred to this fund, making it a fund of fifty dollars, which was 

 to be known as the Samuel Hubbard Scudder Fund.
