accommodation, the L.M.B.C. has, in consultation with 

 the Nature-Study Association of Teachers in Liverpool, 

 drawn up the following intimation, which was circulated 

 last spring, and is now repeated with a few changes: — 



Special Class in Marine Biology, or Nature-Study, 

 for School Teachers, to be held at Port

 and is admirably adapted in every respect for classes of 

 this description. 



A large laboratory on the first floor, provided with

 will be provided with the necessary animals (or when 

 possible, and as is much better, will be shown how to 

 collect them himself), salt and fresh water, and all 

 materials and apparatus necessary for the work.

 and willing to stay longer, further arrangements can be 

 made at the time. 



The class will be limited to twelve students, each of 

 whom will pay 5s. to the L.M.B.C. for the use of the 

 laboratory, and in addition a tuition fee of 5s. These 

 fees should be remitted to Mr. Chadwick before the
