An adjourned session was held at 11:45 on the following morning. The appointment of the following committees for the meeting was announced by the chair: Committee on Membership—C. G. Shatzer, E. P. Durrant, Frank Carney. Committee on Resolutions—L. B. Walton, Frank R. Elliott, A. B. Plowman. Committee on Necrology—W. C. Mills, J. S. Hine, J. H. Schaffner. The following Auditing Committee was elected by the Academy: C. G. Shatzer, W. R. Lazenby. The following Nominating Committee was elected by the ballot of the Academy just before the close of the first business session: F.C. Blake, F. L. Landacre, Frank Carney. Report of the Secretary. The following report by the Secretary was received and ordered filed: ; DELAWARE, Onto, April 19, 1916. The work of the Secretary since the last Annual Meeting has been largely routine. A report of the Anniversary Meeting was printed in the OxIo JOURNAL OF SCIENCE and in SCIENCE; and notice of the present meeting Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 15 has been sent to the leading dailies in Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Toledo. As directed by the Academy, letters containing the relevant por- tions of the report presented at the last meeting by the Committee on Resolutions were sent to the societies naming delegates to the Anni- versary Meeting, tc all delegates in attendance, and to other individuals and organizations mentioned in the resolutions. The Secretary has also followed the instructions of the Academy in revising and reprinting the circular of information concerning the scope of the work of the Academy. The revised circular was mailed with the preliminary announcement of this meeting. At the last meeting the Secretary reported correspondence with Dean Leutner, Secretary of the Ohio College Association, concerning the desirability of an active co-operation of the Academy with the College Association. The change in the date of the annual meeting of the Academy has made such co-operation possible and natural. Further correspondence and conferences with the members of the Program Committee and with Dean Leutner have resulted in the present arrange- ment of the program. It may be noted that a rather unusually small number of titles on the Academy program has facilitated this co-opera- tion. A fuller program might well lead to complications. In view of this fact, it may be wise for the Academy to take action at this meeting, instructing next year’s Secretary and Program Committee as to the desirability of continuing, extending, or restricting this affiliation with the Ohio College Association and other societies. Respectfully submitted, | EpWArRD L. Rice, Secretary. Report of the Treasurer for the Year 1916. The report of the Treasurer was received as follows, and referred to the Auditing Committee: For the year since our last annual meeting, the receipts, including balance from last year, have amounted to $547.70, and the expenditures to $249.57, leaving a cash balance of $298.13.

DELAWARE, Onto, April 21, 1916. Since the last Annual Meeting of the Academy two joint meetings of the Executive Committee and Publication Committee have been called—December 28, 1915, and April 21, 1916. At the first meeting it was decided to hold the Annual Meeting of the Academy for 1916 in Columbus on April 21 and 22, in affiliation with the meeting of the Ohio College Association. The details of co-operation were left to the Program Committee for adjustment. Owing to scanty attendance at this meeting, the consideration of the publication of the addresses presented at the Anniversary Meeting (referred by the Academy to the joint committees) was deferred. At the meeting of April 21 it was decided, after discussion, that the finan- cial condition of the Academy will permit the publication of all the addresses in the Report of the Anniversary Meeting, and the Publication Committee was instructed to proceed with the publication. Since the last Annual Meeting two applications for membership have been approved by the Executive Committee. These names will be presented to the Academy later for ratification. Respectfully submitted, Epwarop L. Rice, Secretary. Report of the Emerson McMillin Research Fund. The following report of the Trustees of the Research Fund was received and referred to the Auditing Committee. For that part of the year 1915-16, dating from Nov. 25, 1915 to April 21, 1916.

The committee recommends that after the publication of the reports of the 25th meeting, the Proceedings of the Academy be enlarged to the standard magazine size, 7 x 10 inches. Joun H. SCHAFFNER, Chairman. Report of the Library Committee. For the Library Committee, Professor Mills made an oral report, introducing Mr. Reeder, of the Ohio State University Library.. The following report by Mr. Reeder was received ° and ordered filed. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The University Library begs to report that it has cared for all the accessions to the Library of the Academy which have been received since the November meeting, 1915. The deposit has been moved to Deck 5, in the book stack, on which floor is shelved the Library’s file of reports and proceedings of scientific societies. During the period covered by this report, publications of the Academy have been sold to the amount of $22.00. This sum has been ~ turned over to the Treasurer. All correspondence, concerning the publications of the Academy and its exchanges, has been given prompt attention and is on file in the University Library. Very respectfully, C. W. REEDER. April 21, 1916. Report of the Committee on the Ohio Journal of Science. The Committee on the Relation of the Academy to the Ohio Journal of Science presented a divided report. The majority favored the continuance of the present relation, modified somewhat in the direction of a closer affiliation; a.minority recommended ‘“‘that the present relationship of the Academy and the Ohio Journal of Science be terminated, and a com- mittee be appointed to consider the question of some form of Academy publication, as ample and representative as our income will permit.”’ 18 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science After extended discussion, the Academy took the following actions: 1. That the Committee on the Relation of the Academy to the Ohio Journal of Science be instructed to formulate more definitely the two plans, proposed respectively in the majority and minority reports, and to submit both to the membership of the Academy for an expression of opinion, this to be con- sidered not as a formal ballot, but merely as a guide in the further consideration of the question by the next Annual Meeting. 2. That the Academy request the appointment upon the Editorial Board of the Journal of one representative from each organized section of the Academy. (Note—The Secretary has received notice of the cordial agreement of the management of ' the Journal to this request.) 3. That the detailed arrangements for the coming year be referred to the Executive Committee with power. No formal report was presented by the Committee on Legislation. The Committee was continued. Report of Committee on Catalog of Scientific Journals. The following report was presented by Mr. Reeder, of the Ohio State University Library, for the Committee on Catalog of Scientific Journals. The report was received and ordered filed and the Committee continued to carry on the work. April 21, 1916. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Committee on the Union Catalog of Scientific Periodicals begs leave to submit the following report: At a meeting held during the sessions of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, at the Ohio State University, December, 1915, it was decided to co-operate with the College Section of the Ohio Library Association in the preparation, not of a purely scientific catalog, but in a catalog of all periodical sets in Ohio Libraries. The College Section of the Library Association, at its annual meeting in October, 1915, appointed a committee consisting of Messrs. Miller (Ohio Wes- leyan), Read (Cincinnati), and Reeder (Ohio State), to begin the preparation of a Union Catalog which would be of assistance to the Universities and Colleges in handling requests for the inter-library loan of books and volumes of sets. The Committee of the Academy felt that such a Union Catalog, if complete, would include the scientific and technical sets, and therefore duplicate the catalog planned by the Academy. It was decided that co-operation in this undertaking was Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 19 advisable. Mr. C. W. Reeder, representing both the Library Associa- tion and the Academy, was instructed to draw up a statement outlining in detail the plans of both organizations for the preparation of the joint union catalog. After considerable correspondence, the following state- ment, which was to be sent to libraries, was agreed upon: UNION CATALOG OF PERIODICAL SETS IN OHIO LIBRARIES. The Ohio Academy of Science and the College Section of the Ohio Library Association, jointly, propose to compile a Union Catalog of the periodical and scientific sets (except documents) in the libraries of the State. This catalog is to be made on cards, (Library Bureau No. 33030 or any 3 x 5 stock) and filed with the Ohio State University Library, the official depository of the Ohio Academy of Science. Ultimately the Academy hopes to print this union catalog for the benefit both of librarians and of scientists. However, until printed, it will be possible for any one to write directly to the Ohio State University Library and secure information concerning the location of any scientific set in the State. The Library of Congress rules will be followed in main entry. If a series has ceased publication, or has not been continued, the closed entry will be used as v. 1-10, 1865-1874. If the series is being continued, the open entry will be used, as v. 1, 1900-. j When the cards are received at the University Library, they will be stamped with the name of the sending library, and filed in the Union Catalog. If desired, any library may add its classification marks to the catalog cards. It is recommended that the deposit: include all the periodical sets (except documents) in the possession of the co-operating libraries. The Ohio Academy of Science has been working on such a proposition for several years, and much of preliminary data has been received. At the October, 1915, meeting of the Ohio Library Association, a committee was named to compile a Union Catalog of periodical sets, so that librarians might know where sets are when needed by them in the various universities and colleges. Therefore this joint effort of the two associatiors as outlined above, will bring into existence a bibliographical tool, the value of which will be indispensable to the college librarians and to the scientists of the Ohio Academy. You are urged to co-operate in this undertaking by sending to the Ohio State University Library, the card record of your periodical sets, excluding documents. The next step consisted in the preparation of a list of the libraries which would be invited to submit the record of their periodical sets. After correspondence, the following thirty-nine institutional libraries were selected: Adelbert College Library. Akron Municipal University Library. Antioch College Library. - Baldwin-Wallace College Library. Case Library (Cleveland). Case School of Applied Science Library. Cincinnati Public Library. Cincinnati University Library. Cleveland Public Library. Columbus Public Library. Dayton Public Library. Denison University Library. Hebrew Union Theological Seminary Library. Heidelberg University Library. Hiram College Library. Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Kenyon College Library. Lake Erie College Library. Lloyd Library (Cincinnati). Marietta College Library. Mechanics Library, Cincinnati. Miami University Library. Oberlin College Library. Ohio State Library. Ohio State University Library. Ohio University Library. Ohio Wesleyan University Library. Ohio Archaeological & Historical Society Library. Otterbein College Library. St. Ignatius College Library. St. John’s University Library.. St. Mary’s College Library. St. Xavier’s College Library. Toledo University College Library. Toledo Public Library. Western College for Women Library. Western Reserve University College for Women Library. Wilberforce University Library. Wittenberg College Library. Wooster College Library. Letters with enclosure of the statement of plans were sent out to these libraries on March 24 and 25, 1916. To date, favorable replies have been received from eighteen (18) as follows: Adelbert College Library. Akron Municipal University Library. Antioch College Library. Case School of Applied Science Library. Cincinnati Public Library. Cleveland Public Library. Hiram College Library. Lloyd Library (Cincinnati). Mechanics Library (Cincinnati). Miami University Library. Oberlin College Library. Ohio State Library. Ohio State University Library. Ohio University Library. Ohio Archaeological and Historical Society Library. Ohio Wesleyan University Library. Toledo Public Library. Wittenberg College Library. In two cases, the contributions have been sent in for the Union Catalog. Case School of Applied Science has printed a pamphlet giving the titles of sets and their completeness. Lloyd Library has issued as Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 21 Bibliographical Contribution, V. II, No. 1, ‘Catalogue of the Periodical Literature in the Lloyd Library,” 104 pp. Two copies of these printed records have been secured, the entries have been clipped and pasted on cards, ready for filing. It is not necessary to go into the detailed questions which are arising in connection with the preparation of these records in the various libraries. The points are numerous, but each is being given consid- eration so that this Union Catalog may approach, as far as possible, the acme of perfection. Some letters reveal conditions which must be very disheartening to both the librarians and to the users, many of whom are members of the Academy. “We do not have at present any separate list or catalogue of our periodical sets.”’ “A certain proportion of our periodical sets, just how large I cannot at present say, have never been classified or catalogued.”’ “Our periodicals have never been catalogued and we have only memorandum records at present.” The Committee recognizes that the request made upon the various libraries entails some work and perhaps some readjustment. If, how- ever, this request will cause some libraries to straighten out the condi- tions surrounding the periodical sets, to make catalogs, to classify, to purchase or fill in missing volumes, and in general to improve the records, then at least one tangible result, with some attendant good, has been accomplished, not only beneficial to the libraries, but also to the members of the Academy and other users. The Committee suggests that the members of the Academy, who come from institutions which have not yet signified their intention of joining this co-operative undertaking, should use their influence with the library authorities to prepare the data desired for the Union Catalog. Very truly yours, C. W. REEDER, For the Committee. Election of Officers.

(Signed), L. B. WALTON, Frank R. Exxiort, A. B. PLowMAN. The Report of the Committee on Necrology. The following report was presented by the Committee on Necrology: It becomes our painful duty, as Committee on Necrology, to report the death of two members of the Ohio Academy of Science. Professor F. M. Webster, of Washington, D. C., and Prof. John Royer, of Bradford, Ohio. Prof. Webster’s death came very unexpectedly. He came to Colum- bus during the holiday recess to attend the meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He arrived in the city on Monday and the Chairman of your Committee had the pleasure of meeting him at that time, and had quite a talk with him concerning old associations of the Academy. He expressed to me at that time, his regret that he was unable to attend the Quarter Centennial of the Acad- emy but was glad to be back in Columbus and see the old places he knew in early days. Prof. Webster was connected with the Bureau of Entomology, Washington, D. C. He died at Grant Hospital, Monday morning, January 3, 1916. He was taken ill on Wednesday evening preceding his death. After being stricken with his final illness, he felt sure of a speedy recovery, but as the days went by, he became worse and was taken to the hospital, where he passed away in a short time. Prof. Webster was one of the most prominent of American ento- mologists and his death will be mourned by scientists in all parts of the world. His home was in Kensington, Md., and his office was at the Department of Agriculture in Washington. Professor Webster was born at Lebanon, N. H., August 8, 1849. He received his degree of M. S. from the Ohio University in 1893. From 1882 to 1884 he was State Entomologist for Illinois. Following the termination of his position, he was connected with the Government Agricultural Station until 1904, when he was placed in charge of cereal and forage-crop insect investigation for the U. S. Department of Agri- culture. Professor Webster was one of the most prominent scientists in the Government service. He was sent to Melbourne, Australia, as special representative to the International Exposition held in that city in 1888-1891. He also was sent to Tasmania and New Zealand to study agricultural methods in these countries. At the time of his death he was President of the Biological Society of Washington. Professor Webster was very active in the affairs of the 24 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Academy in its early years and was elected as third President of the Academy in 1894; during all of the time of his connection with the Experiment Station at Wooster he was very active in Academy work, presenting many papers and taking an active interest in discussions. He was ex-President of the Association of Economic Entomology, ex-President of the Society of Entomology at Washington, D. C., ex-President of the National Geographical Society, ex-President of the American Association of Naturalists, and an honorary member of many other scientific associations and societies of the country. His contribu- tions to scientific publications, have been of special interest to scientists from all parts of the world; and in this way he made himself one of the most important men in the service of the government. Professor John Royer died at Bradford, Ohio, October 18, 1915. He was born January 31, 1845. Professor Royer was one of the early educators in Ohio, having spent more than forty years of his life as a teacher. He taught in the schools of Ansonia, Gettysburg, Versailles and Pleasant Hill, and was the first man to receive a certificate as a teacher in Darke County. Professor Royer was the publisher of many books. Royer’s Mental Arithmetic had a wide circulation, more than 120,000 of these books having been sold. He also published Royer’s Geography, which had quite a sale, as well as Royer’s Course in English. At one time Prof. Royer was editor of The School Visitor, which was published at Columbus and at Versailles, Ohio. He afterwards sold his interest in this publication to The Ohio Teachers Magazine, with which it was merged. Professor Royer spent the last ten years of his life in retirement. Wm. C. Mitts, Joun H.

Walton,G-. >: Wubbard Ay ws Cole Report of the Secretary The following report by the Secretary, read by the Acting Secretary, was received and ordered filed: CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 31, 1917. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The work of the Secretary for the past year has consisted mainly of routine work, largely in co-operation with the Executive and Program Committees. A brief report of the Twenty-sixth Annual Meeting, 1916, was published in ScrENcE, July 28; the full report appeared in the Ox1o JOURNAL OF SCIENCE for January. Notices of the present meeting have been sent to the leading dailies in Columbus, Cleveland, Cin- cinnati, and Toledo. The officers of the Academy were notified of their election; and the relevant portions of the report of the Committee on Resolutions were transmitted to all persons and organizations receiving recognition in that report. The Program Committee is to be congratulated on securing the services of Prof. Withrow for the Friday evening address. Prof. Withrow is giving this very timely address at serious personal incon- venience. His loyalty to the Academy and the spirit. of national patriotism by which he is actuated should receive the fullest recognition of the Academy. Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 41 The gratitude of the Academy is also due to Prof. Griggs for his kindness and telegraphic promptness in filling in the gap in the program caused by the illness and absence of the President. Two minor matters concerning the make-up of the program may well be mentioned here. Some members may be disappointed to find their papers scheduled for sectional meefings rather than general sessions; this has been necessitated by the presentation of an unusual number of titles of a general character. There have been presented, also, an unusually large number of titles unaccompanied by specifications as to time needed. This causes no inconsiderable complication in the arrangement of the program. A uniform allowance of ten minutes has been made in such cases; for the future the secretary would recommend the reduction of this allowance to five minutes. During the past year the Secretary has prepared a card catalog of the membership of the Academy, past and present, with record of dates of admission and withdrawal. Some inaccuracies (due largely to variation in spelling and to change of name on the part of the ladies) are still to be corrected; but the following summary is approximately correct, and may be of interest to the members: os ST oes RT ee ee res 455 es Mie TUIPCUS Jt) ene See fos « bal oe 5 22 ad Dos Sk yao) we OD ce A, ce Re oe oe ee De we ed See 720 The preparation of this catalog has made possible the record in the published membership list of the dates of admission to the Academy. The Secretary will be grateful for the correction of any errors which may have slipped into this record. Preliminary steps have been taken this year looking toward the establishment of sections for Psychology and Chemistry; and it is hoped that another year may see these sections organized. The secretary has also very recently received the suggestion of the desirability of a section for the medical (or near-medical) sciences—Anatomy, Physiology, and Pathology. The program of this meeting shows the justification for this suggestion. Some complications have arisen because of the Secretary’s temporary absence from the state, but it is confidently expected that the very efficient work of Prof. Krecker as chairman of the Local Committee and of Prof. Westgate as Acting Secretary for the meeting will prevent any loss to the Academy. Respectfully submitted, EpwWARD L. Rice, Secretary. Report of the Treasurer for the Year 1916-17 The report of the Treasurer was received as follows, and referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended. For the year since our last annual meeting, the receipts, including balance from last year, have amounted to $590.73, and the expenditures to $451.63, leaving a cash balance of $139.10. 42 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science RECEIPTS Balance froumlastayear. . ec aE Se ee) ee Porsale of publications es Sine! ee ete ee ee 22.60 Menipercisiondmes ten... {ten ero at ee cp ete ie ete 270.00 $990.73 EXPENSES Wiccellenieats expenses ts). ic. it akc atthe She amabvinee alee ae $ 48.88 180 subscriptions to the Ohio Journal of Science.............. 180.00 Publishing Annual Report of the 25th meeting................ 222-40 IS PMebaY saw Ay orw alc) 1! 0) iy Aer cnr we dees! roar iS e 139.10 $590.73 Respectfully submitted, JAS.

WALTON C. G. SHATZER. as Report of the Executive Committee The report of the Executive Committee was received as follows and ordered filed. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 2, 1917. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Executive Committee has held but one meeting during the year, on January 27. The officers of the Academy were invited to meet with the Committee. Profs. Hine, Walton and Rice, of the Com- mittee were present, together with Profs. Foerste, Osborn, Schaffner and Westgate by invitation. It was decided to hold the annual meeting on April 6 and 7, in Columbus. : The Program Committee was instructed to arrange an independent session of the Academy for Saturday morning, and to arrange for a joint meeting with the Ohio College Association for Friday evening only in case of agreement upon a distinctively scientific address. (When Prof. Withrow accepted the invitation to speak at the Friday evening meeting, an invitation was extended to the Ohio College Association to join with the Academy; but other arrangements had already been made.) Dr. Mendenhall was appointed to fill the vacancy in the Board of Trustees of the Research Fund caused by the death of Prof. Lazenby; and Prof. Fenneman was requested to serve as chairman of the Board. Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 43 Prof. Westgate was appointed as Acting Secretary to serve during the absence of the Secretary. The following communication from the Ohio State University Scientific Society was presented by the Secretary: Columbus, May 29, 1916. Professor E. L. Rice, Secretary Ohio Academy of Science, Ohio Wesleyan University, Delaware, Ohio: DEAR PROFESSOR RicE:—At the last meeting of the Ohio State ane Scientific Society it was unanimously voted that the Ohio Acade my of Science be requested to name ‘“‘a representative of each section of science represented in the Academy (Zoology, Botany, Geology, Physics), to serve on the Editorial Board of the Ohio Journal of Science,’’ such representatives (four in all) not to be members of the Ohio State University Scientific Society. Will you be so kind as to notify such officers of the Academy as should receive this announcement. Sincerely yours, R. J. Seymour, Secretary. Owing to the near approach of the annual meeting, no formal action was taken by the Committee, but the appointment of rep- resentatives was left to the Academy as a whole. In November, 1916, the Executive Committee decided by corre- spondence to join with other organizations in extending an invitation to the Central Association of Science and Mathematics Teachers to meet in Columbus next Thanksgiving. The following letter from the Pres- ident of that Asscciation should be presented to the Academy: or CoL_umBus, Me E. L. Rice, Secretary, The Ohio Academy of Science, Delaware, Ohio: My Dear Mr. RicE:—You will recall that your organization joined with a number of other organizations of the state in extending to the Central Association of Science and Mathematics Teachers an invitation to hold the next meeting in Columbus. The Central Association will meet in Columbus, November 30 and December 1, 1917. I take this means of suggesting to you that the Association will deeply appreciate any co-operation you may find it possible to give. There will be a general meeting on Friday morning to which all are invited and at which a Science address will be made in addition to a general educational address. On Friday afternoon the sectional meetings will be held. On Friday evening there will be a banquet followed by detailed reports of plans for science and mathematics work in ‘‘The High School of To-morrow.’’ On Saturday morning the general business meeting is held, followed by excursions to various places of interest in or near Columbus. i The Association invites you to be present and to take part in any and all ol these meetings.. The inspiration of this large body of teachers should ® “ of great benefit to every similar organization in the state. Let us make this = Science and Mathematics meeting ever held in Ohio. Plan now to be present at the November meeting: Yours very truly, MARIE GUGLE, President. This invitation has been acknowledged by the Secretary. A single application for membership has been approved by the Executive Committee, and will be presented later for the ratification of the Academy. Respectfully submitted, Epwarb L. RICE, Sec’y for Committee. 44 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Report of the Publication Committee The report of the Publication Committee was received as follows and ordered filed. The committee has published the Report of the Twenty-fifth Annual Meeting, consisting of 202 pages and also the Report of the Twenty-sixth Annual Meeting, consisting of 26 pages. The first report was published at a cost of $222.75, and the twenty-sixth, which was a partial reprint from the Ohio Journal of Science, at a cost of $42.00. The method of publication of the Proceedings of the Annual Meetings was not fully determined at the last meeting. The Executive Com- mittee having been given power to act on its own initiative. After correspondence with members of the Executive Committee it was thought best to publish the Annual Report as heretofore, the first twelve pages consisting of list of officers and members, being set up separately, and the Secretary’s Report reprinted from the Journal of Science. It was not thought necessary to reprint the President’s address, since this will now be published regularly in the Ohio Journal of Science. The committee recommends that the Proceedings of the Academy be handled in the regular way as heretofore, and that the Annual Report mainly a reprint from the Ohio Journal of Science, consisting of lists of officers and members, and the Secretary’s Report be continued. The committee strongly urges that the publication of special papers be continued also and that if possible at least one be published each year. Respectfully submitted, Joun H. SCHAFFNER, Chairman, L. B. WALTON. Report of the Emerson McMillin Research Fund The following report of the Trustees of the Research Fund was received and referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended.

