AMERICAN NATURE-STUDY SOCIETY 

 FOURTH ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 30, 19 10 



The fourth annual meeting of the A. N.-S. S. will be held 

 Friday, December 30, 1910, at Minneapolis, Minnesota, in con- 

 nection with the meeting of the American Association for the 

 Advancement of Science and the many affiliated societies which 

 convene with it. It is hoped that the attractions thus offered, 

 together with the nature-study interest of the twin cities, will 

 serve to draw the largest attendance in the history of the society. 

 The place of meeting is Room 308, Folwell Hall, University of 

 Minnesota. Two sessions will be held.
