couveilieiicc; if contributors would send in tlieir Abstracts on slips of 
unifo rin size, the size desired being eight inches by five inches, the long 
edge to be treated as the top of the page. A separate slip for each 
item permits the easy sorting of the MS. without the transcription which 
is otherwise too often necessary in the preparation of copy for the 
printer. The uniform slips can be easily filed and will be available for 
future reference, thus enabling the Editor to avoid repetition and to 
make helpful references to previous notes. 
The author’s name should be followed by the reference in full. 
The abstractor is indicated by initials in scpiare brackets at end of 
note.

tions are also reiiuested to send details to Mr. Kent. 
PHOTOCR.ABHS OF FIELD AIEETINGS