Report of the Library Committee For the Library Committee, Mr. Reeder, of the Ohio State University Library, presented the following report, which was received and ordered filed. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Ohio State University Library begs to report that it has cared for all the accessions to the Library of the Academy, which have been received during the year 1916-17. The number of publications is not large, aggregating about one hundred (100) items. During the year the annual reports of the twenty-fifth and twenty- sixth meetings of the Academy, for 1915 and 1916, were published. Copies were mailed to all members whose names appeared’ in each report and to all exchanges. The sale of publications for the year has amounted to $22.60. This sum has been turned over to the Treasurer. The librarian desires to raise three questions on which he would like a vote of the Academy: 1. Is there any policy regarding the number of copies of a Special Paper which may be presented to the author? Request was made during the year, by an author, for copies of his publications. Under existing arrangements the only disposition is by sale,-after distribution has been made to the membership and to the exchanges. 2. Is there any policy regarding the reprinting of Special Papers, which are nearing exhaustion? Special Paper No. 15, ‘‘Trees of Ohio and Surrounding Territory,”’ by J. H. Schaffner, is almost gone, there being only seven copies in stock. A request for eighteen copies for use in a university had to be turned down. 3. Is the Academy ready to take a further step in the management of its library and turn its collection over to the Ohio State University for incorporation with the other sets and books on scientific subjects? In the original agreement between the Academy and the University, adopted November, 1914, it was stated in article 3, that “‘for the time being” the library of the Academy should be kept as a separate col- lection. - This has been done. In article 4, it was stated that ‘‘ulti- mately it is mutually agreed that the library of the Academy shall be classified with, and distributed in the University Library.” The question is: Is the Academy ready to take this step at this time? The University Library is ready. 46 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science As bearing on this proposition, the following statements are submitted: te) ; (a) The Ohio Journal of Science is receiving a subsidy from the University. In return for this annual grant, the University Library receives 250 copies of each issue for exchange purposes. At the present time, some 230 societies and periodicals are on the exchange list. Furthermore, the Biological Club has turned over to the University Library all the exchanges received by the Ohio Naturalist from 1900 to 1915. This material has been bound, catalogued and classified by the Library. (6) Some confusion exists between the two sets of exchanges, those received by the Academy and those received by the Library through the Ohio Journal of Science. If the proposed step is taken, the two sets of exchanges can be unified and duplication eliminated, both in sending and in receiving. (c) If the proposed step is taken, the duplicates found in the Academy’s collection can be used to secure other sets not now in the possession of either the University or the Academy, or they can be sent to other Ohio libraries as the Academy may decide. (d) The University Library has been purchasing from its book budget, many new sets and filling in the gap in existing sets. If the Academy’s collection is turned over, a number of its sets can be com- pleted through purchase, something the Academy cannot afford to do. Furthermore, there will be no chance for duplication or waste in money, when the complete sets are purchased by the University of which the Academy has a partial or incomplete file. (e) The University Library is unifying other exchanges received and distributed by the University, such as the Ohio History Teacher’s Bulletin, the Contributions from the Department of Zoology and Entomology, the Doctoral Dissertations, and the proposed series of studies to be issued by the Graduate School. If the Academy agrees to the proposition put forward, all readjustments can be made while the work is being done on these other series, and the entire question of exchanges can be settled. (f) The result of favorable action on the part of the Academy will be advantageous to both parties, because the members of the Academy will get improved library facilities through a better handling of its own sets and exchanges and the University Library will be in a_ better position to unify its collections, to plan its purchase of sets and of “fill ins”? and to develop systematically, its entire system of exchanges. Respectfully submitted, April 6, 1917. _-C. W. IeEEDER: Mr. Reeder was requested to make specific recommendations on the subjects treated in this report. This was done at the second business session. In accordance with the recom- mendations of Mr. Reeder, the following actions were voted by the Academy: Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 47 1. That fifty copies of each special publication of which copies are now on hand or which may be published in the future shall be given free to the author. (It is understood that any copies already given shall count on this number.) 2. That the library of the Ohio Academy of Science be turned over to the Ohio State University for incorporation in The Ohio State University General Library. 3. That a special card catalog be kept of the books thus received by the Ohio State University Library from the Academy. 4, That a suitable printed plate, to be paid for by the Academy, be put in the books given to the Ohio State Uni- versity Library. Report of the Committee on Legislation An oral report was presented by the chairman, Dr. Menden- hall. The report was received and the Committee continued. Report of the Committee on the Ohio Journal of Science No report was presented. The question at issue has prac- tically solved itself, and the general satisfaction with the present relations of the Academy and the Ohio Journal of _ Science renders further work by the committee unnecessary. Report of Committee on Catalog of Scientific Journals The following report was presented by Mr. Reeder, of the Ohio State University Library, for the Committee on Catalog of Scientific Journals. The report was received and ordered filed. The Committee on the Union List of Scientific Periodicals begs leave to submit the following report: Twenty-one Ohio libraries are now pledged to assist in the union catalog. Three additional libraries have agreed to join the movement during the past year—Cincinnati University, Kenyon College, and Otterbein College. Of these co-operating libraries, complete or partial deposits have been made by nine, namely: Case School of Applied Science. Kenyon College. Lloyd Library. Municipal University of Akron. Oberlin College. Ohio Archeological and Historical Society. Ohio State University Library. _ Otterbein College. Wittenberg College. 48 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science All cards so .far deposited, have been arranged in one alphabet, after each card has been marked to show the owner library. In order to ascertain the work done during the year by the co-operating libraries which had not made deposits, a request was sent to each one asking for a statement of progress. Following are excerpts from the replies received: Adelbert College of Western Reserve—Beginning in October, an assist- ant has given about half-time to the preparation of the records. The periodicals of the Reference Department and the 000 numbers of the Circulating Department are practically completed, making about 350 titles. Work is now proceeding on the 100’s. Antioch College—The librarian expects to get the records completed within a reasonable time. Cincinnati University—This library contains the exchange deposit of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Not much, if anything, can be done on the records until the work eases up a little. Cleveland Public Library—Cards for about 550 titles are ready. These are for such titles as happen to be catalogued or recatalogued, so nothing has been done along any special line. Hebrew Union College—No progress has been made in the preparation of the records. Miami University—The staff work has been interrupted by sickness and leaves of absence, so no progress whatever has been made. Ohio State Library—The larger part of the records of periodicals has been corrected and brought down to date, so the deposit is nearly ready for submission. Ohio University—Members of the staff have been away, so nothing has been done on the records. Ohio Wesleyan University—Owing to lack of sufficient staff to give it attention, not much progress has been made. However, the list of cards has been prepared for the bound volumes down to J. It is barely possible that a special worker can be put on these records and complete them in the near future. Toledo Public Library—Press of work has prevented progress on the records. Young Men’s Mercantile Library Association—Few of our magazine sets have ever been more than arranged on the shelves. Fifty-one sets have been shelf-listed and catalogued and cards for these will be forwarded within the near future. Thirty-four sets have been shelf- listed only and will be catalogued as time permits. No word was received from the Cincinnati Public Library and Hiram College. The Academy is aware that the College Section of the Ohio Library Association is co-operating in this work. A full and detailed report was made at its meeting on October, 1916. It was voted at that time to continue the compilation on the lines already laid down and rush the union list to completion as quickly as the time and r resources of each individual library permitted. Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 49 However, a phase has developed to the Ohio situation which needs thorough consideration. The university libraries of the middle west have projected a Union List which is to include Nebraska, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio and the metropolitan districts of St. Louis and Chicago. The plans for this list have been laid by the H. W. Wilson Co., the estimates of printing made and the copy from nearly all the libraries j is ready. Consideration is now being given to the time limit, so the publication may proceed. Here are some problems for Ohio: (1) Shall we ask for the inclusion of the Ohio Union list in the proposed “‘ North Central List?” (2) Is the Academy ready to finance the inclusion of its list, on the basis of what other co-operators will pay? (3) If the Academy does not finance the proposition, shall we ask each library to finance its own contribution to such a list, or buy its quota of volumes? (4) When the “North Central List”? is published, will there be need for an exclusive Ohio List? The committee recommends that, in spite of the complication of the situation, work be continued on the distinctively Ohio List and that the relation of the Ohio proposition to that of the universities of the Middle West be held in abeyance until many of the details of the larger union list are definitely settled. C. W. REEDER. April 6, 1917. The following actions were voted by the Academy: 1. That the recommendations contained in the report of the Committee on Catalog of Scientific Journals be adopted. 2. That the Committee on Catalog of Scientific Journals be discharged, and that the work formerly done by this com- mittee be transferred to the Library Committee. Election of Officers From the double slate of nominations prepared by the Nominating Committee, the following officers for 1917-18 were elected by the ballot of the Academy: President—Professor F. L.

Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 51 The Report of the Committee on Necrology The following report was presented by the Committee on Necrology : Not often does it fall to the Academy to record the loss of two leading members and past officers within one year. Within three days, Sept. 11 and Sept. 14, there occurred the deaths of Professor Charles Smith Prosser and Professor William Rane Lazenby. In many points their lives had run in similar ways; both born as farmer’s sons in central New York, both graduates of Cornell University, both of necessity in part working their way through, both retained for a number of years by the University as assistants in their respective fields, both subsequently called to Ohio State University as heads of their respective depart- ments, both loyal members of the Sigmi Xi, and both active iecaeh their entire scientific careers in painstaking research and conscientious teaching. Professor Lazenby was born in 1850 at Bellona, N. Y. He was graduated from Cornell University in 1874, at which time he won the Ezra Cornell prize in Agriculture. He was Instructor in Horticulture and Botany, ’74-’77 and Assistant Professor, ’77-81 at Cornell; Professor of Botany and Horticulture, ’81-’92, of Horticulture and Forestry, ’92-’08, and of Forestry at Ohio State University from that date to his death. He was founder and for five years director of the Ohio Experi- ment Station, an institution which has been a very important factor in the agricultural development of his adopted state. He was an active member of many scientific organizations, among which are: American Association for the Advancement of Science (twice Secretary and once Vice-President of Section I); Society Horticultural Science; American Pomological Society; American Forestry Society (Vice-President many years); Society for Promotion of Agricultural Science (Secretary five years and President two years) ; Ohio Academy of Science (founder and President, ’02); Ohio Forestry Society (President, ’04 to date of his death). His activity in these organizations grew out of a keen interest in them, their members and their ideals, an interest which expressed itself in wise counsel, frequent contributions to their programs, and discussions of the papers of others. Teaching was his main business during the college year, but his summers were always spent in travel and investigation; several were spent in Europe, studying her forests and forestry methods. His publications include many contributions both to Scientific Journals and State reports and to the semi-popular and popular press. In the words of a close friend at Cornell: ‘‘ While he found his great interest in life, the mastery and development of his special field in science, it was the human side of him that had the strongest hold on his friends and colleagues. He never lost his interest in the struggles By Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science of students with limited means, and in a quiet way extended aid to many of them. He never lost an opportunity for service to his friends or others in need; sympathy, helpfulness and loyalty were his characteristic qualities as a man and friend; and the loss to all of us who knew and loved him is irreparable.’”—J, H. Comstock, Science, December 29, 1916, p. 913. Hundreds of students now scattered to all parts of the country have sat at his feet, and can testify to the quiet, unassuming scholarship and sympathetic instruction to which they were there exposed. Many have attained to eminence in horticulture and forestry through the working out of the interest and enthusiasm he engendered. As a member of the Academy he was practically always at its meetings with an important contribution to make. His presentation was always interesting and plain. Continually alert for opportunities by which the Academy could serve the Commonwealth and Science, he became the channel through which we received our annual, financial aid for research from our loyal patron and life member, Mr. Emerson McMillin. He served on the trustee committee from 1901 to the time of his death and wisely discharged his duties. If any difficult problem arose in the affairs of the Academy he was not lacking in efficient counsel nor was it hastily or injudiciously given. Thus we shall miss his thoughtfulness and wisdom. Professor Prosser was born in 1860 at Columbus, New York. He was graduated from Cornell University in 1883, was a fellow one year and instructor to 1888; received his master’s degree in 1886 and returned twenty years later and took his doctor’s degree in 1907. One year before Union College gave him an honorary Doctorate of Science. He was professor of Natural History at Washburn, Kansas, ’92-’94, of Geology at Union, ’94-’99, Associate Professor of Historical Geology, *99-’01 at Ohio State University and Professor and Head of the Depart- ment from then to the date of his death. For four years after leaving Cornell University he was Assistant Paleontologist on the U. S. Geologic Survey, Assistant Geologist ’92-’95 and ’00-’16. He was a member of the N. Y. Geological Survey, ’95-’99; Kansas Geological Survey, 96, Chief Appalachain Division, Maryland Geological Survey, 98-01; Assistant Geologist, Ohio Geological Survey, ’00-’16. He was a member of the leading Geological and Scientific Societies of America and of some foreign organizations, among which are’ the following: International Congress of Geologists, London, 1888; International Geographic Congress, New York, 1904; Fellow American Association Advancement Science (Vice- President, Section E, at the time of his death); Society of Naturalists; Society of Vertebrate Paleontologists; Geological Society of America; Paleontological Society of America; National Geographic Society; Geologische Verein; Washington, D. C., Kansas and Ohio Academies of Science. Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 52 While teaching was the chief business of Dr. Prosser during prac- tically his whole public life, his vacations and all spare time during the school year were devoted to research. He loved it and was willing to sacrifice much to attain his goals in his scientific career. His contributions were always marked by most painstaking and precise accuracy in the fields they covered and thus left little for anyone else to do when he had finished. Among his publications are extensive papers and reports on the geology and paleontology of New York, Maryland, Kansas, and Ohio. They are largely stratigraphic and paleontologic, and are particularly strong in the correlations which they set forth. The State Geologist of New York, with whom Professor Prosser had long been associated, gives a beautiful estimate of him in the following words: “There never was a more loyal, a more devoted, a more sensitive spirit. His attitude of mind was puritanic in its simplicity and in its practices, and, left to himself he could never suspect another of indirect- ness or duplicity—a quality of which he contained not a grain. Whencon- fronted by the broader bearings of his science and the natural sequences of its greater propositions, he held himself somewhat carefully aloof. Yet this simplicity of heart which would not let him go far afield, also made him extraordinarily conscientious in his scientific work. It would not be fair to him to say that he had a genius for details, but it would be eminently right to assert that he sought intimately and faithfully for the exact construction of every observation he made so far as that had to do with the theme in hand. This mental method led him to a precision of manner and gave him a certain formality which was seldom dismissed under the most informal circumstances. ’’— J. M. Clarke, Science, October 20, 1916, p. 559. Many men and women have gone out from under his training, in Kansas, New York, and Ohio, who can trace their geological ideals and beginnings to him. Some have attained to eminence in geologic and © paleontologic research or in teaching and uphold the high standards to which he was devoted. (Signed) Gro. D. Hussparp, Chairman, HERBERT OSBORN. Report of the Committee on Resolutions The following report was presented by the Committee on Resolutions, and adopted by the Academy. 1. The Academy wishes again to express its gratitude for the continued generosity of Mr. Emerson McMillin, and to put on record its appreciation of the value of his gifts to the Research Fund in the stimulation and extension of research on the part of the membership of the Academy. 2. The Academy desires to express sympathy for Professor F. O. Grover, whose illness, brought on by overwork, has prevented him from 54 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science attending and presiding as president at this meeting. It is to be hoped that he may offer for publication the address he had expected to give. 3. Professor Robert F. Griggs is entitled to the thanks of the Academy for his very interesting illustrated lecture on his recent “Explorations of Mount Katmai, Alaska.”’ 4. The thanks of the Academy are given to Professor James R. Withrow for his timely and valuable lecture on ‘‘The Relation of War to Chemistry in America.”’ 5. The Academy thanks the Local Committee and the Professors and Officers of the Ohio State University for providing convenient rooms for the general and sectional meetings and for their efforts in ministering to the comfort of all members in attendance. 6. The Secretary of the Academy, Professor E. L. Rice, deserves much credit for making detailed arrangements for this successful meet ing, although other duties have necessitated his.absence from the State. Ez LL. Mosktey, L. B. WALTON, C.. Gi SHATZER? Committee. Section for Physiology, Anatomy, Bacteriology and Pathology A petition, signed by sixteen members, was presented, requesting the Academy to establish a new section for Phy- siology, Anatomy, Bacteriology, and Pathology—the exact name of the section to be determined later. The petition was granted; and a vice-president and rep- resentative upon the. Editorial Board of the Ohio Journal of Science were elected for the new section. Constitution and By-Laws The Acting President was instructed to appoint a committee of three to codify the Constitution and By-Laws. This committee was requested to consider the desirability of lengthening the terms of office of the president and secretary. (This action to be interpreted as notice of amendment, so that definite action may be taken at the next meeting.) The Acting President appointed the following committee: secretary E. L. Rice, ex-officio; F. C. Blake, Frank Carney. The Academy directed the Executive Committee to print a new edition of the Constitution and By-Laws.

