people, our department will be glad to put him in touch with those who 

 will produce shrimp meal for him. 



President Avery : To my mind this is a very excellent paper, deal- 

 ing not only with an important branch of the Bureau of Fisheries, but 

 indicating also a weakness in our own Society. While the discussion 

 took a somewhat different tack, the paper dealt largely with matters of 

 importance to the commercial fisheries, which are not represented in the 

 Society to any great extent. I think it would strengthen the Society, 

 and perhaps be beneficial to the trade as well, if we could arouse their 

 interest in our activities. This is'a suggestion to those who are working 

 upon the problem of enlarging our membership, and strengthening the 

 Society.
