18 PROTECTION OF PLANTS, 1917-18 



Our younger men are fortunate in the possession of so many advantages ver 

 the older men who had to labor under great handicaps. With their greater oppor- 

 tunities may we not hope for increasingly greater progress in the next ten years. 

 Our Society enters the second decade of its existence under happy auspices, and I 

 look forward hopefully for an increased membership of young men trained in the 

 new school, able to carry on the good work done by the men who founded the 

 Society. "*