MINUTES OF BUSINESS MEETINGS The first business session was called to order by President Landacre at 10:30 A. M., on Thursday, May 30. An adjourned session was held at 2:00 P. M. on the following day. The appointment of the following committees for the meeting was announced by the chair: Committee on Membershipbp—R. C. Osburn, F. C. Blake, R. J. Seymour. Committee on Resolutions—M. M. Metcalf. Committee on Necrology—A. M. Bleile. The following Auditing Committee was elected by the Academy: F. C. Blake, E. N. Transeau. The following Nominating Committee was elected by the ballot of the Academy: T. C. Mendenhall, L. G. Westgate, F. L. Landacre. Report of the Secretary The following report by the Secretary was received and ordered filed: DELAWARE, OnI0, May 29, 1918. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The work of the Secretary has consisted largely in the usual routine correspondence and in the carrying out of the directions of the Executive Committee, as noted in the report of that committee. The report of the Twenty-seventh Annual Meeting was prepaked rather unusually promptly and forwarded to Science. Its fate is shown by the following quotation from a letter by Professor Cattell, Editor of Science, under date of August 30: Twenty-eighth Annual Meeting 73 “Owing to a necessary reduction in the size of the journal, it has been very much overcrowded this year and it has seemed impossible to find space for the report. I hope that the reduction in the size of Science is only temporary and that you will be so kind as to send me the report of next year’s meeting.” The report will be prepared in case its publication is assured. Notices of the Twenty-eighth Annual Meeting have been sent to the leading Columbus dailies with a request for publicity; but it has seemed hardly worth while to send such notices to Cleveland, Cin- cinnati and Toledo papers, as in the past. If the Academy so desires, notices will next year be sent to the larger list of papers. A number of officers and committee members have this year been prevented from carrying out their work for the Academy. Professor Lamb has been compelled by ill health to give up the Vice-presidency for Geology, and Professor Westgate has been acting in his place. Professor Carney’s new duties have taken him away from the State so much of the time that it has been impossible for him to serve with either the Executive Committee or the Committee on Codification of the Constitution. The Secretary has also received word from Professor Waite of his appointment as Captain in the Surgeon General’s office and his inability to take any active part in the work of the Editorial Board of the Ohio Journal of Science. And at the last moment a letter from Professor Samuel R. Williams announces that he will be prevented from attending the meeting because of serious illness in his household; Professor Moore will be present to serve in his stead. The members of the Academy may be interested in two rather conspicuous, but perhaps unconscious, changes in policy regarding the meeting place. During the decade, 1891-1900, all but two meetings were held in Columbus; during the next decade only three meetings were held in Columbus; since 1900 seven of the eight meetings (including the present session) have been held in Columbus. Since 1913 no invitation has been received except the cordial and generous standing invitation from the State University. There can hardly be a question that Columbus is the most generally convenient and desirable place for the meetings of the Academy. On the other hand, it may be worth careful consideration whether an occasional meeting in some other city does not aid in stimulating interest in the Academy throughout the State. Finally the Secretary wishes to raise another question of policy. Is it not time for the Academy to establish a permanent headquarters in Columbus, to which all Academy mail may go, and from which all Academy business may be transacted? If the time is not ripe for this action, the Secretary would recommend, at least, that the new secretary be elected from Columbus, to facilitate closer co-operation with the Treasurer and with Mr. Reeder of the Library. Partly for this reason, and partly for personal reasons, the present secretary would request the Nominating Committee to omit his name from the list of nomina- tions to be presented at the second business session of this meeting. Respectfully submitted, Epwarbp L. Rice, Secretary. 74 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science The recommendations of the Secretary relative to place of meeting and establishment of a permanent Academy head- quarters were referred to a special committee for consideration and report to the Academy. The committee reported as follows: 1. With reference to the place of meeting, the committee is of the opinion that the present practice of the Academy, of meeting as a general thing in Columbus, but leaving the way open to meet at other places in the State when occasion offers, should be continued. 2. With reference to the establishment of a permanent headquarters for the Academy at Columbus, from which all Academy business may be transacted, the committee has no recommendation to offer. Respectfully submitted, STEPHEN R. WILLIAMS, L. G. WESTGATE, C. G. SHATZER. Report of the Treasurer for the Year 1917-18 The report of the Treasurer was received as follows, and referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended. For the year since our last annual meeting, the receipts including balance from last year, have amounted to $474.20, and the expenditures to $272.85, leaving a cash balance of $201.35.

Brake. sJ or Twenty-eighth Annual Meeting Report of the Executive Committee The report of the Executive Committee was received as follows and ordered filed. DELAWARE, Onto, May 27, 1918. To the Ohio Academy of Science: A single meeting of the Executive Committee has been held since the last Annual Meeting—on December 8, 1917. Professors Landacre, Hine, Shatzer and Rice were in attendance. Following the custom of the last few years, all officers and chairmen of standing committees were invited to meet with the Executive Committee, Vice-Presidents Detmers and Seymour responded to this invitation. The place and date of the Annual Meeting were determined; and the Program Committee was requested to arrange, if possible, for field trips on Saturday, June 1, and to give an increased prominence to the item of demonstrations in the program for the meeting. Both suggestions have borne fruit. It is now left for the Academy to prove the fruit in the eating. There was some discussion of the propriety of the Academy paying the travelling expenses of the members of the Executive Committee in attending meetings and the clerical, printing and postage bills incurred by members of the Program Committee in arranging the program. The Executive Committee was not ready to make any formal recom- mendation in this matter. The Secretary was authorized to have a set of the Annual Reports of the Academy bound for the use of present and future secretaries. (Steps have been taken by the Secretary, in conference with Mr. Reeder, to carry out this action.) The Secretary was instructed to take up with Mr. Reeder the matter of exchanges with the Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, Mass., and to secure, if practicable, the placing of a complete set of the Proceedings in the Library of the Laboratory. (Consultation with Mr. Reeder showed that the Academy had expressed its willingness to supply the Laboratory with lacking numbers of the Academy pub- lications, but that no reply had been received). The Secretary was also instructed to renew correspondence looking toward the establishment of a Section for Psychology in the Academy. (A questionnaire concerning the desirability of this section was mailed to a number of the leading psychologists of the State; the consensus of opinion was strongly in favor of the establishment of the section, but equally strongly against attempting this action at this time, when the psychologists are so generally in national service). In view of the action of the last Annual Meeting, looking toward amendment, the Executive Committee has postponed the re-printing of the Constitution and By-Laws ordered by the Academy. The question was raised by several members of the Academy whether war conditions made it desirable to omit this year’s Annual Meeting. This question was carefully considered by the Executive Committee by correspondence. The practically unanimous decision was that the demand of patriotism was for holding the meeting rather than for omitting it, even if the attendance might be materially decreased. 76 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science An invitation was received by the Ohio Academy to send a delegate to the Semi-Centennial Anniversary of the Kansas Academy of Science, celebrated on March 15 and 16. After consultation by mail, the Execu- tive Committee directed the Secretary to communicate our congratula- tions to the Kansas Academy and to request Professor G. E. Coghill, of the University of Kansas, a member of the Ohio Academy from 1907 to 1915, to act as our representative. (This was done by night letters, under date of March 13). Respectfully submitted, Epwarp L. RICE, Secretary for the Committee. Report of the Publication Committee No report of the Publication Committee was presented. Report of the Trustees of the Emerson McMillin Research Fund. The following report of the Trustees of the Research Fund was received and referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended.

The McMillin Research Fund of the Ohio Academy of Science has been maintained through the generosity of Emerson McMillin and grants from this fund are made upon application to the Trustees of the fund. Applications for grants should include a statement of the subject to be investigated, the nature of the expenses to be covered and in so far as practicable a list of the proposed items of expense in such manner that the Trustees may determine the expenses and the allowance needed. In rendering accounts it is desirable that an itemized statement be submitted, showing the cost of apparatus or supplies used, or, in case of traveling expenses, the localities visited, amounts of railroad fare, hotel and other expenses as incurred. Payments granted from this fund will, as a rule, be made only after the expenses have been incurred and upon receipt of detailed statement. Original vouchers should be furnished when possible. Apparatus, books, maps or material supplies not consumed during the investigation, which may be secured with grants from this fund are to be the property of the Academy and after the investigation is completed should be accounted for to the Trustees or deposited with such officer of the Academy as the Trustees may direct. It is expected that the results of such investigations will be pub- lished and if other means of publication are not available, the Trustees will try to assist in securing suitable publication. T. C. MENDENHALL, Chairman. The Trustees further reported to the Academy a proposal to invest five hundred dollars of the Research Fund in Liberty Bonds, subject to the approval of Mr. McMillin. The Academy voted its hearty endorsement of this proposal. Report of the Library Committee For the Library Committee, Mr. Reeder, of the Ohio State University Library, presented the following report, which was received and ordered filed. May 30, 1918. To the Ohio Academy of Science: At the last meeting of the Academy, it was voted to turn over to the University Library for incorporation in its collection, the materials received through exchanges by the Academy. In accordance with this action, the work of the year has been the unifying of these files. A 78 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science sheet record has been made of the collections of the Academy as they stood at the time of transfer. As opportunity presented, the University Library has taken these sets and checked them. If needed in the Library, these sets, or individual items, have been added; if not needed, the material has been added to the duplicate collections for exchange purposes. In case any binding ‘has been done, the volumes have been marked with the special book-plate which the Academy authorized at its last meeting. If it had not been for the absence of the Librarian on war work, this process of incorporation would have been completed by this date, but a portion of it will have to go over into this coming year. In connection with the general policy of increasing exchanges, the University Library has been able to add new names to the list of the Academy. The combination of the Ohio Journal of Science, the Bulletins of the Ohio Biological Survey and the Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science makes a series of sets that command attention and of sufficient value to give a good basis for arranging terms of exchange. During the year several libraries and societies have completed their sets of the Special Papers and Annual Reports of the Academy on an exchange basis. The only publication issued by the Academy during the year was the Annual Report of the Twenty-seventh Meeting, April 6 and 7, 1917. This report was mailed to the membership list as printed in that report and to all exchanges on the list. The sale of publications during the year amounted to $24.35. This sum has been turned over to the Treasurer. In accordance with the recommendation of the Executive Com- mittee, a complete set of Annual Reports Nos. 1-25, have been bound for use of the Secretary. At the last meeting of the Academy the Committee on Catalog of Scientific Journals was discharged and the work turned over to the Library Committee. This proposition stands today about in the same situation as at the time of the last report, with two exceptions: (1) Oberlin College has added about 3,000 cards to the Catalog during the year; and (2) the Catalog itself has been placed in order and now: occupies ten (10) trays in the catalog in the University Library. C. W. REEDER. Report of the Committee on Legislation The following report of the Committee on Legislation, presented by the chairman, Dr. Mendenhall, was received and ordered filed. In presenting what may be considered as a preliminary report or what may be considered as a report of progress your committee regrets to say that circumstances have made it impracticable to meet for’ thorough discussion of the questions that might arise and that therefore the suggestions offered must be considered as tentative and that sug- gestions or instructions along any of the lines mentioned will be Twenty-eighth Annual Meeting 79 welcomed. Since there is not likely to be another meeting of the Academy before the next Assembly meets, some direction or indication of the wishes of the Academy will be of special value. There has been no session of the Assembly since our last meeting and therefore no presentation of our wishes has been possible. It appears to the committee that desired legislation may be sought along two lines; first, to provide funds for the Academy to undertake definite researches along special lines and to provide a fund for the publication of the proceedings of the society; second, to secure such legislation as may connect the Academy in an advisory capacity with the State in regard to matters of scientific importance requiring technical scientific information, and which the membership of the Academy is qualified to give. For the first purpose it seems that the most probable fund might be one providing for publication either directly by state printing, with perhaps, a limitation of say 500 pages per year or a direct appropria- tion, to be expended by the Society for publication purposes. Such a request might be the first to urge, and then a request for the appropria- tion of a research fund, to be expended under the direction of the Trustees of the Research Fund of the Academy in such an amount as might be deemed essential for the investigations proposed. For the second general purpose, there would seem to be necessary an act creating an advisory committee within the Academy, with power to form sub-committees for specific problems, especially with reference to needed legislation along lines within the scope of the Academy. Such, for example, as legislation concerning conservation and utilization of natural resources of the state, the protection of forests, the develop- ment of fisheries, game and other natural resources, the best develop- ment and utilization of which are matters of scientific knowledge and which are in considerable degree now the subject of controversy by special interests, rather than the objects of care by intelligent agencies interested in their widest service and perpetuation. Unless it is possible to have a careful discussion of these questions and to give certain fairly definite instructions, it would seem necessary in order to make any progress within the next year that the committee, or a new committee formed for the purpose, be given considerable discretion in the matter of character and extent of the legislation sought. While there is perhaps less hope at present on account of the urgency of other matters, it would seem that the importance of these measures for the Academy merit as prompt action as possible and it will be well certainly to have our needs formulated in such definite shape that we may be prepared to act as promptly as circumstances will permit. T. C. MENDENHALL, Chairman, HERBERT OSBORN. Owing to the request of Dr. Mendenhall to be excused from the chairmanship of the committee and to Prof. Waite’s temporary absence on war work, it was voted that the present 80 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science committee be discharged and that a new committee of five be appointed. The President appointed the following: Herbert Osborn, Chairman; T. C. Mendenhall, M. M. Metcalf, E. L. Rice, L. B. Walton. Report of the Committee on Codification of the Constitution The following report of the Committee on Codification of the Constitution, presented by Prof. Blake, was discussed at some length in both business sessions and finally laid upon the table by vote of the Academy. May 30, 1918. To the Ohio Academy of Science: Two matters were referred to this committee—the codification of the Constitution and By-Laws and the question of lengthening the term of office of the President and Secretary. The term of office of the Treasurer was not specifically mentioned, but should be logically included with the others. One member of the committee, Professor Carney, has been out of the State so much of the time that he has been practically unavailable; the remaining members, neither of whom was able to attend the last annual meeting, are somewhat in doubt concerning the intention of the Academy as to ‘‘codification,’’ and are in decided disagreement concerning the question of the term of office. Interpreting ‘‘codification” in the narrow sense, and not as the equivalent of general revision, the committee begs to report that the Secretary has a record of all amendments which have been passed, and that the preparation of the Constitution and By-Laws for the press will be a simple clerical matter when the Executive Committee is ready to proceed with the printing. Considering the term of office of President, Secretary and Treasurer, the committee, while unable to present a definite recommendation, offers the following suggestions: 1. Term of Office of President—One member of the committee favors the lengthening of the term to three years, for the following reasons: The Ohio Academy bears the same relation to the State Government that the National Academy of Science does to the Federal Government. For the period of the war and especially for the recon- struction period after the war it would seem that longer terms of office than at present would give the opportunity for some real constructive work of immense and permanent value. The other member feels that it is wiser to retain the present one year term, particularly in view of the fact that the President is expected to present the annual address. The change to the longer term would necessitate the preparation of three consecutive addresses by the same man would leave the Academy without a presidential address in two out of every three years. A third alternative would be the abolition of the address—a result equally objectionable with the others. . Twenty-eighth Annual Meeting 81 2. Term of Office of Secretary—lIt is agreed by the committee that the office of the secretary should be somewhat permanent; and one member of the committee would secure this result through lengthening the term to five years. In favor of this view, he further suggests that the office of secretary should be the most permanent of any of the offices. If the presidency had a three year period and the secretaryship a five year period, it would seldom occur that both incumbents would com- plete their terms simultaneously. The important thing of the whole matter is continuity of constructive policy. The other member of the committee, (owing to the constitution of the committee, it is fair to Professor Blake to add that this member is the present secretary), believes that the desired permanency can be secured by indefinite re-election, while the Academy may more easily and more speedily eliminate an undesirable official. 3. Term of Office of Treasurer—The arguments pro and con are essentially as in the case of the secretaryship. Respectfully submitted, EDWARD L. RICE, FREDERICK C. BLAKE, Committee. Election of Officers From the double slate of nominations prepared by the Nominating Committee, the following officers for 1918-19 were elected by the ballot of the Academy. President—Professor M. M.

The Report of the Committee on Necrology The following report was presented by the Committee on Necrology. . Twenty-eighth Annual Meeting 83 ADOLPH FEIEL. Born in Wurtemberg in June, 18386; died in Columbus, February 22, 1917. He received a common school education at home and came to the United States when eighteen years old. From 1876 to 1879 he was a student in Starling Medical College, completing the regular course in medicine—then three years—but refused to apply for a degree, stating in his modest way that he did not feel himself worthy of the honor. He was appointed assistant and later given charge of the course in Histology in Starling Medical College. In 1895 he came to the Ohio State University as instructor in Histology, which position he held until shortly before his death. He was remarkably proficient in histological technique. His interpretation of a microscopic preparation was exceeded by no one I ever knew. His study and knowledge of the protozoa was extensive. - His induction into science was interesting. A guest at a hotel where Mr. Feiel was them employed left behind a popular book on science. In it was an illustrated description of the human skin. With char- acteristic conservation, our friend doubted that so much detail was present in such an apparently simple object. His savings went toward the purchase of a microscope, and then came a realization of the diffi- culties that beset the investigator. He entered Starling College mainly for the purpose of obtaining section of the human skin and while this was the beginning his scientific spirit led him on and on in the pursuit of knowledge in his chosen field. He was a man of sterling integrity and of honest ideals. He was joint author of two papers published in the transactions of the American Microscopial Society dealing with ‘“‘The Trophic Effects upon the Heart after Section of the Vagi.”’ A. M. BLEILE. Resolutions The following resolutions were presented by the Committee on Resolutions and adopted by the Academy. 1. The Academy wishes to express its grateful appreciation of the hospitality of the Ohio State University in connection with its meeting. 2. The Academy wishes again to express to Mr. Emerson McMillin its sense of the great service he is rendering in his generous gifts to the Research Fund, and its gratitude to him for his support of this, the vital part of our work. M. M. MetTcatFr, Com. The following additional resolution was adopted by the Academy on motion of Professor Walton. The Ohio Academy of Science places itself on record as deprecating the suppression of the study of the German language in the curricula of some of our colleges. 84 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science The study of German should be continued not only by reason of its direct utility to our troops abroad, but also because it is funda- mentally necessary to science and productive scholarship. It is not the language, but Prussian ideas, which are antagonistic to the Allied nations; and any action which prevents the efficient development of scholarship and science, and of the industries dependent upon them, will prove advantageous to our enemies. Proposed Restriction of Membership of Academy A proposition was presented to the Academy by Dr. T. C. Mendenhall, looking to a restriction of membership to those engaged in professional and productive scientific work. Thus membership might be ‘‘made of greater importance by being made more difficult,’’ and the Ohio Academy might realize more fully the ‘influence throughout the State that such a body should have.’’ The Academy voted a general approval of the suggestion, together with its reference to a committee to be appointed by the President. This action and the report of the committee (to be included in the preliminary announcement of the next Annual Meeting) are to be interpreted as notice of a proposed amendment of the Constitution. The matter was referred by the President to the Executive Committee. Miscellaneous Business Voted that the Treasurer be authorized to pay the bill for binding a file-of the Annual Reports, prepared by the Library Committee for the use of the Secretary. Voted that the Secretary be authorized to draw upon the Treasurer for the payment of clerical assistance, not to exceed fifty dollars per year. Adjournment The meeting adjourned without determining the place of the next meeting.

The Twenty-ninth Annual Meeting of the Ohio Academy of Science was held at Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, May 29 to 31, 1919, under the presidency of Professor Maynard M. Metcalf. Seventy-nine members were registered as in attendance; forty new members were elected. On invitation of the Academy, a meeting of the psychologists of the State was held in connection with the Academy meeting, for the presentation of papers and the consideration of the forma- tion of a Section for Psychology in the Academy. The organiza- tion of the section was accomplished, and the titles of papers presented are included in the program of the meeting of the Academy. At the close of the formal session, the geologists, under the leadership of Professors J. E. Hyde and T. M. Hills, made an excursion to Newark for the study of glacial physiography and the Upper Waverly formation, while Professor W. M. Barrows conducted a zoological and botanical excursion to Sugar Grove IOI 102 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science GENERAL PROGRAM Tuurspay, May 29. 2:00 Pp. mM. Business Meeting. 3:30 Pp. M.

MINUTES OF BUSINESS MEETINGS The first business session was called to order by President Metcalf at 2:00 P. M., on Thursday, May 29. An adjourned session was held at 2:00 P. M. on the following day. The appointment of the following committees for the meeting was announced by the chair: Committee on Membership—F. C. Blake, G. D. Hubbard, L. B. Walton. Committee on Resolutions—T. C. Mendenhall, C. G. Shatzer, KE. L. Fullmer. Committee on Necrology—C. E. O’Neal, E. L. Rice. The following Auditing Committee was elected by the Academy: J. H. Schaffner, R. C. Osburn. The following Nominating Committee was elected by the ballot of the Academy; F. L. Landacre, G. F. Lamb, T. C. Mendenhall. Twenty-ninth Annual Meeting 103 Report of the Secretary The following report by the Secretary was received and ordered filed: ; DELAWARE, Onto, May 26, 1919. To the Ohio Academy of Science: In addition to the work done in conjunction with the Executive Committee (covered in the report of that Committee) and with the Program Committee, the Secretary has conducted the usual routine work of his office. A brief report of the Twenty-eighth Annual Meeting was prepared for ‘‘Science,’? and appeared in the number for September 13. The complete report has appeared in the April number of the Ohio Journal of Science and in the Proceedings of the Academy. Announcement of the current meeting was sent to the Ohio State Journal, Columbus Dispatch, and Columbus Citizen. In connection with the filling out of a questionnaire from another Academy, it became necessary for the Secretary to compile data as to the distribution of our membership in the various sciences. The figures, although only an approximation, are not without significance and may be of interest to the Academy. Probably some members who are classed under Zoology and Botany belong rather in the group of Medical Sciences, not having revised their classification since the foundation of the section of Medical Sciences. The figures are as follows: Zoology, 79; Botany, 66; Geology, 40; Physics, 29; Medical Sciences, 16; Chemistry, 6; Mathematics, 4; Unclassified, 18. The Secretary has commenced to collect data for a permanent record of the war activities of the Academy membership. The returns are too incomplete to justify a report at this time. If the undertaking is approved, it is desirable that a special committee be appointed for its completion and that the Academy authorize the publication of the completed roll. Two years ago the Academy authorized the reprinting of the Con- stitution and By-Laws and appointed a committee for this purpose. Owing to an unusual number of pending amendments the committee took no action. Does the Academy wish a reprinting in connection with the report of this meeting? Or is it desirable to wait until 1920 (Thirtieth Annual Meeting) and then reprint regularly at five year periods? The last printing of the Constitution was in 1913; about a dozen amendments have been enacted since that date. The circular of information is now out of print. Does the Academy desire to have it revised and reprinted? If so, are there any suggestions as to changes in form or content? Respectfully submitted, Epwarp L. Rice, Secretary. 104 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Report of the Treasurer for the Year 1918-19 The report of the Treasurer was received as follows, and referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended. For the year since our last annual meeting, the receipts, including ~ balance from last year, have amounted to $481.85, and the expenditures to $357.70, leaving a cash balance of $124.15. RECEIPTS.

