time for reading the same. It is also earnestly 

 requested that cdl members of the Society fill out 

 and return the enclosed slip at once, whether they 

 expect to attend the meeting or not, being care- 

 ful to give the name and address as they should 

 stand on the official roll of the Society, which 

 is now being revised for the annual directory. 



Manuscripts and abstracts of papers may be 

 sent to the Secretary, Albert C. Hale, addressed 

 to Jewett, Greene Co., N. Y., till August 15; 

 after that date they should be addressed to him 

 at the Brown Palace Hotel, Denver, Coloi-ado. 



Many of the members responded with praise- 

 worthy interest and zeal in the effort to increase 

 the membership of the Society to 2,000 before 

 the date of the 25th anniversary meeting last 

 April. The time, however, was not sufficient 

 in which to attain the desired result, but it has 

 been suggested that a sufficient effort now oh 

 the part of every member of the Society would 

 enable us to raise the roll of membership to 

 2,000 before the presentation of the Secre- 

 tary's annual report in December. Will you not 

 give your personal attention to this matter, and 

 see that the enclosed blank is properly filled 

 out with the name and qualifications of some 

 eligible chemist, not now upon our roll, whom 

 you will nominate for membership, returning 

 the blank to the Secretary at your earliest con- 

 venience ? Additional blanks may be obtained 

 from the Secretary at any time, or will be for- 

 warded by him to any chemists whose names 

 are furnished him for that purpose.

 Secretary of the American Chemical Society.
