Organizing Committee. A committee of ten should prepare 

 plans for organization, draft a constitution, and publish its pro- 

 ceedings in The Review. If this suggestion is approved, each 

 prospective member is invited to mail a list of ten names sug- 

 gested for this committee. The secretary of The Review will 

 tabulate these replies and publish the twenty-five names receiving 

 largest number of votes. The first ten should constitute the 

 committee on organization, which should appoint its own chair- 

 man and secretary, and serve until completion of organization 

 and election of officers. 



If the general plan meets with your approval and you will be 

 one of a thousand charter members, kindly send name and address 

 to the undersigned, marking the paper or postal card "for mem,- 

 bership in nature-study society." Also send your suggestions 

 regarding name of the society, its constitution, and your ten 

 nominations for the organizing committee. The final vote for 

 organization and ofificers ought to be announced in the May or 

 September issue of The Review. If organization seems desir- 

 able, the plans should be rushed as rapidly as possible so as to 

 arrange for a one-session meeting when the science societies 

 meet next December. Will you join in the organization of an 

 American society for the advancement of nature-study?