Report of the Executive Committee The report of the Executive Committee was received as follows and ordered filed. May 29, 1919. To the Ohio Academy of Science: A meeting of the Executive Committee was held in Columbus, December 7, 1918, with all members in attendance. A second meeting was held this morning, with the following members present: Metcalf, Osburn, Walton and Rice. Aside from these meetings a considerable amount of business has been transacted through correspondence. After careful consideration of the proposal to restrict the member- ship of the Academy to those engaged in productive scientific work, presented by Dr. Mendenhall at the last Annual Meeting and referred to the Executive Committee, the Committee makes the following recommendations: (1) That a class, to be known as Fellows, be created from the members who are doing productive scientific work; (2) that Twenty-ninth Annual Meeting 105 the selection of Fellows be made by the Executive Committee and the Vice-Presidents of the various sections; (3) that eligibility to office be limited to Fellows. It is hoped in this way to secure the objects of Dr. Mendenhall’s proposition without sacrificing the present popular and democratic character of the Academy. A straw vote of members not expecting to attend the present meeting shows 27 in favor of the change, | against it and 14 neutral orin doubt. The substance of these recommendations will be presented in the form of amendments of the Constitution for action later in the meeting. An invitation to hold the Annual Meeting for 1919 in London was was received last year from Mrs. Katharine Dooris Sharp, seconded by the local Board of Trade. After a somewhat extended correspondence it was decided that it would be difficult, if not impossible, to secure the needful hotel and meeting accommodations in London, and the matter was dropped by mutual consent. Correspondence was also conducted through the Secretary relative to the possibility of a joint meeting with the Indiana Academy; but this project was given up, at least for the present year, largely because of the fact that the spring meeting of the Indiana Academy is wholly a field meeting. It seemed unwise to omit the only opportunity of the year for the reading of papers in the Ohio Academy. As noted in the preliminary announcement of this meeting, the Indiana Academy extended a very cordial invitation to the members of the Ohio Academy to join them in their field meeting of last week. The ultimate decision concerning time and place of the meeting is already known to the Academy. The Executive Committee directed the Secretary to renew cor- respondence with the psychologists of the state with a view to the establishment of a Section of Psychology. A partial result of this correspondence is seen in the psychological titles listed in the program of the meeting; it is hoped that a further result will be seen tomorrow morning in the organization of the Section of Psychology. The resignation of Prof. Samuel R. Williams from the Vice-Pres- idency for Physics, because of sabbatical leave and prospective absence from the state, was presented to the Executive Committee, and Prof. S. J. M. Allen was appointed to fill the vacancy. Twelve members have been elected by the Executive Committee since the last annual meeting. The names will be presented later for ratification by the Academy. The Executive Committee unites in recommending two changes in the financial plan of the Academy—the amendment of the By-Laws to increase the annual dues from $1.50 to $2.00, and the authorization by the Academy of the payment of traveling expenses of officers and committee members attending regularly authorized committee meetings not held in connection with the Annual Meeting of the Academy. The Committee also unites in recommending the rescinding of the By-Law requiring the Nominating Committee to present a double slate of nominations for officers. 106 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science At the meeting held this morning the President of the Academy presented correspondence with Professor J. McKean Cattell relative to an affiliation of the Ohio Academy with the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the affiliation to permit the rep- resentation of the Academy on the Council and Sectional Committees of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, but to commit the Academy to no financial obligations. The Executive Committee recommends that the Academy approve the general plan of affiliation and refer the matter with power to the Executive Committee for 1919-20. Respectfully submitted, Epwarp L. RICcE, Secretary, for the Committee. Report of the Publication Committee The following report of the Publication Committee was received and ordered filed. May 29, 1919. The Chairman of the Publication Committee reports the publication of the “Proceedings” mailed to members of the Academy several weeks prior to the date of the present meeting. L. B. WALTON. Report of the Trustees of the Emerson McMillin Research Fund The following report of the Trustees of the Research Fund was received and ordered filed. The financial portion of the report was referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended.

Regarding the grant of $100.00 to Professor Bucher, it may be desirable to explain that it was made for the purpose of relabelling a valuable and extensive collection of Naiades made by the late George W. Harper, of Cincinnati, and by him donated to the University of Cincinnati. All had been carefully labelled as to locality, but the labels were old, faded and many of them loose, so that there was great danger of their being hopelessly disarranged and permanently lost. The grant of a portion of the research fund to secure the preservation of the collection is something of a departure from the usual practice, but the object to be attained seemed to justify it. It was agreed on the part of the Cincinnati authorities that. the collection should forever be available for study by any member of the Academy whose qualifica- tions for such work were properly attested by its officers. T. C. MENDENHALL, Chairman, HERBERT OSBORN. May 30, 1919. The financial portion of the report of the Trustees of the Research Fund has been audited and found correct. RAYMOND C. OSBURN, Joun H. SCHAFFNER, Auditing Committee. Report of the Library Committee For the Library Committee, Mr. Reeder, of the Ohio State University Library, presented the following report, which was received and ordered filed. May 29, 1919. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Library Committee begs leave to submit the following report: (1) The sales of publications during the year amounted to $15.90. This sum has been turned over to the Treasurer. (2) Printed copies of the Annual Report of the Twenty-eighth Meeting, 1918, were received about two weeks ago, and copies have been mailed to all persons on the membership list as printed in that report, and to all institutions, societies and libraries on the exchange list. (3) War conditions affected the exchange situation of the Academy as it did of all scientific organizations. Fewer publications were issued and transportation difficulties hindered their distribution. However, since the resumption of near-peace conditions, the foreign societies are informing us that they are now ready to resume exchange relations. Institutions in this country are active in completing files and more parts of the Academy’s Proceedings have been sent out for this purpose than usual. Several of these libraries have been restored to the exchange mailing list. 108 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science (4) The status of the Union Catalog of Scientific Periodicals is about the same as outlined in the last report. Additional shipments of cards have been received from Oberlin College Library and the Western Reserve University College for Women. On account of the difficulties xperienced by libraries in maintaining and meeting the extra demands for service during the war, no pressure has been brought to bear for additional contributions to the Union Catalog. However, it is known that several libraries have partially completed records ready for ship- ment, and are only waiting the completion of their periodical listing before depositing the cards with the Academy. (5) The University Library desires to call attention again to its desire and willingness to serve the members of the Ohio Academy with scientific literature. Through the exchanges and regular purchases, there is maintained a library equipment which can serve in a very satisfactory way the scientists of this state, if they only will make use of the facilities offered to them, either directly through study in the library itself, or through the system of inter-library loan. Respectfully submitted, C. W. REEDER. Report of the Committee on Legislation The following report of the Committee on Legislation was received and ordered filed. Your committee appointed to consider the matter of Legislation begs to report as follows: We find that a number of State Academies receive state support either in the form of publication funds, or support of secretaries or other activities. In all states where such support is in force there seems to be agreement as to the advantage of such support and the only argument opposed to the plan is the possible interference with the entirely inde- pendent attitude of the academies as to matters affecting state activity. The committee recommends that legislation to provide the following lines of support be requested at the hands of the next session of the general assembly and that the Committee on Legislation be authorized to arrange for the introduction of the necessary bills and to meet any necessary expenses incurred in the proper attention ton their con- sideration. First—A provision for the publication of the Proceedings of the Academy, preferably by the direct appropriation of an adequate sum for a creditable publication of not more than 500 pages ver year, or, if necessary, as a part of the State printing. Second—A provision for the compensation of a permanent secretary whose duty shall be to edit the proceedings, look after the activities of the society, the arrangement of details for scientific service to the State under the plan proposed in Ne 3. and other matters of society interest. Twenty-ninth Annual Meeting 109 Third—A provision that in consideration of the support provided as above, the academy agree to act in an advisory capacity in all matters of scientific concern in which the officers of the state may desire their services, such relation to be arranged through the officers and such committees as they or the Executive Committee may appoint, such services to include advice in matters of policy concerning state service of a scientific character and the recommendation of a special expert scientific assistance where needed.

The Report of the Committee on Necrology The following report was presented by the Committee on Necrology: But a single death in the Academy membership has been reported this year. EUGENE Ray Burton joined the Academy in 1915. He was born in Hamilton, Iowa, May 10, 1891. When he was about five years old, his family moved to Findlay, Ohio, where he spent his boyhood and prepared for college. In the fall of 1911 he entered Ohio Wesleyan University, where he received the degrees of B. A. and M.S. in 1915 and 1916 respectively. Before his graduation he served as assistant in Zoology, and remained as teaching fellow, 1915-16, and instructor, 1916-17. In the latter year he and his wife (Dorothy Walters Burton, also a member of the Academy) were in joint:charge of the zoological work of the college during the absence of the head of the department. The year 1917-18 was spent in a successful experiment as superin- tendent of schools in Felicity, Ohio; but Mr. Burton felt that Biology was his real field, and resigned his position to accept an instructorship in Marquette University Medical School, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This work he was destined never to take up. Early in the summer of 1918 he moved to Milwaukee, where he died suddenly on August 14, following an operation for appendicitis. And thus, at its very beginning, a life was suddenly cut off which gave promise of the highest success and usefulness. Mr. Burton was devotedly interested in Zoology and absolutely loyal to scientific truth. Instinctive powers of observation and a passionate love of the out-of-doors gave him exceptional ability as a field naturalist. His death is a real scientific loss to the Academy; to those of us who were 112 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science intimately associated with him the personal loss is even more keenly felt. Mr. Burton was an original and stimulating student, a generous colleague, and a true friend, whom we can ill spare and never forget. CLAUDE E. O’NEAL, EpWARD L. RICE, Committee. Report of Committee on Resolutions The following resolutions were presented by the Com- mittee on Resolutions and adopted by the Academy: 1. The Academy wishes to thank the Local Committee and the professors and officers of Ohio State University for their aid in making the Twenty-ninth Annual Meeting a most successful one. 2. The Academy expresses its thanks to Mr. Emerson McMillin for his generous gifts in support of research work in Ohio. 3. The Academy thanks Mr. David Carroll Churchill for his interesting and instructive lecture on Airplanes. 4. The members of the Academy desire to express their appreciation of the work of our Secretary, which has so materially contributed to the success of this meeting. T. C.

At the adjourned business meeting on Friday, Professor Withrow presented the following resolution, which was adopted by the Academy: 114 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Resolved, That the Ohio Academy of Science expresses its interest in any legitimate effort to render more effective the scientific and engineering work of the national government, and stands ready to approve and aid in any way within its power efforts at co-ordination of the public works of the national government which may be shown, to the Executive Committee of the Academy or to the Academy itself, to be an increase in scientific engineering effectiveness. The Secretary was instructed to communicate the action to Mr. Bradbury, the Ohio representative of the national organizations which are backing this program. Affiliation With A. A. A. S.

REPORT OF, THE THIRTY-FIRST ANNUAL MEETING OF The Ohio Academy of Science The Thirty-first Annual Meeting of the Ohio Academy of Science was held at Western Reserve University and Case School of Applied Science, Cleveland, Ohio, March 25 and 26, 1921, under the Presidency of Mr. W. H. Alexander. Fifty- nine members were registered as in attendance; forty-seven new members were elected. In accordance with the practice begun in 1918, but of which discontinuance has since been threatened, a geological excursion was organized by Professor J. E. Hyde, Vice-President for Geology, 1921—22, for the three days, May 28, 29 and 30. The party was under the guidance of Drs. August Foerste and W. H. Shideler. The itinerary (Wilmington, Clarksville, Fort Ancient, Oregonia, Dayton) was planned for the study of the Richmond formations of southwestern Ohio. Like other Academy func- tions, the excursion was open to non-members as well as members; fifteen geologists were present. GENERAL PROGRAM. FripAy, MARcH 25. 9:30 A. M.—Business Meeting. 11:00 A.

M. on the following day. ‘The appointment of the following committees for the meeting was announced by the chair: Committee on Membership—F. C. Waite, E. L. Fullmer, J. E, Hyde. Commutiee on Resolutions—C. G. Shatzer, R. C. Osburn, W. H. Bucher. Committee on Necrology—J. E. Hyde. The following Auditing Committee was elected by the Academy: L. B. Walton, E. L. Fullmer. The following Nominating Committee was elected by the ballot of the Academy: F. H. Herrick, E. L. Fullmer, J. E. Carman, F. C. Waite, H. H. Young. Report of the Secretary. The following report by the Secretary was received and ordered filed: March 22, 1921. To the Ohio Academy of Science: Much of the work of the Secretary is covered by the Report of the Executive Committee. Thirty-first Annual Meeting 177 The following brief note from Mr. McMillin, in reply to the Secre- tary’s notification of election as patron and fellow, will be of interest to the membership of the Academy and may well have a permanent place in the records of the Academy: DARLINGTON, Mauwau, N. J., July 3, 1920. DEAR Mr. RICE: Your good letter of July 1st was received a few moments ago. I thank the Society for all the honors they have conferred upon me, and greedily accept them all. Most sincerely yours, EMERSON McMILt1n. Edward L. Rice, Sec’y, Ohio Academy of Science. There has been some additional correspondecne with the National Research Council concerning the research work of the Academy. An appeal for the students of the Department of Geography of the Hungarian University of Debreczen was received under date of Decem- ber 7, and will be presented later in the meeting. A brief report of the Thirtieth Annual Meeting was prepared for Science, and appeared in the issue for August 6th. In accordance with the instructions of the Academy, the Secretary prepared the Constitution, as amended to date, for reprinting, and it appeared in the Proceedings:in connection with the Report of the Annual Meeting. A number of technical changes in the form of the membership list were necessitated by the designation of fellows and national members (i. e., Academy members who are also members of the American Asso- ciation for the Advancement of Science). In this revision errors may well have crept in; the secretary will be very grateful for corrections of such mistakes in order that the next list may be made as accurate as possible. Respectfully submitted, Epwarp L. Rice, Secretary. Report of the Treasurer for the Year 1920-'21. The report of the Treasurer was received as follows, and referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended.

He wishes to take this occasion to thank the members of the Ohio Academy of Science for their cordial support. There have been several cases of delays and misunderstandings in the collection of the joint dues for the American Association for the Advance- ment of Science and for the Academy. This is greatly to be regretted but from a careful study of the methods of payment, the Treasurer believes that the system will be practically automatic in another year. In order to avoid all trouble and inconvenience, prompt payments should be made in the early autumn when the bills are sent out. This insures prompt notification of the subscription managers of Science and of the Onto JouRNAL OF SCIENCE and uninterrupted delivery of the two journals. Unless the Treasurer has the unanimous co-operation of the members in the matter of promptness, he cannot assure them of immediate attention. He is at all times glad to have reports of errors or delays and willing to do everything he can to adjust matters to the satisfaction and convenience of the members. During the year the present Treasurer has just served he has done practically all the work of billing, dunning, and corresponding unaided. This was done, not so much with the desire to save the slight cost of additional help, as in the hope that he might come to know all the details of the job and espe- cially to straighten out accounts of members in arrears. It is to be hoped that members will take care of their arrearage sooner in the future, but this matter, in-the case of those members of the Academy who are also A. A. A. S. members, will quickly adjust itself. In the itemized account of the funds the deposits are somewhat swelled because of arrearage. Because there is no adequate adjustment of this for the Ohio JouRNAL an increase to the JOURNAL was given this year. Thirty-first Annual Meeting 179 While this increase for the JoURNAL comes at a time when it is greatly needed, it should be clear in the minds of the members that the Treasurer does not condone arrearages. A periodical journal can not subsist on alternate fat and lean years. It is desirable that its pabulum be more evenly distributed. Further the Treasurer is definitely preparing to meet the future expansion of the On10 JOURNAL OF SCIENCE. He believes in it thoroughly and wishes to make it an adequate medium of expression for all the members. The JouRNAL ought to appeal especially to the younger members of the Academy. They need to pub- lish articles in order to become introduced to the older scientific workers. The Treasurer feels that all the money that can be put into the JouRNAL is still not nearly enough to make it the best one of its kind in the country. By making it attractive, the JOURNAL can continue to publish some of the best articles that the members of the Academy can write. The Treasurer further wishes to call the attention of the members to the fact that Mr. L. H. Tiffany of the Department of Botany of the Ohio State University, has been appointed subscription manager of the JOURNAL. It is his duty to see that all members who have squared accounts with the Treasurer be supplied with all numbers of the Jour- NAL to which they are entitled, without further charges. He is at present attending to all cases of non-delivery of the JoURNAL that have come to his attention. All complaints in the matter of the delivery of the JouRNAL sent to Mr. Tiffany can now be cared for. It is thus to be hoped that the members of the Academy will be promptly served. Respectfully submitted, A. E. WALLER, Tresasurer. We have examined the above report and found it to be correct. Respectfully submitted, L. B. WALTON, E. L. FuLLMER, Auditing Committee. Report of the Executive Committee. The report of the Executive Committee was received as follows and ordered filed: March 25, 1921. To the Ohio Academy of Science: A meeting of the Executive Committee was held in Columbus, December 18, 1920; all members of the Committee were present. An invitation was received from Western Reserve University and Case School of Applied Science to hold the Annual Meeting for 1921 in Cleveland. The Executive Committee voted unanimously to accept this invitation, and set the date of the meeting for April 1 and 2. The date was later changed by correspondence to March 25 and 26, in order to bring it within the spring recess of Western Reserve University. 180 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science The Secretary reported correspondence with Prof. R. C. Friesner, Chairman of the Program Committee of the Indiana Academy of Science, relative to the possibility of a joint field meeting of the two Academies this spring. The joint meeting is rendered difficult by the fact that the Indiana Academy holds a fall meeting for the presentation of papers and a field meeting in the spring, while the Constitution of the Ohio Academy restricts the Annual Meeting to March or April. A joint meeting in the spring must either debar the Ohio Academy from the opportunity for presentation of papers or eliminate the field meeting from the program of the Indiana Academy. The Executive Committee voted its general approval of a joint meeting at some future date, and instructed the Secretary to continue negotiations with the Indiana Academy. The Committee further instructed the Secretary to give notice to the Academy of a proposed amendment to the Constitution removing the present restriction as to the date of the Annual Meeting, unless such amendment shall prove to be contrary to the Charter of the Academy. The Executive Committee recommended to the Joint Committee on the Election of Fellows that an opportunity be given this year for the nomination of fellows by the present fellows of the Academy on the lines suggested in the pending Constitutional amendment. Professor Blake was requested to make an investigation of the desirability of an affiliation of the Academy with the Ohio Association of Technical Societies, as suggested in the Annual Meeting of 1919. The President, Mr. Alexander, was requested to act as Chairman of the Committee on Legislation during the absence of Professor Osborn. A second meeting was held in Cleveland on the evening of March 24, at which this report was adopted. The President, Treasurer and Secre- tary were present at this meeting. Thirty-six new members have been elected during the year, subject to the ratification of the present meeting. Epwarp L. RIcE, Secretary, For the Committee. Report of the Publication Committee. The following report of the Publication Committee was received and ordered filed: The Annual Report of the Thirtieth Meeting (Proc. Ohio Acad. Sci., Vol. VII, Part 5, pp. 117-158) was published on January 17, 1921. It contains the Constitution and By-Laws in addition to the usual matter. Fifty reprints each of the list of members and of the Constitution were also printed. The present arrangement of printing the Secretary’s report in the November issue of the Onto JOURNAL OF SCIENCE fol- lowed soon after by the complete annual report seems satisfactory. Respectfully submitted, Joun H. ScHAFFNER, Chairman. Thirty-first Annual Meeting 181 Report of Library Committee. A brief report for the Library Committee was prepared for the meeting by Mr. Reeder; but, owing to a delay in the mail, this report was not received by the secretary until after the close of the meeting. The following report has since been received for publication. March 23, 1921. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Library Committee begs leave to submit the following report: (1) The sale of publications during the year has amounted to $1295. (2) The Proceedings of the 30th annual meeting of the Academy were published in the On10 JOURNAL OF SCIENCE for November, 1920. Reprints were received late in February and copies were mailed imme- diately to all persons on the membership roll and to sixty-eight insti- tutions on the exchange list. (3) The University Library again calls to the attention of the Academy its willingness to lend to any member, through his institu- tional library, any publication needed in research work. The library is receiving the exchanges from the Ohio Academy and from the Ouro JOURNAL OF SCIENCE, and together with its own purchases and collec- tions in the scientific fields, there is available a remarkable source of literature for advanced study and research. It is hoped that more use will be made of these sources by the scientific men of Ohio. Very respectfully, C. W. REEDER. Report of the Trustees of the Research Fund. The following report of the Trustees of the Research Fund was received and ordered filed. The financial portion of the report was referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended. To the Ohio Academy of Science: _. The Trustees of the Research Fund submit the following report for the period from May 12, 1920, (the date on which the last report was made), to March 1, 1921. During this period only two payments from the fund were made: To L. B. Walton, the balance of the grant made to him in 1917, for the study of fresh water organisms; to Miss Elsie Jordan, for a contin- uation of the work of relabeling the Harper collection of Naiades, under the direction of W. H. Beecher, to whom the grant was made. Unexpended balances remain to the credit of A. E. Waller, for the study of Ohio vegetation, and to W. H. Bucher, for aid in the making of a geological map of the disturbed area in Adams County, Ohio. 182 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science A grant of $150 was made on January 10, 1921, to W. J. Koster, to aid in a survey of the Orthopteran fauna of Ohio. Correspondence is in progress which may lead to a renewal of the grant made to Paul B. Sears on June 1, 1819, and a further allotment to W. H. Bucher, for the continuation of work originally undertaken by them. Below is a tabulated statement of receipts and expenditures during the period covered by this report. In this, it will be noted, is included a one hundred dollar Liberty Bond received from the Treasurer of the Academy to be added to the Research Fund and which is held as a more or less permanent investment along with that purchased in 1918. The accrued interest on both of these bonds is added to the active assets of the funds.

