During the winter season the students in the advanced classes 

 attended regular evening meetings, which were designed to serve 

 the purpose accomplished by the Seminaria of the German uni- 

 versities. 



During the summer of 1891, forty-one students received instruc- 

 tion in the field. This instruction was given in three graded 

 schools, one of which, the elementary school, was taught in 

 Cambridge, and the other two in New York, New Jersey, and the 

 New England States. Instruction in these courses was given 

 by N. S. Shaler, W. M. Davis, J. E. Wolff, C. Cobb, and J. B. 

 Woodworth, with the assistance of Prof. H. S. Williams of 

 Cornell University, Prof. A. P. Brigham of Utica, N. Y., Prof. 

 R. D. Salisbury of the University of Wisconsin, and Mr. C. W. 

 Coman, Assistant, New Jersey Geological Survey, who collabo- 

 rated with the other instructors in the work done in New York 

 and New Jersey. 



During the year, the following papers of a scientific nature 

 have been published by N. S. Shaler : —
