s Prj:sidKnt BrinkKRho^i^ — In calling to order this the fourth 

 annual convention of the New^ Jersey State Association of Mos- 

 quito Exterminators, it is my pleasure to welcome you here. I 

 trust that this meeting will be both entertaining and instructive 

 tO' all present. It is possible that this meeting will not be as 

 largely attended as those of previous years owing to the fact that 

 our country is now at war, and many of those that might other- 

 wise have attended are now actively engaged in the service of 

 their country. 



It has been the endeavor of your Executive Committee to 

 provide as good a programi for you as could be possible under 

 such conditions. Many of those with whom Dr. Headlee com- 

 municated, and whom we were desirous of having present, have 

 been compelled through war conditions to decline. Dr. Lipman, 

 whom we always delight to have with us, and whose papers are 

 always listened to with great attention and profit, has been 

 called to Ohio. His presence here will be greatly missed. In 

 order that we may be able to give the writers of papers the 

 chance to read their papers in full instead of by title, I propose 

 to follow the time allowance on all.