WALTON THUNDERSTORMS: ESPECIALLY THOSE OF OHIO.* WILLIAM H. ALEXANDER Meteorologist, U. S. Weather Bureau, Columbus, Ohio J. THUNDERSTORMS IN GENERAL. 1. Introduction The typical thunderstorm, that is, the thunderstorm com- plete in every detail from its beginning to its ending, has ever held a unique place in the world of human thought and spec- ulation as evidenced by its large and conspicuous place in ancient mythology, by its scarcely less conspicuous place in the history and literature of the race, and by the earnest consideration it has received from the brightest minds of the scientific age. Not only so, but its physical characteristics are such as to assure it a place of real and permanent interest in our present and future thinking along meteorological lines. We are told upon apparently good authority't that more myths have gathered about the thunderstorm and its phe- nomena than about any other natural phenomenon, except possibly light and darkness. And we are quite prepared to believe it when we recall the ominous stillness of the air, the darkness of the sky, the lurid glare of the clouds, the majestic roar of the thunder, and the indescribable effects of the highly electrified bodies on the nerves of many people. If these storms inspire so much awe in the human mind in a scientific age—in these days of our boasted intellectual emancipation—with what unspeakable awe must the primitive mind have regarded them! No wonder the thunderstorm was looked upon as a mystery that pressed for solution or explanation. These early “‘explanations’’ have come down to us as myths, which, like most myths, are of interest to us chiefly because they consti- tute the first efforts of the human mind to explain natural phenomena. Then, as now, a thing was regarded as explained when classified with other things with which we are acquainted. *Presidential address, delivered at the Cleveland meeting of the Ohio Academy of Science. {For numbers of reference, consult bibliography at close of paper. 195 196 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science We explain, for example, the origin, the progress and the ending of a thunderstorm when we classify the phenomena presented by it with other more familiar phenomena of vapor- ization and condensation. But primitive man explained the same thing, to his own satisfaction at least, when he classified it along with the well-known phenomena of human volition by constructing a theory of a great black dragon pierced by the unerring arrows of an heavenly archer. As late as 1600, a German writer would illustrate a thunderstorm destroying a crop of corn by the picture of a dragon devouring the produce of the field with his flaming tongue and iron teeth. But we of today no longer regard the thunderstorm as an object of terror or as an unfathomable mystery, but rather as a natural phenomenon of great economic and scientific interest, one in every way worthy of our best and most serious consideration. The physics and physical features of the thunderstorm are, we believe, fairly well understood. These have been ably and fully discussed by Professor Humphreys of the U. S$. Weather Bureau, whose teaching we follow very closely in this discussion. If the thunderstorm produced only lightning and thunder, it would be of only relative importance, but it may bring along a whole series of redoubtable phenomena, thus presenting problems of real practical importance—problems the magni- tude and importance of which are not always fully appreciated. 2. Definition And now, first of all, let us ask and answer, if we can, this question: ‘‘ What is a thunderstorm?’ Ordinarily, for example, we think of a windstorm as a storm characterized by high and perhaps destructive winds; of a hailstorm as one characterized by the production of hail; of a snowstorm as one that produces snow; of a dust storm as one characterized by a great quantity of flying dust; and so, quite properly, we think of a thunder- storm as a storm characterized by thunder and lightning. This may not, I grant you, serve as a satisfactory definition, but it will, perhaps, be a sufficient answer for the time being to the question asked. It is not necessary in this presence, perhaps, to point out that the ‘‘snow,” the ‘‘wind,” the ‘‘hail,’’ and the ‘‘dust,’’ are in no sense the cause of the storm to which they give name. Thirty-first Annual Meeting 197 Nor, so far as known, have the lightning and thunder any influence on the formation, progress and termination of the thunder-storm, although they may and often do constitute the most impressive, spectacular, and even tragic features of the storm. For as Prof. Humphreys well says,? “‘No matter how impressive or how terrifying these phenomena may be, they never are anything more than mere incidents to or products of the peculiar storms they accompany. In short, they are never in any sense either storm-originating or storm-controlling factors.”’ 3. Source of the Lightning Since we cannot have a thunderstorm without thunder, and cannot have thunder without lightning, it seems quite essential to a proper understanding of these storms to get a correct, scientific explanation of the source or cause of the lightning. Oh, yes, we are fully aware of the danger just here— namely, how easily and how quickly one may get beyond his depth when talking about the origin of electricity. We must admit, of course, that we know very little if anything for certain at this point, but then we would like to appear to know something about this interesting phase of our discussion. We are deeply indebted to Dr. G. C. Simpson® of the Indian Meteorological Department for our best information or knowl- edge on this point. Dr. Simpson, by numerous observations and laboratory experiments found out a great many extremely valuable-things concerning the electricity brought down by the raindrop and the snowflake, and at the same time, by means of a number of well-devised experiments, determined the electrical effects of each obvious process that takes place in the thunderstorm. He found out, for example, that no elec- trification resulted from freezing and thawing, air-friction, etc., but that when he allowed drops of distilled water to fall through a vertical blast of air of sufficient strength to produce some spray, (1) That breaking of drops of water is accompanied by the production of both positive and negative ions. (2) That three times as many negative ions as positive ions are released. as “‘Now,’’ as pointed out by Professor Humphreys’, “a strong upward current of air is one of the most conspicuous 198 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science features of the thunderstorm. It is always evident in the turbulent cauliflower heads of the cumulus cloud, the parent, presumably, of all thunderstorm. Besides, its inference is compelled by the occurrence of hail, a frequent thunderstorm phenomenon, whose formation requires-the carrying of rain- drops and the growing hailstones repeatedly to cold and there- fore high altitudes. And from the existence of hail it is further inferred that an updraft of at least eight meters per second must often occur within the body of the storm, since, as exper- iment shows, it requires approximately this velocity to support the larger drops, and even a greater velocity to support the average hailstone. ‘‘Experiment also shows that rain can not fall through air of ordinary density whose upward velocity is greater than about eight meters per second, or itself fall with greater velocity through still air; that in such a current, or with such a velocity, drops large enough, if kept in tact, to force their way down, or, through the action of gravity, to attain a greater velocity than eight meters per second with reference to the air, whether still or in motion, are so blown to pieces that the increased ratio of supporting area to total mass causes the resulting spray to be carried aloft or left behind, together with, of course, all original smaller drops. Clearly, then, the updrafts within a cumulus cloud frequently must break up at about the same level innumerable drops which, through coalescence, have grown beyond the critical size, and thereby according to Simpson’s experiments, produce electrical sep- aration within the cloud itself. Obviously, under the turmoil of a thunderstorm, its choppy surges and pulses, such drops may be forced through the cycle of union (facilitated by any charges they may carry) and division, of coalescence and dis- ruption, from one to many times, with the formation on each at every disruption, again according to experiment, of a corre- spondingly increased electrical charge. The turmoil compels mechanical contact between the drops, whereupon the charges break down the surface tension and insure coalescence. Hence, once started, the electricity of a thunderstorm rapidly grows to a considerable maximum. ‘After a time the larger drops reach, here and there, places below which the up-draft is small—the air can not be rushing up everywhere—and then fall as positively charged rain, Thirty-first Annual Meeting 199 because of the processes just explained. The negative electrons in the meantime are carried up into the higher portions of the cumulus, where they unite with the cloud particles and thereby facilitate their coalescence into negatively charged drops. Hence, the heavy rain of a thunderstorm should be positively charged, as it almost always is, and the gentler portions neg- atively charged which very frequently is the case. ‘*Such in brief, is Dr. Simpson’s theory of the origin of the electricity in thunderstorms, a theory that fully accounts for the facts of observation and in turn is itself abundantly sup- ported by laboratory tests and simulative experiments. ‘Tf this theory is correct, and it seems well founded, it must follow that the one essential to the formation of the giant cumulus cloud, namely, the rapid uprush of moist air, is also the one essential to the generation of the electricity of thunder- storms. Hence the reason why lightning seldom if ever occurs except in connection with a cumulus cloud is understandable and obvious. It is simply because the only process that can produce the one is also the process that is necessary and suf- ficient for the production of the other.” 4. Turbulence of the Cumulus Cloud. That the large cumulus clouds, especially those that pro- duce thunderstorms, are exceedingly turbulent within with violent vertical motion, as demanded by the theory just out- lined, is evident to even the casual observer. Furthermore the testimony of those balloonists who have had the trying ordeal of passing through the heart of a thunderstorm confirms the facts of observation. Since these are the only clouds, appar- ently, characterized by this high degree of turbulence, it may be well to pause a moment and ask why these motions— motions which, in the magnitude of their vertical components and degree of turmoil, are never exhibited by clouds of any other kind nor are they met with elsewhere by either manned, sound- ing or pilot balloons. Without going into very great detail, it may be pointed out, as has been done by von Bezold*, that the heat liberated by the sudden condensation from a state of supersaturation, and also from the sudden congelation of undercooled cloud particles, would cause @n equally sudden expansion of the atmosphere, resulting in turbulent motions analogous to those observed in the large cumulus clouds. 200 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science This, however, is not sufficient to account for all the observed facts, since it is not clear just how either the condensation or the congelation could suddenly take place throughout a cloud volume great enough to produce the observed effects. We must, therefore, look for some other explanation, and this we shall probably find, 7 the difference between the actual tem- perature gradient of the surrounding atmosphere and the adiabatic temperature gradient of the saturated air within the cloud itself; or, in other words, the cause of the violent up-rush and tur- bulent condition within large cumulus clouds is, presumably, the difference between the temperature of the inner or warmer portions of the cloud itself and that of the surrounding atmos- phere at the same level. 5. Causes of Convectional Instability. As we have just tried to show the sine qui non of the thun- derstorm is the rapid vertical corivection of moist air; the up-rush must be rapid and the air must be mozst; one without the other is not sufficient. We may have, for example, a very rapid convection over a desert region but there being no moisture there will be no cloud-formation and therefore no thunderstorm. On the other hand we may have air ever so humid but if the movement upward is too gentle not even a cloud may result, but if a cloud, certainly no thunderstorm. It is obvious, therefore, that we must have both ‘‘rapid convection’’ and [eiaOish aad! This leads us to a consideration of the conditions under which the vertical temperature gradients necessary to this convection can be established. These conditions are, according to Prof. Humphreys, three in number, namely: (1) A strong surface heating, expecially in regions of light winds. (2) The over-running of one layer of air by another at a temperature sufficiently lower to induce convection. (3) The under-running and consequent uplift of a saturated layer of air by a denser layer. Of these three conditions, the first mentioned—‘‘strong heating surfaces’’—is, for obvious reasons, of most frequent occurrence over the land surfaces of the earth; number two is also of frequent occurrence on land and is, perhaps, well nigh the Thirty-first Annual Meeting 201 sole cause of thunderstorms on the ocean. Number three is by far less frequently the cause of thunderstorms than the other two, for while the actual uwnder-running is of rather fre- quent occurrence, it seems probable that only occasionally is the uplift of sufficient magnitude to cause a thunderstorm. 6. Periodic Recurrence of Thunderstorms. Keeping in mind the conditions or factors absolutely essen- tial to the formation of a thunderstorm, we are well prepared to consider, perhaps in a measure to anticipate, the periodic recurrence and distribution of thunderstorms, for while it is possible, of course, for a thunderstorm to occur on any day at any hour, yet the-fact is, and for obvious reasons, the day has its period of maximum thunderstorm activity, the year its max- imum period, and there is some evidence of irregular cyclic periods of maximum activity, each maximum depending upon the simple facts that the more humid the air and the more rapid the local vertical convections the more frequent and also the more intense the thunderstorms. Taking the day as our unit, we find the period of maximum thunderstorm activity is not the same over the land as over the ocean. Vertical convection of the atmosphere over the land is most pronounced, of course, when the surfaces are most heated, namely, in the afternoons; hence the inland or con- tinental thunderstorm occurs most frequently, in most places, between 2 and 4 P. M. Over the ocean, however, the temper ature gradients that are most favorable for rapid vertical convection are most frequent during the early morning hours, and therefore thunderstorms usually occur on the ocean between midnight and 4 A. M. If we take the year as our unit, we find, for reasons that will readily occur to all, that thunderstorms are most frequent, over the land, when the surface heating is at a maximum, in middle latitudes in June and in the higher latitudes in July or August. Over the ocean, however, the thunderstorm is most frequent in the winter months. Furthermore, since the thunderstorm is vitally associated with rainfall and high temperature, it must follow that a cycle of warm, wet years would give a maximum of thunderstorms and a cycle of cold, dry years a minimum. We have the key to the geographical distribution of thun- derstorms in the conditions essential to their production, and 202 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science while it is safe to say that the thunderstorm, in one form or another, does occur at some time or other in all parts of the earth, yet from what we know of the meteorological conditions ordinarily prevailing over the various portions of the earth, we are very sure that it is very rare over large areas and may never occur in some regions. In the United States®, for exam- ple, we find two centers of maximum thunderstorm activity, one over Tampa, Florida, and the other over Santa Fe, New Mexico. In the ten-year period, 1904-1913, 944 thunderstorms were recorded at Tampa and 710 at Santa Fe. Tampa is near sea- level and Santa Fe is about 7,000 feet above the sea. 7. Classification of Thunderstorms. One is impressed with the very great variety and many variations met with in the study of these storms. This is true whether one is considering the attendant circumstances, the varying degree of intensity exhibited by them, the frequency of occurrence, the resulting effects, the distribution through the day, the year, or over the earth’s surface, or whether one is considering the factors operating to produce and maintain these storms. Variety everywhere! At one time, and not so long ago, it was thought that all thunderstorms were local phenomena and were therefore not subject to any general law. In an important sense the thunder- storm is a local phenomenon but the forces operating to pro- duce many of them are far from local. It is now known that a majority of these storms travel in a definite direction and are therefore moving under a general law. In general, with respect to the producing causes or conditions out of which they grow, thunderstorms may be divided into (1) local or ‘‘heat’’ thunderstorms, and (2) the cyclonic thunderstorms, or ‘“‘thundersqualls.’’ Or, if we wish to be a little more exact or ‘‘scientific,’’ we may follow Professor Humphreys and make five classes, namely, (1) the ‘‘heat”’ or local, (2) the cyclonic, (3) the tornadic, (4) the anti-cylconic, and (5) the “border,” thunderstorm. The significance of this classification will be pointed out later in connection with the illustrated portion of this lecture but it seems appropriate at this time to refer to Durand-Greville’s famous theory of ‘‘the squall zone”’ in con- nection with cyclonic thunderstorms. He holds that ‘cyclonic thunderstorms’’—and that means all except the ‘“‘local’’ or Thirty-first Annual Meeting 203 ““‘heat”’ thunderstorm—are but an accessory result of a body of extremely complex phenomena—an organism someone has called it®’—the squall, which is subject to fixed laws and forms an integral part of certain lows. This so-called “squall zone”’ in which, according to Durand-Greville’, nearly all ‘“‘cyclonic”’ thunderstorms, or as he calls them, ‘‘thundersqualls,”’ occur, starts some where near the center of the barometric depression or “‘low”’ and usually extends out to its boundary, thus having a length of a thousand miles or more, while its width may vary from 10 to 60 miles or more. This zone moves, advances or recedes, with the “‘low”’ of which it is a part, as a rule remain- ing parallel with itself. Should the ‘‘low’’ remain stationary, the squall zone may, and usually does, swing round the center. The passage of the ‘‘squall zone’”’ over any given place, shown by the familiar ‘‘squall hook’’ of the barograph trace, is attended by the concomitant production of certain phenomena that occur only within the limits of the zone. They begin at the moment the “‘squall front’’ of the squall zone reaches the place of observation, they rapidly attain their maximum inten- sity, and then gradually weaken and finally die out as the rear of the zone passes and normal conditions become established. These accompanying phenomena may be more or less numerous, thus giving rise to a variety of “‘squalls,’’ each characterized by its appropriate phenomena. These squalls have been clas- sified by Durand-Greville as follows, viz.: oe DURAND-GREVILLE’S CLASSIFICATION OF SQUALLS® 1.

