14 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE 



response, and the Club seems to be assured of steady growth. It 

 numbers at present about one hundred members. 



On April 17 Professor Davis left Cambridge, accompanied by 

 Mr. Ellsworth Huntington as Carnegie research assistant, to pro- 

 ceed via Constantinople and Baku to Western Turkestan for the 

 study of geologic and physiographic problems, as members of 

 Professor Raphael Pumpelly's Carnegie expedition to that region. 

 This journey proved most profitable in observations on the elevated 

 shore lines of the Caspian sea, on the great fluviatile plains of 

 Turkestan, and on the terraces and glacial deposits among the 

 western ranges of the Tian Shan system as far as Lake Issikkul. 

 Professor Davis returned via Semipalatinsk, Omsk, and St. Peters- 

 burg, reaching home August 28. Mr. Huntington remains for 

 the present in Turkestan to continue the investigations begun dur- 

 ing the summer. He turned southward from Issikkul late in July, 

 and reached Kashgar near the end of August.
