64 NEW YORK ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY 



Station, who spoke at length on "Jungle Life and its Opportuni- 

 ties for Scientific Investigation." He gave a most vivid descrip- 

 tion of the South American jungle and its living inhabitants. 

 The lecture was beautifully illustrated by pictures in color, so 

 real that the presentation seemed the jungle itself. Despite an 

 unusually severe storm, a large audience was present, and inter- 

 est in the Society's activities was thus extended. 



The annual Spring Garden Party was held at the Zoological 

 Park on May 20. It was a rare, sparkling spring day, and New 

 Yorkers, with their usual love and appreciation of the beautiful, 

 attended in large numbers, and with real delight basked in the 

 sunshine, visited the animals — all rejoicing in spring — walked 

 through the lovely woods, and admired the exquisite spring 

 foliage of the flowers and shrubs. Music on the lawn, and a few 

 military uniforms added a fine touch to the scene, and it was a 

 most delightful afternoon, all appreciating the glories of the 

 Park. 



Respectfully submitted, 



Mrs. H. Fairfield Osborn, Chairman.
