44 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 
Report of the Publication Committee 
The report of the Publication Committee was received as 
follows and ordered filed. 
The committee has published the Report of the Twenty-fifth 
Annual Meeting, consisting of 202 pages and also the Report of the 
Twenty-sixth Annual Meeting, consisting of 26 pages. The first 
report was published at a cost of $222.75, and the twenty-sixth, which 
was a partial reprint from the Ohio Journal of Science, at a cost of 
$42.00. 
The method of publication of the Proceedings of the Annual Meetings 
was not fully determined at the last meeting. The Executive Com- 
mittee having been given power to act on its own initiative. After 
correspondence with members of the Executive Committee it was 
thought best to publish the Annual Report as heretofore, the first 
twelve pages consisting of list of officers and members, being set up 
separately, and the Secretary’s Report reprinted from the Journal of 
Science. It was not thought necessary to reprint the President’s 
address, since this will now be published regularly in the Ohio Journal 
of Science. 
The committee recommends that the Proceedings of the Academy 
be handled in the regular way as heretofore, and that the Annual Report 
mainly a reprint from the Ohio Journal of Science, consisting of lists 
of officers and members, and the Secretary’s Report be continued. The 
committee strongly urges that the publication of special papers be 
continued also and that if possible at least one be published each year. 
Respectfully submitted, 
Joun H. SCHAFFNER, Chairman, 
L. B. WALTON.
