160 . PROCEEDINGS OF THE OHIO ACADEMY OF SCIENCE. 



Lastly, this is the twenty-fourth annual meeting, counting the organ- 

 ization meeting of 1891 as the first. Does the Academy desire a special 

 celebration of the Quarter Centennial? If so, when? Either- the twenty- 

 fifth annual meeting, next fall, or the completion of twenty-five years of 

 activity, a year later, would seem a logical time for such a celebration. 

 The secretary suggests the appointment of a special committee to consider 

 this matter.
