American rishcrics Society 13 



tu tliis Sociel}- tor honorary nieni1)erslii]). Therefore, T have 

 the honor to make a motion to that effect. 



President : I wonld suggest that we hold this matter in 

 abeyance until the general subject of election of members 

 comes up, and in the meantime, if you will permit, I would 

 like to announce a committee on the reading" of papers. 

 There are some articles h'ing on this desk which are ready 

 for use. There is also a provisional program to which refer- 

 ence can be made. I understand that S(Mne of the authors 

 desire to be heard as soon as i)ossil)le. Tlierefore, I think the 

 whole subject should be referred to a committee, and we can 

 then proceed in an orderly manner. I would name on that 

 committee : 



Air. John E. (lunckel. of Toledo; Air. Seymour Bower, of 

 Detroit, and Air. Charles H. Ste\enson, Washington. D. C. 



The roll call of mem])ers is the next order of business. 



Mr. C. \V. Wii.i.ard, Westerly, R. 1.: The roll lias 

 usuallv been called l)\' the use of cards to be i)assed in by the 

 diiferent members who are present, and the cards are here 

 at the stenographer's desk. 



President: I am reminded that the turning in of the 

 cards constitutes the roll call. Please bear in mind that if 

 any members come in later the\' should hand in cards.
