86 TRANSACTIONS LIVERPOOL BIOLOGICAL SOCIETY. | 
Occasional collecting expeditions are arranged under 
guidance either on the sea-shore or out at sea, and all under- 
graduate workers should make a point of taking part in these. 
It is desirable that students should also occasionally take 
plankton gatherings in the bay for examination in the living 
state, and boats are provided for this purpose at the expense of 
the Biological Station to a reasonable extent. Students desiring 
to obtain a boat for such a purpose must apply to the Curator 
at the Laboratory for a boat voucher. Boats for pleasure trips 
are not supplied by the Biological Station, but must be provided 
by those who desire them at their own expense. 
Students requiring any apparatus, glass-ware or chemicals 
from the store-room must apply to the Curator. Although the 
Committee keep a few microscopes at the Biological Station, 
these are mainly required for the use of the staff or for general 
demonstration purposes. Students are therefore strongly 
advised, especially during University vacations, not to rely 
upon being able to obtain a suitable microscope, but ought if 
possible to bring their own instruments. 
Students are advised to provide themselves upon arrival 
with the “ Guide to the Aquarium ” (price 3d.), and should each 
also buy a copy of the set of Local Maps (price 2d.) upon which 
to insert their faunistic records and other notes. 
Occasional evening meetings in the Biological Station for 
lecture and demonstration purposes will be arranged from time 
to time. Apart from these, it is generally not advisable that 
students should come back to work in the laboratory in the 
evening ; and in all cases all lights will be put out and doors 
locked at 10 p.m. When the institution is closed, the key can 
be obtained, by those who have a valid reason for entering the 
building, only on personal application to Mr. Chadwick, the 
Curator, at 3, Rowany Terrace.