Note also that the phenomena observed during the passage of a squall are actually the results of two causes, one of these, the “squall wind,” is purely dynamic, pre-existant, and may be of distant origin; the other is the local condition of the atmosphere and is static. 8. The Mechanism of the Thunderstorm. Thus far we have considered the thunderstorm in a more or less general way—its definition, its causes, its recurrence, its distribution, its relation to areas of high and low pressure, ete. Let us now consider a typical thunderstorm in actual progress and note its mechanism and some of-its more important phe- nomena. Just here the slide would be very helpful but we shall content ourselves just now with the bare mention of some of the things that one may look for in the well-defined thunder- storm. Among these may be mentioned the winds, the squall cloud, the pressure, the temperature, the humidity, the rain, the hail, the so-called ‘‘rain-gush,’’ the rate of advance of the storm, the lightning, and the thunder. First, the thunderstorm winds must be carefully considered if one is to understand fully the mechanism of the thunderstorm itself. As every one knows, as a thunderstorm approaches a given place the wind at that place is generally light and from a direction that carries it across the path of the approaching storm, that just before the rain begins the wind begins to die down, almost to a calm, and to change its direction. When this change is complete it blows for a few moments, rather gently, directly toward the nearest portion of the storm front, and finally as the rain is almost at hand, there is a sudden change of direction and the wind now comes, often in violent gusts, directly away from the storm and in the direction the storm is moving, a direction quite different from the original direction of the wind. As a rule these strong gusts of wind last through the early part of the storm only and then follow gentle winds again, at first following the storm but after an hour or so they blow from the same general direction as the original surface winds. Now, as we have tried to show, the thunder- storm is the child of a cumulus cloud and the cumulus cloud is the child of a vertical convection which results from a more or less super-adiabatic temperature gradient. This gradient Thirty-first Annual Meeting 205 may be established in one of three ways, as above pointed out. Now, inasmuch as the passage of a cumulus cloud overhead, however large, so long as rain does not fall from it, does not materially disturb the surface winds, in other words, does not bring on any of the familiar gusts and other thunderstorm phenomena, we must infer that in some way the rain is an important factor both in starting and maintaining the winds we have just noted. On the other hand we cannot assume that the rain is the whole cause of these winds for they do not accompany other and ordinary showers, however heavy the rainfall. The ‘‘rain-gush”’ or heavy downpour after a heavy clap of thunder has often been misunderstood and has been made to serve as a proof of the claims of the so-called ‘‘rain-makers.”’ The fact is the rain is the cause of the thunder or lightning, and not the thunder the cause of the heavy rain. Then there is the lightning in its various forms, the ‘‘streak lightning, the so-called ‘“‘rocker’’ lightning, the ‘“‘ball’’ light- ning, the ‘‘sheet’’ lightning, the ‘‘beaded’”’ (?) lightning, the “return” lightning, and some people say the ‘‘dark”’ lightning, and so on. To discuss all these would carry us far beyond our limit. Then there is the question of the temperature along the path of a lightning discharge, how does the lightning render the atmosphere through which it passes luminous, etc. Perhaps no one knows the answer to these questions but it is very certain that the temperature along the path of the lightning discharge is very high from the fact that it sets fire to many objects, such as buildings, that fall within its path. Just how the lightning discharge renders its path through the atmosphere luminous is not definitely known. Of course it does make the air along its path very hot but no one so far as I know has ever succeeded by any ordinary means in rendering oxygen or nitrogen luminous by heating. It must be therefore, that the luminosity is due to something besides high temperature, probably, according to Prof. Humpbreys, to ‘internal atomic disturbances induced by the swiftly moving electrons of the discharge.’’ The spectrum reveals to us the interesting fact that lightning flashes are of two colors, white and pink or rose. The rose-colored flashes, when examined in the spectroscope, show several lines due to hydrogen, which of course are due to the decomposition of some of the water along the lightning path. The duration of ? 206 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science the lightning discharge is exceedingly variable, ranging from 0.0002 second for a single flash to, in rare cases, even a full second or more for a multiple flash consisting of a primary and a series of subsequent flashes. The lightning discharge is direct, not alternating, as shown by the fact that the lightning may operate telegraph instruments, may reverse the polarity of dynamos, both of which requires a direct current. The length of the lightning streak also varies greatly. When the discharge is from cloud to earth the length is seldom more than 2 or 3 kilometers, but when from cloud to cloud may be 10 to 20 kilometers (6 to 12 miles). The path of the lightning discharge may extend from the cloud to earth, from one portion to another of the same cloud, or from one cloud to another cloud. Obviously the second case is of the most fre- quent occurrence, that is, from the upper to the lower portion of the same cloud; from cloud to earth is next in point of fre- quency, and from cloud to cloud, relatively rare. Sometimes the discharge from cloud to earth may include in its strange and tortuous path objects that have not sufficient conductivity to carry it and as a result of the sudden and excessive heating many very freakish things may be done, such as shingles blown off, chimneys shattered, trees stripped of their bark or splin- tered, wires fused, even holes melted through metal, ete. Then there are certain chemical reactions resulting from these elec- trical discharges that play an important part in the economy of nature. For instance the health-giving ozone of the atmosphere is greatly increased by the passage of a thunderstorm, and even the fertility of the soil may be increased by the production of considerable quantities of ammonia and soluble salts. Perhaps, a word or two should be said regarding the danger to life incident to the passage of a thunderstorm. That there is danger, even great danger at times, is abundantly shown from the tragic statistics of deaths each year from this cause. While it is not possible, perhaps, to remove this danger, it is possible to reduce it, chiefly by avoiding the points of greatest danger. In general, it is safer inside than outside of a house, especially if the house has a well-grounded rod or metal roof; it is also safer in the valley than on a hill or elevated portion of land, this because the chance for a cloud-to-earth discharge varies inversely as the distance between them; it is also very unsafe to take refuge under a tree and the taller the tree the - Thirty-first Annual Meeting 207 greater the danger. No tree is immune but those trees having an extensive root system or a deep tap-root are most apt to be struck because they are the best grounded and therefore offer the least electrical resistance. Then again if one is caught out of doors and is exposed to a violent thunderstorm it is best so far as danger from lightning is concerned, to let one’s clothes get soaking wet, because wet clothes are much better conductors and dry clothes much poorer conductors, than the human body. It might even be advisable to lie flat on the wet ground, undignified as this may be. For any given local- ity, the lower the cloud the greater the danger; hence, when the humidity is high it is favorable for a dangerous storm, since the cloud will form at a low level and the rain is apt to be very abundant. For the same reason a winter storm is likely to be more dangerous than a summer storm of equal intensity. And now how do we account for the thunder—that par- ticular feature that gives name to our storm? It has taken quite a while to answer this question satisfactorily. Many very silly theories still persist. The electrical discharge, the “‘lightning,’’ furnishes the key to the explanation. The sudden and intense heating of the air along the path of the discharge causes it to expand suddenly and violently, sending out from every part of its path a steep compression wave, which, as we understand it, is the real cause of the thunder. The ‘“‘rumbling’”’ that sometimes follows is due, chiefly perhaps, to the inequality in the distances from the observer to the various portions of the lightning’s path, to the crookedness of the path, to a succession of discharges, and to some extent to reflection under favorable conditions. The distance to which thunder may be heard varies from 7 to 15 miles. 9. Forecasting the Thunderstorm. The forecasting of conditions favorable for the formation of thunderstorms one or two days in advance is comparatively easy but to say, even a few hours in advance, that a thunder- storm will occur at a given place, at or about a given time, is, to say the least, a hazardous venture. It is only after the storm has actually begun and its direction and rate of move- ment have been determined, can one speak with even a small degree of assurance. As every one knows, a storm may occur, in fact several of them, in sight of the observer and yet not at 208 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science the place of observation. Then besides the thunderstorm is of a very limited duration; it may, at the very most, last twenty- four hours, but as a rule a very few hours will exhaust it. It is only when this type of storm assumes the character of a tornado that knowledge of its approach becomes really important. 10. The Thunderstorm and Excessive Precipitation. Another thing that gives to the thunderstorm economic importance is the fact that from 66 to 100 per cent of all instances of excessive precipitation in the United States occur as the result of or in connection with thunderstorms’. Some places, like Bismark, Denver and Sante Fe, excessive precip- itation never occurs except in connection with thunderstorms. Furthermore, the records will show that practically all cases of remarkable downpours of rain or hail occur in connection with these storms. II. THUNDERSTORMS IN OHIO. 1. Introduction. Needless to say, the thunderstorms of Ohio do not differ in any essential respect from those we have been discussing. Our chief and perhaps only excuse for referring to them at this time and in this manner is to make an occasion to call the attention of the Academy to a piece of work accomplished in Ohio that, so far as we know, is the only one of its kind in this or any other country, namely an intensive study of thunder- storms over a limited region through a period of one year. The purposes were to determine as far as practicable the origin, the distribution, the number, the frequency, the extent of territory covered, the attending phenomena, etc., of these storms, and if possible, trace the history of each individual thunderstorm that entered or originated in the state of Ohio, during the year 1917. 2. The Plan. Our plan was to secure at least one observer in each town- ship in the State but as the work was to be purely gratuitous we were not able to interest one person in each of the 1357 townships. Our total enlistment was about 730 volunteer Thirty-first Annual Meeting 209 observers, about 130 co-operative observers and the six regular Weather Bureau stations in the State. We also received some assistance from the telephone and telegraph companies in the State and even dealers in lightning rods. 3. Forms and Instruction. Each observer was then supplied with full instructions and a suitable card on which to make his report of each storm. This form called for the exact date and time of the storm, the exact location of the observer, time first, loudest and last thunder was heard, direction the storm moved, time rain began and ended, time hail began and ended, direction of wind before and after the storm, etc. The weakness of the plan was, of course, in the fact that it was dependent upon voluntary service and as was to have been expected, some observers failed us at the critical moment, so that we were not always sure we had the complete history of each storm. However, we assembled quite a mass of thunderstorm data and these have been charted and otherwise prepared for publication. 3. A Resume. Among the many interesting facts brought out in the special study of thunderstorms in Ohio during the year 1917, may be mentioned, briefly, the following: (a) Thunderstorms in Ohio are incident to the passage of those cyclonic areas (see M. W. R., Supplement No. 1) that move directly over or just north of the State, and to the approach of those that move just south of the State. The first group includes the Alberta, the North Pacific, the Rocky Mountain and probably the Central and Colorado types; the second group includes the South Pacific and the Texas types, especially those that follow a northeasterly course. The passage of the Alberta type, especially in the late winter or early spring months, will cause thunderstorms in Ohio when the wind-shift line, or ‘‘squall line,’’ is pronounced, and extends in a north-south, or a northeast-southwest direc- tion. These thunderstorms will set in slightly in advance of this line and will continue until it has passed. See weather map of January 31, 1917, 7 A. M. The passage of the North Pacific, the Northern Rocky Mountain, the Central, and the Colorado 210 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science types, will cause thunderstorms in Ohio only when an area of high pressure prevails over the eastern Lake Region or New England. See weather map of April 17, 1917, 7 A. M. As these types are usually followed by a high pressure area from the northwest of more or less intensity and therefore move with considerable rapidity, the thunderstorms incident thereto are apt to be of short duration and are seldom of a violent character. But to the approach of the South Pacific and Texas types is to be attributed by far the greater portion of the thunderstorms in Ohio. These types prevail from early May into late October. As a rule thunderstorms will set in over the western part of the State when the center of the “‘low’’ reaches Missouri or southern Illinois and will probably become general over the State. These cyclonic types often bring thunderstorms of a very violent nature. When the “‘low’’ passes over the north- western corner of the State, thus forcing the isotherms far northward of their normal position, and is followed by a “‘high”’ of moderate intensity, hailstorms are likely to occur with the shift of the wind—passage of the squall line—and subsequent increase in pressure. See weather maps of March 10 and 11, 1917. The position of the Atlantic high does not seem to have any material effect on the rain-producing characteristics of these ‘‘lows.’’ When the path of these cyclonic types suddenly curves to the north and passes into the Lake Region from northern Indiana or I]linois, thunderstorms are likely to occur in Ohio both on the approach and the passage of these areas. Normally, however, their passage just over or just south of the State is followed by brisk westerly winds, clearing weather and falling temperature. The East Gulf and South Atlantic types gave rise to no thunderstorms in Ohio during the year 1917. (b) The data seem to show certain centers of maximum activity and storm-frequency. The southwestern part of the State is certainly the most favorable portion for the develop- ment of the tornado as all tornadoes of consequence in the his- tory of the Bureau have occurred in that section. (c) Thunderstorms were reported on 169 days, midnight to midnight. Of these 169 days, thunderstesms occurred in the forenoon only on 22 days, on the afternoon only on 80 days, on Thirty-first Annual Meeting 211 both forenoon and afternoon on 63 days, on 9 days the storm began in the forenoon and ended in the afternoon, and on 2 occasions the storm began on the afternoon or evening of one day and ended in the early morning of the following day. Note that the afternoon thunderstorm is about four times as fre- quent as the forenoon, that the number of days with thunder- storms both morning and afternoon is quite large, that the number of days on which the storm begins in the forenoon and continues into the afternoon is quite small and the num- ber beginning in the afternoon or evening and continuing beyond midnight is smaller still. The reports further show that at leats 31 persons were killed during the year by lightning, 70 others more or less injured; in addition, a large number of animals were killed and much property destroyed. We have no reliable figures as to how many times the lightning actually struck but we learn from the report of the State Fire Marshal that 215 fires were started during the year as the result of a lightning stroke, destroying property valued at about $370,000. The 215 objects damaged or destroyed were classified as follows: 137 barns, 53 dwellings, 4 churches, 4 sheds, 4 warehouses, 2 haystacks, 2 oil tanks, 1 dry cleaning establishment, 1 hotel, 1 livery stable, 1 school house, 1 straw stack, 1 manufacturing estab- lishment and 2 mercantile buildings. The Fire Marshal’s office takes no note of lightning strokes that do not start a fire or cause the loss of human life. These fires were distributed through the months as follows, viz.: February, 5; March, 6; April, 5; May; 33; June, 27; July, 45; August, 66; September, 17; October, 11; January, November and December, none. Another item of considerable interest, perhaps, is that about 95 per cent of the objects struck were wet at the time and rain was falling, leaving only about 5 per cent that were dry and struck when no rain was falling. In one case, the burning of a barn near Conneaut, Ashtabula County, March 26th, the report seems to indicate that snow was falling at the time of the stroke that caused the fire. Another thing: The days on which thunderstorms are general over the State are relatively few. Of the 169 thunder- storm days in 1917, on 7 days only were thunderstorms general; on 11 days they covered about three-fourths of the State; on 212 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 23 days about one-half; on 17 days, nearly half the State; on the rest, they were local and limited. As intimated above, the publication of this report (Thunder- storms in Ohio in 1917) has been and is being delayed on account of lack of the necessary funds. LITERATURE CITED fun .

Total Membership—326 REPORT OF THE THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL MEETING OF The Ohio Academy of Science The Thirty-second Annual Meeting of the Ohio Academy of Science was held at Ohio State University, Columbus, April 14 and 15, 1922, under the Presidency of Professor Raymond C. Osburn. Eighty-seven members were registered as in attend- ance; forty-six new members were elected. On invitation of the geologists of the Michigan Academy of Science, a number of the members of the Geological Section of the Ohio Academy, under the Vice-Presidency of Professor Kirtley F. Mather, participated in a joint field meeting, held June 3 and 4, for the study of the glacial geology and Silurian rocks of Southeastern Michigan and adjoining portions of Ontario. The party was under the leadership of Mr. Frank Leverett, of the University of Michigan, and Professor W. H. Sherzer, of the Michigan State Normal College. Professor J. E. Carman, of Ohio State University, collaborated in directing the investigations at certain localities. GENERAL PROGRAM. FripAY, APRIL 14. 9:30 A. M.—Business Meeting. 11:00 A.

Report of the Secretary. The following report by the Secretary was received and ordered filed. April 4, 1922. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The work of the Secretary for the year has been largely routine, but a few items are of some general interest. A brief report of the Thirty-first Annual Meeting was prepared for Science, and appeared in the issue for September 23. Thirty-second Annual Meeting 231 The Secretary was present to represent the Academy at the meetings of the Council of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, held in connection with the Toronto meeting. The blank form for nomination of fellows was prepared, as directed, -and mailed to all members in connection with the preliminary announce- ment of this meeting. The certificate of election to fellowship is in preparation; a proof was submitted to the Executive Committee for suggestion and criticism at the meeting of April 13. The following letter was received from the Wisconsin Academy of Science, Arts and Letters: Sept. 15, 1921. The Secretary, Ohio Academy of Science, Columbus, Ohio. My Dear Sir: We take great pleasure in sending to your institution, under separate cover, the bronze medallion issued in 1920 in commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the Wisconsin Academy, 1870-1920. We ask you to accept it with our fraternal greetings. A brief description of the medallion, with a short statement of its significance, is sent with the medallion itself. A fuller account is printed in the Fiftieth Anni- versary volume, Volume XX of the Transactions of the Academy. Yours very truly, CHANCEY JUDAY, Secretary. The medallion was duly acknowledged, and has been placed with the archives of the Academy in the Library Building. A letter from V. A. Latham, corresponding secretary of the State Microscopical Society of Illinois, contains the following sentences, asking for the co-operation of members of the Academy: . “Ts there any one you know of who might have duplicates of Scientific Journals, especially Microscopy? We are anxious to com- plete ours and the John Crerar Library, and any help through your Academy would be appreciated. We had so many former micro- workers in your state who were members.” Dr. Latham may be addressed at 1644 Morse Ave, Rogers Park, Chicago. Several years ago the Secretary suggested the desirability of con- centrating the administrative work of the Academy in Columbus by the election ‘of a Columbus man as secretary. This suggestion may well be repeated at this time. The increase in membership, the organization of new sections, and the affiliation with the American Association for the Advancement of Science have so materially increased the routine work of the secretary and treasurer that the Academy should look forward in the very near future to the organization of a regular Academy headquarters in Columbus, with salaried secretary and treasurer, or, probably better, a secretary-treasurer, for efficiency would be conserved in various ways by the combination of the two offices. This matter is further considered in the report of the Executive Committee. Respectfully submitted, Epwarbp L. Rice, Secretary. 232 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Report of the Treasurer for the Year 1921-1922.

This is the amount derived from the dollar of the individual membership fee toward the upkeep of the Journal, as provided for in the Constitution of the Ohio Academy of Science. It should be noted that this is the amount derived from membership dues for 1921-1922 and advanced to the Business Manager, in order that he might pay current expenses. As more dues are paid, more money will be advanced, but your Treasurer is not empowered to advance more than the amount allowed by the Constitution. He feels that definite measures should be provided for permanently relieving the embarrassment of the Ohio Journal of Science, which has been and is well managed and has only fallen into debt because of the rising costs of publication. The Journal has a large and growing circulation and is a medium for the com- munication of papers of the members of the Academy within the State and abroad. It offers rather prompt publication, a desideratum well worth considering in these days of over-crowded journals, many of which face a more serious deficit than our own. There are two proposals which the Treasurer desires to offer as a means of removing the deficit of the Journal. They are both temporary relief measures. The first is that money be advanced from the Research Fund. This is the more attractive proposal, because the product of scientific research must sooner or later be communicated to some scientific audience. The research fund is open to members of the Academy who desire aid for the completion of their studies. It would be of aid to the worker and his audience alike, if the fund should be drawn upon to remove the deficit of the Journal. The second proposal is that the Treasurer be empowered to remove the deficit. This has the objection that the measure amounts to the equivalent of increasing, to the subscriber, the cost of the Journal, even though this increase be a temporary one. It is to be distinctly understood that the Treasurer is opposed to any permanent increase in the cost of the Journal. The Editor, Dr. F. H. Krecker, has the problem of keeping up the standard of the Journal at the least cost, and has not indicated that the price of the Journal to subscribers is too low. The two proposals are placed before the Academy with the request that action be taken. In the meantime an active campaign for more funds should be carried on. An increase in the number of members is greatly desired. An 234 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science appeal for individual help for the Journal from persons interested in its welfare and for an increased subsidy from the Ohio State University have both been suggested. No definite action has been taken on these suggestions as yet. A. E. WALLER, Treasurer. The financial portion of the above report has been examined and found correct. M. E. STICKNEY, F. L. LANDACRE, Auditing Committee. Report of the Executive Committee. The report of the Executive Committee was received as follows and ordered filed. April 14, 1922. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Executive Committee has met twice since the last Annual Meeting of the Academy. At the first meeting, December 17, Messrs. R. C. Osburn, Waller, Alexander and Rice were present, with Professor Herbert Osborn as guest; at the second meeting, last evening, all members of the Committee were in attendance. Several matters of business have also been handled through correspondence. That the date of the Annual Meeting was set for April 14 and 15, in Columbus, is already sufficiently well known. Dean George F. Arps was appointed Vice-President for Psychology, to succeed Professor Rudolph Pintner, resigned. Twenty-nine applications for membership have been approved during the year, subject to ratification by the present meeting. A communication was received from Arthur MacDonald, under date of October 11, 1921, urging the adoption of a resolution calling upon Congress to concentrate ‘‘the scientific bureaus of the Government under the jurisdiction of the Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institution, with the view to developing Government science to the highest possible efficiency, by affording scientific workers permanent tenure of office, greater freedom in investigation, non-interference of politics, and adequate salaries.” Your Committee deemed it unwise to commit the Academy to this policy. _ The Committee recommends that the Academy take action urging upon the colleges of Ohio the desirability of a uniform spring vacation, to facilitate for instructors the attendance upon the meetings of the Academy and other professional societies composed wholly or in con- siderable part of college men. The Committee recommends the amendment of Chapter 1, Section 1, of the By-laws by the addition of the clause: ‘‘members who have paid regular dues in the Academy for twenty-five years shall also be ‘classed as life members, and shall be relieved of further financial obligations. ”’ Thirty-second Annual Meeting 235 The Executive Committee has considered the desirability of modifica- tions of the status of the secretary and treasurer of the Academy in line with the suggestions of the Secretary’s report. Such readjustments may make desirable the combination of the two offices and the addition to the Executive Committee of a third elective member. In order that such action may be possible at the next annual meeting, in case it is deemed desirable, the Committee desires that this report be considered as notification of proposed amendment of the constitution. The Committee further recommends the reference of the entire matter to the incoming Executive Committee for further consideration and report. Respectfully submitted, Epwarb L. Rice, Secretary, For the Committee. Report of the Publication Committee. The following report of the Publication Committee was received and ordered filed. The Annual Report of the Thirty-first Meeting, Proceedings, Vol. VII, Part 6, contained 54 pages, including the President’s address, which also appeared in the November, 1921, number of the Ohio Journal of Science. It is recommended that beginning with this year the President’s address shall be published in the Ohio Journal of Science as soon after the Annual Meeting as possible, that it shall not be offered for pub- lication elsewhere until it has appeared in the Journal and that it shall not be published in the Annual Report. It is further recommended that the Secretary’s report shall be published in the Ohio Journal of Science in the summer or autumn, so that the Annual Report can be printed in December. It seems desirable also to publish any special address, delivered on invitation before the Academy, in the Ohio Journal of Science. Since the membership of the Academy is increasing rapidly it is the intention of the publication committee to print 750 copies of the Annual Report and of any special papers, instead of 500 as heretofore. Respectfully submitted, Joun H. ScCHAFFNER, Chairman. Report of the Library Committee. The following report of the Library Committee was received and ordered filed. April 14, 1922. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Library Committee begs leave to submit the following report: 1. The annual report of the Thirty-first meeting of the Academy, held in 1921, was published in the Ohio Journal of Science for November, 236 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science 1921, and later reissued with additions as part six of volume seven of the Proceedings of the Academy. Copies of this number were mailed to every person on the membership list, and to the seventy-one scientific societies on the exchange list. 2. The sale of publications during the year has been above the average, the amount received being $37.00. This sum has been turned over to the treasurer. 3. Since the members of the Academy are interested in the develop- ment of library resources in the natural sciences, the Committee wishes to take this opportunity to call attention to several very notable addi- tions to the collections of the Ohio State University Library made during the year: (a) Academie des Sciences (Paris) Memoires, 1666-1770. (b) Academie Imperiale des sciences de Saint Petersbourg Memoires et bulletin. Complete to date. (c) K. Akademie der Wissenschaften (Vienna) Denkschriften philosophisch-historische Klasse, v. 1-62, 1850-1918. Sitzungsberichte philosophisch-historische Klasse, v. 1-180, 1847-48—1915-16. The Library already owns the Denkschriften and Sitzun- berichte of the Mathematisch-naturwissenschaftliche Klasse. (d) Annales des sciences naturelles, zoologie et botanique, 1824-1908 in 316 volumes. (This is one of the three complete sets in the United States). (e) Biologia Centrali—Americana; or, Contributions to the knowledge of the fauna and flora of Mexico and Central America; ed. by F. D. Godman and Osbert Salvin, 63 v. 1879-1915. (f) Journal of Botany, British and foreign, v. 1-46, 1863-1908. (g) Linnean Society of London, Transactions, 1791-1916, 55 vols. (h) Societe d’anthropologie de Paris, Bulletin, 57 vols. 1860- 1915. ; (i) Zoological Society of London. Transactions, v. 1-20, 1833-1915. Needless to say, all members of the Academy are welcome, not only to the use of these new sets, but also to all the sources in the scientific field which are owned by the University Library. Very respectfully, C. W. REEDER, For the Committee. Thirty-second Annual Meeting 237 Report of the Trustees of the Research Fund.

