Mr. Geo. H. Graham of Springfield, Mass., President 

 of the National Association of Fish and Game Commis- 

 sioners, extended an invitation to the members to be 

 present at the meeting of this organization on the follow- 

 ing week and to participate in the excursion to the Cali- 

 fornia State Game Farm at Hayward. 



This was warmly seconded by Mr. Ernest Schaeffle, 

 Executive Officer of the California Fish and Game Com- 

 mission. 



A motion was made that a committee be appointed to 

 meet a delegation from the Association of Pacific Fish- 

 eries on their arrival at Oakland at six o'clock. The 

 motion was carried and Mr. Schaeffle was asked to select 

 the committee.
