ing. He invited the Academy to Gary and the Dunes, and guarantees free 
automobiles and provision to visit the points of interest on the dunes, the 
manufactories of Gary, and the Field Museum in Chicago. He also spoke 
of the work of the Dunes Park Association and its efforts to enlist interest 
in the project of making it a national park. Its preliminary step has 
been to secure an option on five hundred and twenty acres of land. Men 
of wealth are interested in its development but additional membership is 
solicited. Favorable expression was made by the members present. 
John 8. Wright explained the failure of the legislative appropriation for 
the publication of the Proceedings, through an oversight on the part of the 
enrolling clerk to include this item, together with two others, after they 
had been authorized. After a discussion of the subject it was moved and 
passed that the publication of the 1918 Proceedings proceed, and that the 
number of copies, and of free reprints to authors be reduced as much as 
necessary. 
Announcement of plans for the next day was made.
