 ings is the Convention Hand-Book. It 

 contains a simple Manual of Parliamentary 

 Law and Rules of Order for Local Bee- 

 Conventions; Constitution and By-Laws 

 for a Local Society ; Programme for a Con- 

 vention, with Subjects for Discussion. In 

 addition to this, there are about 50 blank 

 pages, to make notes upon, or to write out 

 questions, as they may come to mind. 

 They are nicely bound in cloth, and are of 

 the right size for the pocket. We will 

 present a copy for one new subscription to 

 the Bee Journal, besides your own re- 

 newal (with §2 to pay for the same), or 2

 always extend the time from the date of 

 expiration on our books. If you want any 

 other magazine or newspaper, we can furn- 

 ish it, and save you money by clubbing it 

 with the Bee Journal. See our list of a 

 few of them on page 27.
