identified with economic entomology in this country, and aside from his scientific 

 ability he was a man of admirable qualities and wide information. 



Resolved, That the Association of Economic Entomologists desires also to express 

 its sense of loss through the death of Miss E. A. Ormerod. of England. Long before 

 this body came into existence, at a time when economic entomologj' was ignored 

 in England, Miss Ormerod took up the study of injurior.s insects, and published 

 numerous valuable reports directing the farmers how to recognize and deal with 

 their insect foes. She not only did this for England, but extended her researches 

 through the aid of correspondents to the colonies, and always took a lively interest 

 in the work done in Americac As an example of private initiative and unselfish 

 devotion to the public interest Miss Ormerod's work deserves to rank with that of 

 Lawes and Gilbert at Rothamstead. 



Resolved, That we request the Honorable Secretary of Agriculture to publish 

 the proceedings of this meeting, and that we express to him our hearty apprecia- 

 tion of such action in previous years. 



Resolved, That we express our thanks to the officials of the Denver High School. 

 to the people of Denver and the local committee of the American Association for 

 the Advancement of Science, to the Association, and to the local press for courte- 

 sies extended.
