arrangements of the pictures and of the titles. Mr. Wilbur M. 

 Walden was designated by the associated executives as the man 

 to select the scenes and to furnish the transportation, being prom- 

 ised, wherever necessary, help by the executive in whose county 

 the scene was being taken. The picture has now been completed 

 and was the one just shown. It was the thought of the associated 

 executives that the moving picture would appeal to all ages of 

 people, and through the medium of the moving picture houses in 

 general should carry the information to three-fourths of the 

 people of the state. 



In addition to these projects that are now well under way, the 

 associated executives are working upon the problem of standard- 

 izing and improving the methods of salt marsh drainage, and also 

 upon the problem of standardizing mosquito control statistics. 



Respectfully submitted, 



THOMAS J. HEADLEE, 



Secretary. 



Pri:side:nt Meyers — The report will stand approved as read, 

 if there are no objections. 



The Committee on Resolutions will now report. 



Report of the Committee on Resolutions. 



Your Committee on Resolutions reports toi the ninth annual 

 meeting of the New Jersey Mosquito Extermination Association 

 held at Atlantic City, N. J., March 1-3, 1922, that it recommends 

 the following: 



I. Whereas, Since the last meeting of this association Mr. Howard B. 

 Vannote, president of the Bergen County Mosquito Extermination Commis- 

 sion, has passed away; and 



Whereas, Mr. Vannote was a pioneer in mosquito work in this state, a 

 member of this association, and one of the most interested, competent and 

 tireless anti-mosquito workers we have ever had ; 



Therefore, he it resolved, That this association express its sorrow in the 

 loss of Mr. Vannote and its appreciation for the many years of loyal service 

 and patient endeavor that Mr. Vannote gave to make mosquito control a 

 reality in New Jersey. 



^ 2. That we make known to the management of the Hotel Chalfonte our 

 sincere appreciation of the manner in which we have been received an enter- 

 tained and to their employees for their courtesy. 



3. That we appreciate the faithful efforts put forth during the past year by 

 our officers and committees, and we are sure that by reason of their work 

 the cause for which we have been striving has been greatly advanced. 



4. We are more than ever convinced that the mosquito can be practically 

 exterminated, and municipalities of this state are perfectly justified in the 

 expenditures of money for this object. 



5. We heartily commend the work of the State Experiment Station and 

 appreciate the faithfulness of Dr. Lipman and Dr. Headlee in their tireless 

 assistance to us. 



6. That we extend our thanks to Dr. L. O. Howard, Chief of Bureau of 

 Entomology, U. S. Dept. of Agriculture; Dr. Thos. J. Headlee, Executive
