NOTE:— The above talks, except the last group, will be given only at the

grounds make it possible to acquaint the children with the living material. 
Principals and teachers should make appointments for classes at least three 
days in advance. These talks are listed by grades to correlate with the city 
syllabus in nature study and geography. Any talk will be given to any class 
of either public or private schools, regardless of this grading. Talks 20-22 
will be given also at any school on request. 
There may be other talks on botanical subjects and nature 
study which teachers desire, and which do not appear on the 
above list. Such talks as far as possible, will be given on 
application by the teacher. All applications should be in writing 
on cards provided by the Garden for the purpose. These cards
