To The Writer: 



""PHE attention of the members of the Institute presenting 

 ■*■ communications for publication is directed to the follow- 

 lowing notes: 



1. Fifty "separates" of each communication accepted 

 by the Council for publication are provided for the author; 



2. Drawings which have to be reduced in size should have 

 the lines and letters sufficiently large to be distinctly visible 

 in the print; the drawings should be about double the size of 

 the desired print; and the copy should be carefully typed or in 

 distinct manuscript; 



3. The nomenclature of species, etc., should be given in 

 good form, as recommended by the authorities directing the ab- 

 stracting of scientific literature; 



4. References to previous or other papers should be made 

 clearly and neatly in the forms approved by the said abstracting 

 authorities; 



5. The title of a "paper" communicated should be made 

 as brief as possible while expressing its subjet as definitely as 

 desirable. 



6. Footnotes pertaining to the text of the "paper" should 

 be numbered consecutively (from 1 onwards) by superscript 

 numerals placed (above) after the word or sentence to which 

 the note refers. As these footnotes will be in smaller type and 

 therefore set up on a different machine, they should be all writ- 

 ten in consecutive order as an appendix to the "paper". The 

 printer will place each at the base of its proper page when 

 making up the page.