The Committee on Legislation reported that no further action had been taken since the last annual meeting, but recommended that the committee be continued with a view to presenting desired legislation to the next General Assembly. 238 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Report of the Committee on State Parks and Conservation. In an oral report of progress, the chairman of the Com- mittee, Professor Herbert Osborn, mentioned the great advance that has been made in the acquisition of protected tracts by the Division of Fish and Game of the State Department of Agriculture and by the State Forester, and emphasized the cordial attitude of these officers toward the permanent preser- vation of the native fauna and flora of these tracts. He also called attention to the very valuable list of Ohio areas desirable for preservation compiled by Dr. E. Lucy Braun, representing the Ecological Society of America, and urged the co-operation of the Academy membership in the extension of this list by the report of additional interesting localities. Director Taber, of the State Department of Agriculture, was invited by the committee to address the Academy, and spoke very interestingly of the present condition of the tracts owned and leased by the State as game preserves and the plans of the Department for their development and control. He expressed a keen interest in the preservation of all forms of native plant and animal life in these tracts and the desire that the Academy assist, through its Committee on State Parks and Conservation and its individual membership, by the sugges- tion of desirable tracts and control measures. On his own request, Professor M. M. Metcalf was excused from the committee, and Professor E. R. Hayhurst elected in his place. The committee now consists of Herbert Osborn, chairman, J. &. Carman, E.R: Hayhurst, F. BH. Herrckei@aies Shatzer, E. N. Transeau. The following recommendations of the committee were approved by the Academy: 1. That the Committee on State Parks and Conservation be made a standing committee, and that the details concerning time of service and future elections be referred to the Executive Committee. 2. That the Academy favors the establishment of a State Com- mission on Parks and Conservation, composed of one representative each for the Division of Fish and Game of the State Department of Agriculture, the Division of Forestry of the Ohio Experiment Station, the State Board of Public Works, the State Archeological Society, the State Geological Survey, and the State Board of Health, and two representatives for the Ohio Academy of Science—one a_ botanist and one a zoologist. Thirty-second Annual Meeting 239 3. That the duties of this commission shall include the following: To advise and co-operate in the selection of tracts desirable for state parks, forests, game refuges, and scientific reservations; to formulate regulations as to the manner in which such tracts may be used for recreational, historic, refuge, scenic, scientific, or other purposes; and to inaugurate measures for the most efficient development of the various tracts for the purposes agreed upon. The Academy further voted to suggest that the committee consider the advisability of employing a salaried officer to pro- mote conservation work in Ohio. Election of Officers.

Report of the Committee on Election of Fellows. The following report of the Committee on Election of Fellows was accepted and ordered filed. April 14, 1922. To the Ohio Academy of Science: A meeting of the Committee on Election of Fellows was held on the evening of April 13th. Five of the joint committee were present; four were represented by duly authorized proxies; two were absent without representation, although the proxy of one arrived just after ‘the close of the meeting. Sixteen nominations were received by the committee. In the consideration of these nominations the committee was guided by the principles laid down last year—that members should not be elected to fellowship until one year, at least, after election to membership, and that resident members should not be elected to fellowship who are not showing an active interest in the work of the Academy. 242 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Eleven of the nominees received the necessary nine votes (unanimous for those present at the meeting), and were duly elected to fellowship. The newly elected fellows will receive personal notification, and the list will be published in the Annual Report. Epwarp L. Rice, Secretary, For the Committee.

Thirty-second Annual Meeting 243 Report of the Committee on Necrology. The following report of the Committee on Necrology was adopted by the Academy and ordered filed. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF GEORGE FREDERICK WRIGHT By GeorGe D. HuBBARD,* Oberlin, Ohio. In the passing of Professor George Frederick Wright a long life of active, productive work has closed and there goes from our midst one who has been an example and an inspiration to us all. Dr. Wright was born in Whitehall, New York, January 22nd, 1838. His death occurred on April 20th, 1921, of heart failure following influenza. He came of sturdy New England Puritan stock. On his mother’s side, the family had been on American soil since 1640; on the father’s side perhaps equally long. Mr. Wright’s father was a farmer, and this son, one of a large family, acquired his early education in the local schools. At the age of seventeen he had gone as far as the district school could take him, and went out to teach a term in the only kind of school he knew. It was in 1855, while still only seventeen, that he made the long journey from the old family home at Whitehall to the little college of Oberlin. Four years were spent in the undergraduate course and three in the theological seminary. These seven years came at a time in the history of Oberlin, as well as of the nation, when the social and even the political order trembled, and great questions were before the people. Mr. Wright found Oberlin a splendid place in which to feel his way in the discussion and solution of theologic, scientific, social and political questions, and he always took an intelligent part in such activities. These seven years not only gave him his college and seminary course, but laid the foundations for his future career. They brought out many of the qualities that were subsequently to give him the place he took in the world. His first public service was a ten-year pastorate of the Congregational Church at Bakersfield, near St. Albans, in northwestern Vermont. His next residence was nearly an equal period at Andover, Massa- chusetts, as pastor of the Free Church, a residence which threw him in close contact with the stimulating faculty of Andover Theological Seminray. The friendships and intercourse of this period proved of very great value in Mr. Wright’s life work. Not only did he meet the men of the Andover faculty, but he came in close contact with scholars of Boston, New Haven, and New York, to whose influence he readily responded. From Andover he was called to Oberlin in 1881 to become *The author is quite unfamiliar personally with all of Professor Wright's experience save the last fifteen years, but is very happy to have known him so well in these later years. Owing to this lack of first hand information, extensive and frequent use has been made of life sketches prepared for other purposes, even s the borrowing of phrases and sentences. Credit and thanks are hereby given or all. : 244 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science professor of New Testament Language and Literature in the theological seminary. Eleven years later, through the interest and generosity of a friend who established a chair for the purpose, Prof. Wright was made head of the department of The Harmony of Science and Revela- tion. In 1907 he reached the retiring age and became Emeritus Pro- fessor in the same chair until his death. Thus he had twenty years of pastoral work, twenty-six years of seminary teaching and fourteen years as Emeritus Professor. When Mr. Wright began his first pastorate he set apart his mornings for scientific study, and they were as carefully preserved for that work as any student preserves his best hours to prepare for his class work. Part of his time was given to field work, a considerable portion to translation from Greek and German, work which greatly increased his proficiency in foreign languages. His studies took him through much theological and scientific literature, among which was Darwin’s “Origin of Species.”? He did very little writing for publication until he entered the second pastorate at Andover, but here the papers began to come at frequent intervals. A few dealt with glacial problems, many with theologic and philosophic questions, and even here there began the long series of papers which came from his pen expressing his belief that there was nothing in science to hinder one’s faith in God, Jesus and miracles. Although a strong champion of the theory of evolution, he was also a firm believer in evangelical Christianity. He believed in applying pragmatic tests to Christianity as much as to scientific truth, and this, much to the advantage of both. His scientific studies confirmed his religious conviction and theological conclusions. Open to truth from any source, research or revelation, he believed that no truth could be contradictory, since all was God’s, whether expressed in His works or word. While Prof. Wright’s scientific training was very meagre, his scientific interest was always to the front. The home of his first pastorate was on a sand plain with esker and kame connections. This was in the days when the glacial theory for the drift had only begun to make its way. Mr. Wright studied his immediate environment until he became certain that it was the work of a sub-glacial stream. His residence at Andover was also on a prominent glacial feature known as Indian Ridge. It had been popularly attributed to the work of the Indians, but Mr. Wright thought differently and in 1873 in the Bulletin of the Essex Institute he published his first geologic paper. It covered only three or four pages, but it interpreted the ridge as wholly of glacial origin and predicted the finding of its continuation for many miles to the north. His paper inspired observers, and within a few months he had several invitations to visit localities in line with Indian Ridge. These he followed up and established the explanation which he had suggested. These early radical interpretations of the drift and of many of its forms earned the approval of Asa Gray and Clarence King, and this placed Wright’s work in the front rank. He collaborated later with J. P. Leslie and with H. C. Lewis, of the Pennsylvania Geologic Survey Ree SOR Neale Ie else a ae RP SAP RAR NASAL AEs ARAL TO 5 ated) and with G. H. Cook, of the New Jersey Geologic Survey. He traced the moraines and ancient ice borders across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, mostly in the eighties, and published in 1890 Bulletin 58 of the U. 5. G. 5., summarizing his results. In later years he studied glaciers and the products of their work in Alaska, Greenland, the British Isles, Holland, Belgium, and France, and journeyed com- pletely across Siberia and Russia in his quest for glacial phenomena. These researches gave him the basal material upon which he built the superstructure which made him one of the first men of his age in glaciology. His field studies were not confined to the work of glaciers, for from the earliest to the end, he was intensely interested in the remains of man that he found associated with the drift. This material was sought and found in many places where he studied the drift itself. Nor did such interest and research stop with man and the drift, for he has been an archeologist in all his travels in Italy, Greece, Palestine, in the region east of the Caspian and in his long journey to Siberia, as well as in the classic fields of western Europe. One of his books deals with the ice age in North America; another, the antiquity of man, and a third, man and the glacial period. These two lines of research were inseparably connected. While his ministry covered but twenty years and his educational work technically but twenty-six, his research work covered his whole life. His educational work began with the district school before he came to college, was continued in several terms of vacation teaching while in college, and was taken up in his own seminary about twenty - years after his graduation. Many of those who were in his classes or knew him as a teacher speak of his kindness of heart, breadth of scholar- ship, and, above all, his keen interest in the students. He was always looking for the best in them, suggesting lines of work for which he thought they were adapted, and was continually rejoicing in the suc- cesses of young people whom he knew. The second professorship at Oberlin which was given to Prof. Wright in the seminary was established by a friend of the institution who stipulated that the holder should teach but half the year and travel the other half. It was this arrangement which opened up to Mr. Wright the opportunity of travel in Europe in 1892, Greenland in 1894, and his round-the-world trip in 1900-1901. In this latter trip, covering nearly 30,000 miles, he sailed from the United States west coast and after spending some time in Japan, visited Vladivostok and Man- churia, Peking and Kalgan, and made the long journey by rail across Siberia to Irkutsk. From here he journeyed southward and westward through Merv and Samarkand, crossing the Caspian to Tiflis and the Caucasus Mountains, and then proceeded to Constantinople, Palestine, Egypt and southern Europe. On this trip he was royally received in Japan and Russia, and gave a number of lectures in several places. In fact, Prof. Wright has always had the ability to give an entertaining, inspiring and instructive address. No record of his platform performance has been found, but it is well known that he was always sought for public addresses on all kinds of occasions, both in his home town and far away. Within a few months of his death he spoke to a learned audience for an hour perfectly logically and without notes. He seemed to have the faculty of marshalling in his public addresses a wealth of information, all organized and laid away for any sudden emergency. While not eloquent, he spoke with convincing directness and clearness. His hearers knew he was thoroughly convinced of what he said. He never trifled with an audience, but took them fully into his confidence. As an author and publisher Mr. Wright achieved more than many men who do nothing else. His published papers number some five hundred and fifty and his volumes sixteen, some of which were trans- lated into foreign languages, and at least one copyrighted in England. His ‘Ice Age in North America” has been through six editions and is considered a standard work in its field. Other books have been through more than one edition. His “‘Story of My Life and Work,” published in 1916, sums up many of the conclusions in science and theology which he had reached through his years of study and thought. It also gives a fairly complete bibliography of his papers, the first of which is entitled “Ground of Confidence in Inductive Reasoning,” and appeared in 1871, when he was thirty-three years old. But four titles more appear in the next four years; then they come faster, and eight or ten, sometimes fifteen a year flow from his facile pen. Not a year passed but saw papers or book reviews added to his voluminous bibliography, and the last paper was prepared during his last sickness, which was on him for some thirty days. Beside the papers and books which he prepared for the press himself, he was editor and really the life and heart of the magazine ‘‘ Bibliotheca Sacra”’ for thirty-eight years, beginning in 18838. In the year 1900, he with two or three other men in Washington founded a second magazine, “Records of the Past,’? which continued for twelve years, and then after the publication of a very complete index, was merged in another magazine. In music, too, he had an active interest. A member of the Oberlin Musical Union for almost forty years, he sang in many oratorio concerts. He brought back and put into shape for American use a number of Russian songs, and was one of three active editors for a very excellent church hymnal. A cursory glance through the list of his papers reveals the marvelous range of his studies—apologetics, religion, theology and philosophy, politics, history, and biography, commerce, geography, travel, and aesthetics, besides his two great fields of glaciology and archeology. Some of his papers were conciliatory, some controversial; a few were critical, most of them constructive. Professor Wright was fraternal in spirit and delighted in the fellow- ship and stimulus of co-workers, yet he has never amassed memberships in learned societies. His affiliations were as follows: Fellow, American Association for the Advancement of Science. Fellow, Geological Society of America. Boston Society of Natural History. Fellow, Essex Institute. Ohio Archeologic and Historical Society, (Pres., 1908). Fellow, Ohio Academy of Science, (Pres., 1899). In later years he has been unable to attend our meetings annually, but his presence was always profitable and stimulating to the Academy. Prof. Wright was many-talented, and hence many sided in his interests and pursuits. The amount of his work reveals both his unusual capacity for turning it off and his great intellectual ability. He had a mind in rare degree persistently active, versatile and pro- ductive, and he succeeded in gaining interesting and notable attention to his writings and lectures in these many fields, because he made real contributions at many points and always had an attractive way of stating his conclusions. In his writing and public utterance he vigorously defended his conclusions, not from pride or love of controversy, but because he believed in them and because .his conscience would not let him do otherwise. Whether in his familiar surroundings or in strange lands far afield, he was alert and resourceful, companionable and appre- ciative. No one can say that Professor Wright slighted or mistreated him or intentionally misjudged him. He was quiet, unobtrusive, but genial, winsome, and broad-minded. His clear-cut features, gracious dignity, and unfailing courtesy always made him a distin- guished figure in whatever group he stood. He was sympathetic and straight-forward, simple and direct as a child in all his dealings with his fellow men, so guileless that he often could be imposed upon. He was honest and conscientious to the last degree himself and was loathe to believe anyone could be otherwise. He was deeply religious by nature, a believer in reason in religion, and faith in science, and out of this combination came his power to make his greatest contributions to the thought of his generation. Buoyant and hopeful, always looking forward, his life was full of happi- ness and achievement, and ran strong to the end. He was the same companion, whether in the privacy of his own home or on a difficult field trip or in a formal public gathering. As he will be missed in scientific and theologic circles, so will he be missed at home in the community for which he always thought and worked. Such a man could not fail to be an inspiration and a tower of strength to his fellows who were permitted to know him. 248 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science CHARLES BROOKOVER. By HERBERT OSBORN AND FRANCIS L. LANDACRE. (This sketch was not presented at the meeting, but prepared later for publication in the Proceedings. ) In the death of Professor Charles Brookover, which occurred at Louisville, Kentucky, March 17, 1922, the Ohio Academy has lost one of its distinguished members, one who for many years was associated in the scientific and educational work of the state and contributed worthily to the academy. He was born in Adams County, Ohio, March 11, 1870, and obtained his collegiate education at Ohio University, at Athens, obtaining the degree of B. Ped. and M. S. from that institution. He carried graduate work at Columbia University and University of Chicago, receiving his Ph. D. degree from the latter institution in 1910. He taught in Colorado College, Buchtel College at Akron, Medical Department of University of Arkansas, and in the University of Louisville, Louisville, Kentucky. Especially while at Akron, where he taught from 1901 to 1913, he was active in the scientific work of the state, attended our meetings with great regularity and was particularly active in the entertainment of the Academy at its Akron meeting in 1910. He spent a number of summers at the Lake Laboratory and was one of the most esteemed members of the staff, serving as Acting Director during the summer of 1914. He was a man of high ideals and a most cheerful, helpful disposition, and his death is mourned by a host of intimate friends and scientific associates. His research work was largely upon neurology of the lower verte- brates; and in this field he was a recognized authority. His papers, while not numerous, were always thorough and conscientiously worked out. Very little if any, of his work will need revision. He was cautious about propounding hypothesis and always preferred to accumulate a mass of carefully verified facts and then leave the ultimate interpretation to some one else. He was not timid in drawing conclusions, but realized fully that the great need, especially in comparative neurology, is a large body of well established facts from which, finally, safe conclusions may be drawn. He was quite willing to contribute less than his colleagues provided that his contributions could be considered safe and as far as possible, final. What he might have done if he had been in robust health is uncertain. With a serious handicap in health, however, his contributions, especially to comparative neurology, are. notable and a matter of pride to his friends and colleagues.

The report of the Executive Committee was received as follows and ordered filed. March 30, 1923. To the Ohio Academy of Science: A meeting of the Executive Committee was held in Columbus, October 21, 1922. All members were present. At this meeting the invitation to hold the Thirty-third Annual Meeting at Oberlin College was accepted, and the meeting was set for March 30 and 31. The Secretary was instructed to arrange, if practicable, for the publication in the Ohio Journal of Science of a brief obituary notice of Mr. Emerson McMillin, in anticipation of a more adequate memorial to be presented at this meeting. The late appearance of this notice (in the January-February number) was unavoidable, because of the readjustment of the dates of publication of the Journal. The Secretary presented a letter of June 10 from President Charles D. Walcott, of the Spencer Fullerton Baird Memorial, announcing plans for the celebration of the one-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Spencer Fullerton Baird, February 3, 1923, and inviting the Academy to designate a representative on the national committee. The letter closes with these paragraphs: “Among the suggestions that have been made for a permanent national memorial are (1) a bust, statue, mural or open-air fountain, or bronze mural tablet to be provided by voluntary subscriptions and erected in the grounds of the Smithsonian Institution or the National Zoological Park, and (2) a fishery museum or exhibit, with public aquarium, embracing both the scientific and applied features of fishery problems, to be established by Congress under the auspices of the Smithsonian Institution. “Tt has been suggested also that there be established a Baird Memorial Medal to be awarded periodically to persons performing noteworthy original or meritorious work in science, and that there be published during 1923, preferably under the auspices of the National Museum or the Smithsonian Institution, a memorial volume to be made up of original papers on scientific subjects con- tributed by Baird’s associates, colleagues, and immediate followers. Thirty-third Annual Meeting 213 “In advising me that your organization will be represented on the national Baird memorial committee, will you kindly communicate your views on the general subject of the memorial?’’ The action of the Executive Committee is shown in the following quotation from the reply to Dr. Walcott’s letter: “Our committee was enthusiastically in favor of such a memorial and appointed Dr. Raymond C. Osburn, of Ohio State University, as our representa- tive. As to the particular form of memorial, the consensus of opinion was in favor of the fountain or aquarium, rather than the other alternatives suggested in your letter. Dr. Osburn was, however, left without formal instructions.”’ On the suggestion of the Treasurer, it was voted to allow to each new member the option of receiving the back numbers of the Ohio Journal of Science from January to the time of election or of com- mencing the Journal with the following January, as he may prefer. A second meeting of the Committee was held in Oberlin on March 29, 1923. All members present. In accordance with the instructions of the last Annual Meeting, the Committee has prepared a series of amendments to the Constitution, establishing the Committee on State Parks and Conservation as a standing committee of nine members, and providing for the election of three members each year for a term of three years. These amendments will be presented for adoption later in the session. The expiration of the term of office of the committee membership was determined by lot, as follows: Herbert Osburn, Chairman, 1925; E. Lucy Braun, 1924; J. E. Carman, 1924; Bruce Fink, 1926; E. L. Fullmer, 1925; E. R. Hayhurst, 1926; F. H. Herrick, 1925; C. G. Shatzer, 1924; E. N. Transeau, 1926. The Committee voted to recommend that the Academy heartily endorse the efforts of the Ohio College Association toward the securing of uniformity in date of the spring vacation of the colleges of Ohio, as facilitating attendance at meetings of the Ohio College Association, Ohio Academy of Science, and other societies consisting largely of college men. The Committee also voted to recommend to the Academy an amend- ment of the By-Laws providing an annual honorarium of one hundred dollars for the Secretary, this honorarium to include expenses for clerical assistance. Sixteen applications for membership have been approved, subject to final ratification by the present meeting. Respectfully submitted, EDWARD L. RIceE, Secretary. For the Committee. Report of the Publication Committee. The following report of the Publication Committee was received and ordered filed. The Annual Report of the Thirty-second Meeting, Proceedings, Vol. VII, Part 7, contained 36 pages and was published March 1, 1923. 274 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science The report minus the membership list was also published in the Ohio Journal of Science 23 : 1-24, 1923. . Respectfully submitted, H. C. Sampson, Chairman. Report of the Library Committee. The following report of the Library Committee was received and ordered filed. March 29, 19238. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Library Committee begs to report that all the duties devolving upon it have been discharged as promptly as possible. The sale of publications during the year amounted to $23.45. This amount has been turned over to the Treasurer of the Academy. The Proceedings of the Thirty-second Annual Meeting, 1922, were received from the printer on March 12, 1923. Copies were mailed immediately to all persons on the membership roll, and to all institutions on the exchange list. The publications which have been received on exchange have been added to the others previously filed in the University Library. The University Library would. like to see more use made of these exchanges and other scientific sets by the members of the Academy who are non- resident in Columbus. The University Library annually renews its offer to lend to the members of the Academy, through their home libraries, the scientific publications needed in their research work. The writer of this report desires to call the attention of the Academy to Section 3 in House Bill No. 400, “‘A bill relative to state recognition of the Ohio Academy of Science”? now before the 85th General Assembly. On page 2, lines 28, 29 and 30, read as follows: “All exchanges received shall be kept available to the citizens of the state through the Ohio State Library, or such other channel as may be determined.” na While not wanting to say anything to affect the cordial relations existing between the Ohio State Library and the Ohio State University Library, yet be it said that if an individual library is to be specified in the bill, it ought to be the library which is at present, and has been for eight years handling the exchanges of the Academy, namely, the Ohio State University Library. If the bill should be made to read that exchanges were to be kept at such a place as may be determined by the Academy, no objection could be made, because the question of the disposition of its property is a right inherent in the organization. Furthermore, it may not be known to the members of the Academy, but the facts are that the State Library and the University Library are dividing the field between the two institutions, whereby the technical and scientific literature is to be developed by the University Library. In accordance with this plan, it would naturally fall to the University Library to handle and make available any scientific literature received by the Academy. Thirty-third Annual Meeting 215 Section 3 of this bill also needs redrafting, especially as it relates to the distribution of the publications of the Academy. As drafted, it pro- vides that one copy of the Proceedings shall be sent to each public library and museum, university, college, normal school and first grade high school. It also provides that one copy of the Ohio Journal of Science shall be sent to each university and college. Then, it provides that ‘‘not less than one hundred copies of each publication shall be distributed through the Ohio State Library.”’ Since the provision is made specifically for the distribution of the publications, to whom is the State Library to send its one hundred copies? Furthermore, the Academy does not control the Ohio Journal. of Science. If such is the case, can this bill, which relates to the Academy, provide for the distribution of the Journal, for the handling of its exchanges, and for grant of one hundred copies to the Ohio State Library? The Ohio State University has been paying to the Ohio Journal of Science $500.00 a year, for which sum 250 copies of each issue have been allotted the University Library for exchanges. Under the proposed legis- lation, some complications are likely to occur if such exchanges are to be deposited in the Ohio State Library. These statements are made with the friendliest of feelings, but with the purpose of pointing out some features in Section 3 which need more study, in order to keep the Academy from difficulties into which it may unknowingly place itself. This bill was introduced into the House by Mr. Riggs on February 21st; was read the second time on February 28th, and then referred to the Committee on State and Economic Betterment. It was reported out on March 23d. If the Academy feels that these points are of importance, it may be proper to instruct its Legislature Committee to seek the desired changes in the bill, either as amendments on the floor, or in the Senate committee, should the bill pass the House. Respectfully submitted, By C. W. REEDER, For the Library Committee. Report of the Trustees of the Research Fund. The following report of the Trustees of the Research Fund was received and referred to the Auditing Committee, whose report is appended. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Trustees of the Research Fund submit the following Report for the period from March 29th, 1922, to March 30th, 1923.

