6 ( 'incinnati Society of Natural History. 



All the material so loaned has been returned to the Society 

 in good condition. 



The Society is in a position to do much more than has ever 

 been done for the cause of Science. This certainly can not 

 be done by an " inner circle," a certain few of " the faithful." 

 May not each and every member put his shoulder to the 

 wheel and help. Locally, we must be advertised, as never 

 before. The best way to do this is to tell our friends and 

 neighbors of our Society, and what we are doing. In short, 

 to " talk the Society," and bring in new active members. 

 Abroad, we are judged by our journal — as a Society, whether 

 dead or alive, by the Proceedings published therein. Should 

 it, then, not be the duty of every member to attend the meet- 

 ings, and bring in papers and material for discussion? 



We are prepared to better work than ever before, and by 

 united effort it will surpass our fondest hopes. 



Respectfully submitted, 

 Seth Hayes, 



Director of the Museum.
