Faith is in them — a faith that sees 



The broader life of the sin52;ing spheres; 

 Faith in the Infinite Ciod of Trees, 



Who counts a day as a thousand years. 

 Timeless ages they lived and grew, 



And carried on as their brothers fell; 

 Seeing only a work to do, 



Knowing only to do it well. 



Thus, as we each must come and go, 

 We do our part as the ages climb — 

 Human forces that ebb and flow 



Like waves of Life on the shores of Time! 

 May we each, in the work we do, 



Whatever duties our fate assigns, 

 Keep the courage to see it through — 



Hold the faith of the Torrey Pines.

Miss Lister's "Mycetozoa"* 



The third edition of Lister's monograph of the "Mycetozoa" 

 has just appeared. The first edition of this standard work on 

 the slime-moulds appeared in 1894 and represented the results 

 of many years of labor on the part of Mr. Arthur Lister. The 

 drawings, many of which were in color, were executed b}" Mr. 

 Lister and his able daughter Miss Gulielma Lister. Mr. Lister 

 died July 19, 1908. 



The widespread interest in the first edition resulted in bringing 

 in much new material. As a result of this Miss Lister prepared 

 a second edition, much enlarged and with improvements in the 

 quality of the plates. The second edition appeared in 1911. 



The third edition dated Januar^^ 1925, includes three additional 

 genera and forty-six new species. Some of the new species are 

 raised from varietal rank. Twenty-two new plates have been 

 added, eight of which are colored. 



The appearance of this excellent monograph will be an in- 

 valuable aid to students of slime-moulds the world over, since 

 many of these minute organisms are cosmopolitan in their dis- 

 tribution. Especialh' is the author to be congratulated on the 

 number and excellence of the illustrations.- — Fred J. Seaver.
