LORQUINIA 
The Geological Section will meet in the Music Room of the 
PubUc Library Tuesday evening, July 17th, at 7:30 o'clock. All 
interested persons are cordially invited. 
NOTES 
The new edition of the Flora of Los Angeles and Vicinity, by 
Prof. L. R. Abrams, of Stanford University, is a handy, pocket-size 
volume of 432 pages. The keys to both genera and species make 
it much more convenient in use than the old edition, and the book 
will fill a place that has been vacant for some time. 
At the meeting of the Botanical Section of the Southern Cali- 
fornia Academy of Sciences, June 28th, Prof. L. R. Abrams gave 
a very interesting talk on The Possibilities and Opportunities for 
Botanical Study in Southern California. We hope to give a synop- 
sis of his remarks in a future issue. 
We call special attention to the articles by President Ruthling 
on the Club and its activities. Especially would we like to note 
the growth in membership from 20 last August to 77 at the present 
time. The Club should have 200 members within the next year.
