President of the Indiana Academy of Science, and referred to the 
Academy for action, viz.: 
B.LuFFTon, INp., April 9, 1924. 
DeaR Mr. ALEXANDER:—I am sorry I shall not be able to attend the meeting 
of the Ohio Academy of Science April 18 and 19. 
I wish if you do so, you would extend a most cordial invitation to all members 
of the Ohio Academy of Science to meet with the Indiana Academy of Science at 
their spring meeting to be held at Marengo, Ind., May 15-17. 
At this meeting those who wish may go through the Marengo Cave at Marengo, 
and on the second day may go through Wyandotte Cave, about 13 miles distant. 
The field trips will be very interesting to the botanist and the geologist. The 
leader of the botanical section is well acquainted with the area and will show 
such rare plants as Isoetes Engelmanii, Smilax Bona-nox, and many others that 
are extremely local. The geologists will be led by one who has walked the entire 
region and is well acquainted with it. Come in hiking clothes. 
Yours most cordially, 
Cuas. C. DEAM.
