improve the situation, and a large number of names were 
recommended and unanimously elected to the complimentary 
position. Still, it is to be regretted that the suggestions of 
some of the Committee, as well as those made by European 
veterinary journals, should have been overlooked or ignored, 
and that the names of a deceased gentleman should have been 
included among the candidates, and elected to membership. 
The name of Director Wehenkel, several years deceased, is 
an error which we hope the Committee on Publication will 
duly rectify. The other gentlemen elected to honorary mem¬ 
bership are : 
Prof. Dr. Roll, K. K. Militar, ThierarzneiInstitute, Vienna, Austria; Prof. 
Dr. Bang, Royal Veterinary College, Copenhagen, Denmark ; Prof. E. Nocard, 
Alfort Veterinary School, Alfort, France ; Dr. Arloing, Director Lyons Veteri¬ 
nary School, Lyons, France; Prof. W. Dickerhoff, Rector der Thierarztlichen 
Hoch-Schule, Berlin, Germany; Herr Prof. Dr. J. Johne, Thierarztlichen 
Hocb-Schule, Dresden, Germany ; Herr Prof. H. Moller, Thierarztlichen Hoch- 
Schule, Berlin, Germany ; Prof. Wm. Williams, New Veterinary College, Leith- 
walk, Edinboro, Scotland; Prof. J. McFadyean, Royal Veterinary College, 
Great College St., Camden Town, England; Prof. Dr. Thomassen, Reichsthier- 
arzneischule, Utrecht, Holland; and Prof. Perroncito, Royal Veterinary Col¬ 
lege, Turin, Italy. 
A special committee which had been appointed, to be

following paper, which was voted upon favorably : 
Mr. Chairman: 
Your committee would suggest the adoption of the seal of this Association, 
reduced to the following sizes : one of the size of a quarter of a dollar for bill¬ 
heads and letter-heads, and one of the size of a dime, which may be used on vis¬ 
iting cards if so desired. Your committee would recommend that the emblem 
be not given out until such time as a charter of incorporation of the Association 
be obtained. 
A. W. Clement, Chairman. 
This was a good move. Veterinarians in America are 
much in need of a uniform means of recognition, and if the 
emblem will not rid us of the many varieties of titles so often 
met with, it will, at least, have the good effect of establishing 
something that will serve as a link of professional fraternity, 
with some national meaning and importance, especially when
