Halifax Convention. 



We trust all our members will keep 

 in mind the date fixed for the Halifa.x 

 Convention, namely, September 1, 2, 3 

 and 4. This date, it is believed, best 

 suits the needs of Nova Scotia, and, 

 on the other hand, it is the ideal time 

 for visiting the Maritime Provinces. 

 The details are now being worked out, 

 and will be given as soon as possible 

 in future issues of the Canadian For- 

 estry Journal. If any member de- 

 sires to learn about any particular 

 feature, if he will write to the Secre- 

 tary, all the information available will 

 l)e gladly given. 



Directors' Meeting. 



A meeting of the Directors was held 

 in the office of the Director of For- 

 estry, Journal Building, Ottawa, on 

 March 10. Tn spite of the fact that 

 it was held so soon after the annual 

 meeting, there was an unusually good 

 attendance of Directors. The chair 

 Avas occupied by Mr. William Power. 

 ]\r.P., the new President, who had 

 just returned from England. The 

 chief object of the meeting was to set- 

 tle definitely the date of the Halifax 

 Convention, which had been left open 

 by the Annual jMeeting for consulta- 

 tion with the Government of Nova
