of their parks, so that when tliey are 

 turned in an index to the plants, trees 

 and shrubs of the parks of the country 

 will be in the hands of the association. 

 The greater part of the time of the 

 four days, August 24 to 27, was given 

 over to sight-seeing. The homes of An- 

 drew J. and Charles Downing and the 

 various estates designed by them, at 

 Xewburgh, were visited, as well as the 

 various places of historic importance in 

 the vicinity. Mount Beacon, the estate 

 of the late E. H. Harriman, Tuxedo 

 Park, West Point and various other 

 places near by were visited, either by 

 boat or automobile, and a grand recep- 

 tion and dance was tendered the visit- 

 ors on the evening of August 25 at the 

 factory of the Coldwell Lawn Mower 

 Co., the entire sixth floor of which had 

 been cleared and decorated for the occa- 

 sion. The last day, August 27, was 

 spent in taking in the sights of New 

 York city, including Central park, the 

 Bronx gardens, the Brooklyn park sys 

 tem and Coney Island. The successive 

 days of sight-seeing proved strenuous 

 for some of the members, hut all en- 

 joyed the meeting.
