the American Museum of Natural History, New York 
City, on Thursday, Jan. 11, 1912, at 2 o’clock, follow- 
ing the Annual Meeting of the Society. 
The meeting was called to order by President 
Hooper, who immediately called Mr. Edmund Seymour 
to the chair, and taking the floor, placed in nomination 
for President, Dr. Wiliam T. Hornaday. 
Dr. Hornaday then nominated Professor Hooper 
for a second term, and strongly urged that no change 
be made, especially at this time when the Wind Cave

indefatigable efforts of President Hooper—was pending. 
Dr. Hooper: “I withdraw; there is but one man 
for the position.” 
Dr. Hornaday: “I could not take on an additional 
burden.”’ 
Professor Hooper was then unanimously reelected 
President of the Society. 
For First Vice-President, Dr. Palmer nominated 
Prof. Henry Fairfield Osborn, and Mr. Seymour nom- 
inated Dr. Hornaday. Dr. Hornaday was chosen. 
Dr. John C. Phillips, of Wenham, Mass., was elected 
Second Vice-President. 
As Secretary and Treasurer, the present incumbents, 
Messrs. Wharton and Clark Williams, were continued in 
office. 
Honorable Theodore Roosevelt and His Excellency 
Earl Grey were reelected Honorary President and Honor- 
ary Vice-President respectively. 
The entire Executive Committee was also reelected. 
On motion of Mr. Seymour it was Voted: That the