Report of the Committee on State Parks and Conservation. The following report of the Committee on State Parks and Conservation was received and ordered filed. To the Ohio Academy of Science: Your Committee can not report any very extensive activity during the past year, but there are several matters of interest which it will be proper to mention. The final acquisition and dedication of the Roosevelt Park in southern Ohio establishes an extensive and very desirable tract as a permanent game refuge in which we can be assured of the preservation of the natural conditions; and it would appear a very satisfactory arrangement for control between the Fish and Game Commission and State Forester, both of whom, no doubt, will accept suggestions con- cerning biological features that may be of service. Under the Silver Bill the State Forester has secured additional tracts for State Forestry purposes, and these, of course, are distinct advances in the matter of preservation of the native flora and fauna. Lhirty-tmrad Annual Meeting 200 The present Legislature has enacted or will probably enact a Bill accepting the Bryan farm near Yellow Springs, a tract of something over 500 acres, which was given to the State for preservation as a game refuge, and experiment farm, and under the conditions provided in the present act, will doubtless furnish an additional valuable tract for the preservation of natural conditions. The transfer of a tract of fifty-seven acres, including the Harness Mounds from the United States Government to the State, under the control of the State Archeological Society, gives us another interesting tract as a public park. Failure of the National Congress to pass the bill to provide for national game reserves, which would have made possible the preserva- tion of swamp areas and other suitable breeding grounds for migratory fowl, makes it, of course, more desirable that the State should set aside a number of such tracts within our boarders for the purpose of con- serving wild life dependent upon such conditions. It seems therefore that one of the early movements of the Academy should be to secure, through the Fish and Game Commission or such other channel as may be available, certain reservations of this character. The waterways project now being considered by the National Government, which would provide a waterway from the Lake to the Ohio River, is a matter of very distinct interest to the members of the Academy, especially in reference to its features of conservation and utilization of water resources in the State. Such a waterway with its reservoir system would make some very important additions to the water areas and utilization, and your Committee will endeavor to keep in close touch with progress in this line. Respectfully submitted, HERBERT OSBORN, Chairman, Francis H. HERRICK, E. N. TRANSEAU, J. ERNEST CARMAN, C. G. SHATZER. Report of the Committee on Legislation. The following report, presented by the Committee on Legislation, was received as a report of progress, and the Com- mittee was continued. In view of the questions raised in the Report of the Library Committee with reference to the bill for State recognition of the Academy, Mr. Reeder was added to the Committee on Legislation. The Committee is able to report that a bill for the recognition of the Ohio Academy has been introduced in the Legislature, and two members of the Committee had a conference with the Committee to which the bill was referred. It received a very cordial consideration, and so far as this Committee is concerned, it appears that the bill will 278 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science have cordial support. Just what fate it may have in the House we cannot say. Furthermore, the bill will have to be acted upon by the Senate, and considering the lateness of the session, we are somewhat in doubt as to the outcome. The bill as drafted was changed in two particulars from the bill as agreed upon in the Academy, but the changes made, we believe, will not defeat the objects of the proposed relation to the State. If passed, it should enable the Academy to extend its usefulness and to secure modifications 1f necessary 1n the future. We recommend that the Committee be continued or a new Commit tee appointed with authority to adjust the constitution and make any arrangement of details necessary in the carrying out of the provisions. of the bill. Respectfully submitted, HERBERT OSBORN, Chairman, T. C. MENDENHALL, W. H. ALEXANDER, Epwarbp L. RICE, Maynarp M. METCALF. Election of Officers.

The first business session was called to order by President Mather at 9:45 A. M. on Friday, April 18, 1924, and an adjourned session was held at 9:00 A. M. on the following day. The President announced the appointment of the following committees for the meeting: Committee on Membership—Dwight M. DeLong, Lewis H. . Tiffany, Raymond J. Seymour, Harold E. Burtt, Frederick C. Blake. Commuitee on Resolution—Albert P. Weiss, E. L. Moseley, Edgar N. Transeau. Committee on Necrology.—Herbert Osborn, The following Auditing Committee was elected by the Acad- emy: Geo. D. Hubbard and H. C. Beardslee. The following Nominating Committee was elected by the ballot of the Academy: Raymond C. Osburn, Lewis H. Tiffany, Geo. D. Hubbard, Raymond J. Seymour, Harold) Ex Sirte Frederick C. Blake. Report of the Secretary. The following report by the Secretary was received and ordered filed. Cotumesus, O., April 18, 1924. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The year now closing marks a change, as you know, in the Secre- tariate of the Academy and your Secretary has the distinct conviction that he would be untrue to the real feelings of the members of the Academy, certainly to his own, if he were to allow this fact to pass unnoticed, even if such a thing were possible. Of course all present miss from its accustomed place the genial face of the former Secretary, Dr. Edward L. Rice. During the eleven years of faithful service Dr. Rice not only made a real contribution to the Academy but made himself so useful, so helpful, not to say indispensable, that in the minds of many of us the names ‘‘Ohio Academy of Science” and “ Edward L. Rice, Secretary”? are almost synonymous. But words are unnecessary: “His works do praise him.” It is only fair to say, also, that the work of the former Secretary did not end with the election of his successor, since upon him fell the duty, for example, of clearing up the odds and ends after the Annual Meeting at Oberlin in March, of preparing the Annual Report for the printer, of notifying newly-elected officers, members and fellows, of sending out copies of resolutions passed at the last Annual Meeting, and of prepar- ing a report of the meeting for Science, etc. It was therefore early in July before the complete and formal transfer of the archives was made Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting 305 and even then the former Secretary was not entirely released, as we have freely availed ourselves of his generous offer to lend assistance at any time and in any way possible. Furthermore it should be stated that the Secretariate was turned over in an excellent, up-to-date condition. The first item of more than routine importance to claim the attention of the new Secretary was the publication in pamphlet form of a memoir of the late Emerson McMillin, referred to on page 281 of the Proceed- ings of the Thirty-third Annual Meeting. Some 50 copies of this memoir were published by the Academy and. distributed to the family and selected friends of Mr. McMillin. The next item of general interest to the Academy was an invitation from the Ohio Forestry Association, through its Secretary, Prof. Edmund Secrest, inviting the members of the Academy to participate, as guests of the Association, in a field meeting at the John Bryan Park on September 21 and 22, 1923. This invitation was passed on to the members of the Academy in a letter dated September 8, 1923. Several members of the Academy availed themselves of this very courteous invitation, much to their pleasure and delight, and one or two of our members appeared on the program put on by the Association. Owing to the sudden and unexpected passing away of our most distinguished member, the late Dr. T. C. Mendenhall, on March 22, 1924, the Secretary assumed the authority to call Dr. E. L. Rice over the long distance telephone and request him to represent the Academy at the funeral services held at Ravenna. This he consented to do and did. This action has since been approved by the Executive Committee. The routine work of the office has been about as usual and very considerable; details have been taken care of as promptly and as efficiently as possible under the circumstances. The generous, helpful cooperation of all the officers of the Academy has been a source of real inspiration throughout the year, for which hearty thanks are due and hereby recorded. Witiiam H.

The following report of the Executive Committee was received and ordered filed. Cortumpsvs, O., April 18, 1924. To the Ohio Academy of Science: A meeting of the Executive Committee was held in Columbus on November 9, 1923, with all members present except the President, who because of absence from the State could not attend the meeting. By invitation Vice-President Barrows and Prof. Raymond C. Osburn were present, the former presiding over the meeting. A letter was read from President Mather, extending greetings and good wishes and suggesting among other things that some action should be taken regarding the expenses of Prof. Herbert Osborn as the duly accredited representative of the Academy to the Leidy Commemorative Meeting to be held in Philadelphia on December 6, 1923. Thereupon the committee instructed the Treasurer to reimburse Professor Osborn for all necessary expenses incurred in this connection. Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting 307 The Secretary was requested and authorized to make such arrange- ments as might seem wise in the establishing of temporary headquarters for the visiting members of the Ohio Academy at the annual meeting of of the American Association for the Advancement of Science to be held in Cincinnati the latter part of December, 1923. This action was very satisfactorily carried out through the generous cooperation of members of the Academy living in Cincinnati. At this meeting of the committee it was decided to accept the invi- tation of the Ohio State University to hold the Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting of the Academy at that institution. It was also agreed that the time should be ‘‘very near Easter’’ but the exact date was left for the Secretary to determine after some further investigations. A second meeting of the Executive Committee was held in Colum- bus at the office of the Secretary last evening with all members present. At this meeting forty applications for membership in the Academy were approved subject to final ratification by the Academy. The Secretary placed before the committee a cordial invitation from the Faculty of the College of Wooster, heartily seconded by the staff of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station, to hold the next Annual Meeting of the Academy at Wooster. The committee decided to refer the invitation to the Academy for such action as it may see fit to take. The following letter from Dr. Burton E. Livingston, Permanent Secretary, American Association for the Advancement of Science, written in reply to a letter inviting Dr. Livingston or some other officer of the A. A. A. S. to be present at the Annual Meeting of this Academy, was laid before the committee, viz.: WASHINGTON, D. C., March 18, 1924. DEAR MR. ALEXANDER:—I have your letter of March 10 and have read it with much interest. It is the plan of the American Association to have, whenever possible, a representative of the Association in attendance at each annual meeting of the affiliated academies. This was decided at the Cincinnati meeting. But the whole question of the arrangements with affiliated academies has recently come up again for discussion and we think it will be best not to begin naming official representatives for academy meetings till the Executive Committee has had opportunity to define the attitude of the Association in regard to affiliated academies in a manner clearer than has thus far been done. We are making a serious study of the whole problem of academy affiliation and it may be possible that some improvements can be introduced. When we do begin to send rep- resentatives to the academy meetings, those representatives should naturally have the whole matter clearly in mind, and that could not be the case at present. There will doubtless be important matters to be discussed with the several academies. I hope you will understand from this why I feel that we should postpone till a later time our beginning to name official representatives for the academy meetings. I should like nothing better than to come to your meeting myself and I hope to be able to do so next year, perhaps. Thanking you, and with all good wishes for the great success of your meeting, Yours very sincerely, Burton E. LIVINGSTON, Permanent Secretary. 308 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science The following communication was received from Charles E. Deam, President of the Indiana Academy of Science, and referred to the Academy for action, viz.: B.LuFFTon, INp., April 9, 1924. DeaR Mr. ALEXANDER:—I am sorry I shall not be able to attend the meeting of the Ohio Academy of Science April 18 and 19. I wish if you do so, you would extend a most cordial invitation to all members of the Ohio Academy of Science to meet with the Indiana Academy of Science at their spring meeting to be held at Marengo, Ind., May 15-17. At this meeting those who wish may go through the Marengo Cave at Marengo, and on the second day may go through Wyandotte Cave, about 13 miles distant. The field trips will be very interesting to the botanist and the geologist. The leader of the botanical section is well acquainted with the area and will show such rare plants as Isoetes Engelmanii, Smilax Bona-nox, and many others that are extremely local. The geologists will be led by one who has walked the entire region and is well acquainted with it. Come in hiking clothes. Yours most cordially, Cuas. C. DEAM. An invitation was read from the President and Secretary of The Franklin Institute, Philadelphia, Pa., to participate in the celebration on September 17, 1924, of the Centenary of the signing of the Act of Incorporation of the Institute, by the appointment of a representative; this invitation is also referred to the Academy for action. An invitation was also read from the British Association for the Advancement of Science, inviting members of this Academy to attend its Annual Meeting to be held in Toronto from August 6 to 13, 1924. Your Executive Committee suggests the names of Dr. A. E. Waller and Dr. Edward L. Rice as delegates to this meeting. Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM H. ALEXANDER, For the Committee. Report of the Publication Committee. The following report of the Publication Committee was received and ordered filed: The Annual Report of the Thirty-third Meeting, Proceedings, Vol. VII, Part 8, contained 29 pages and was published November 26, 1923. The report minus the membership list was also published in the Ohio Journal of Science: 23: 209-234, 1923. Respectfully submitted, H. C. Sampson, Chairman. Report of the Library Committee. The following report of the Library Committee was received and ordered filed: Cotumpsus, O., April 18, 1924. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Library Committee begs to report that all duties devolving upon it have been discharged as promptly as possible. Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting 309 The sale of publications during the year amounted to $37.97. This amount has been turned over to the Treasurer of the Academy. The Proceedings of the Thirty-third Annual Meeting, 1923, were received from the printer in December and copies were mailed to all members of the Academy and to the exchanges early in the year 1924. The publications received by the Academy on exchange have been added to the sets filed in the University Library. The scientific sections of the library have been increased annually by the purchase of many important sets and the hope is expressed that more and more the University Library will serve as the center of scholarly research by members of the Academy. Respectfully submitted, C. W. REEDER, For the Library Committee. Report of the Trustees of the Research Fund. The Trustees reported, orally, that owing to the very recent death of their Chairman, Dr. T. C. Mendenhall, who had full charge of the books and records pertaining to the work of the Board of Trustees and usually prepared the report, it had been impossible for the other members to prepare a written report in time for this meeting, or to work out the details of the plan recommended by Dr. Mendenhall and endorsed by the Acad- emy at the last Annual Meeting (see page 282, Proceedings, Thirty-third Annual Meeting) regarding the investment of the Research Fund and the use of the income therefrom. The Board requested another year in which to prepare a report. The request was granted. A preliminary examination of the bank accounts, made soon after the April, 1924, meeting of the Academy, shows the fol- lowing: Bills to the amount of $126.36 were paid subsequent to April 1, 1923, and additions from interest on bonds amounting to $27.62 have been credited, leaving a cash balance of $724.82, or a total resource with bonds of $1,324.82.) In this connection the Secretary read the following letter written by Dr. Mendenhall only three days before his death: RAvENNA, O., March 19, 1924. My Dear Mr. ALEXANDER: Yours of the 17th has reached me together with another communi- cation from you of an earlier date, which I found awaiting me on my arrival from Columbus on last Saturday night. You are perhaps by this time aware that I have been in the City of Columbus for the last two weeks, the victim of the ingenuity and indefatigable zeal of the doctors, 310 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science who have been doing everything that they can for me, or rather, I should say to me and eventually for me. However, the investigation with all that has gone along with it has fatigued me very much and I was glad to reach home Saturday night. Now this has been a painful and possibly serious affair with me, and therefore, you will see that I must at once abandon all attempts to do anything for the Academy of- Science for some time to come. I regret this very much as there are several things which should be looked after in regard to the Emerson McMillin Fund. Not one single transaction has taken place so the financial situation is precisely as I have reported plus, of course, the income from our invested funds, so it will be very easy to determine approximately what amount will be available on the 19th of April. I hope to be able to prepare something in the form of a report by that time. Yours faithfully, T. C. MENDENHALL. Upon motion duly made and carried, the Trustees were instructed to conserve the income from the McMillin Fund during the ensuing year. Report of the Committee on State Parks and Conservation. The Chairman of the Committee, Prof. Herbert Osborn, stated that the committee had not succeeded in having any formal meetings as it is made up, very properly, of members scattered through the State and there had been no convenient occasion on which to get the members ‘together. It is of interest to report, however, that there has been distinct progress in the matter of reservations for park, game refuge and forestry purposes which have materially extended the areas devoted to these purposes and which we may count as distinct advances. The Bryan State Park which includes part of the Clifton Gorge and which was mentioned in our last report as likely to be finally accepted by the State has now definitely become State property and is administered by the State Experiment Station, so that it may be counted as permanently devoted to park and reservation purposes and its scenic, biologic and geologic fea- tures preserved for future students. At a meeting of the State Forestry Society last September, to which our members were invited, as pointed out in the Secretary’s Report, we had an opportunity to observe the conditions and possibilities there under very favorable cir- cumstances. Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting 311 The Roosevelt Game Refuge, now embracing some 15,000 acres, was dedicated last fall and is already proving its value in stimulating interest and activity in the preservation of the native plants and animals of the region. Additional tracts have been secured for the state forests and these have distinct value as areas in which conditions will serve to perpetuate our native fauna and flora. The park system of Cleveland, which was visited with the kind guidance of Professor Fullmer, gives very encouraging evidence of a broad plan for the development of adequate park areas including some remarkably fine natural scenery and the preservation of natural conditions for plant and animal life. The publication of the Naturalists Guide by the Ecological Society of America and for which the Ohio areas have been very carefully listed by Dr. E. Lucy Braun, is expected in the near future and will make available to our members a detailed list of tracts now reserved or which should be made into reservations when possible. There is a manifest interest in this subject in many of the states and great progress has been made in some of our sister states, notably New York and Iowa, and we may expect a growing appreciation of its importance and efforts of the Academy should be continued in order that the scientific aspects may receive proper attention. This statement by the chairman of the committee was received as a report of progress and the committee continued. Report of the Committee on Legislation. The chairman of the Committee made an oral statement to the effect that in as much as the General Assembly failed to pass the bill (H. B. No. 400) that was before it at the time of our last meeting and as there has been no session of the Assem- bly since that time, the committee has not been able to do anything more than ‘‘watchful waiting.’: This statement was received as a report of progress and the committee continued. .

Report of the Committee on Necrology. The following report of the Committee on Necrology was adopted by the Academy and ordered filed: MEMORIAL TO Dr. THOMAS CORWIN MENDENHALL. The Ohio Academy of Science mourns today a trusted leader and former president, Thomas Corwin Mendenhall. He was eminent in Physical Science as an investigator, a teacher, an expositor and an organizer. The Franklin Institute of Philadelphia in granting to him in 1918 the Franklin medal, ‘‘founded for the recognition of those workers in physical science, * * * * * whose efforts have done most to advance a knowledge of physical science”’ made their award “‘in recog- nition of his fruitful and indefatigable labors in phsycial research, particularly his contribution to our knowledge of physical constants and electrical standards.”’ This was one of a long series of similar awards, crowning his fifty years of leadership in Science. Born at Hanoverton, Ohio, October 4, 1841, and living till March 22, 1924, his life covered one of the most eventful periods of human history and his scientific career was coincident with many of the most striking developments of modern science.’ 316 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science His earliest scientific paper was published in 1870. For the succeed- ing thirty years his contributions to the leading scientific periodicals were frequent and important. The Proceedings of the A. A. A. S., the American Journal of Science, Popular Science Monthly, Science, and the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Servey, were principal avenues of pub- lication. As the first professor of physics of the Ohio State University, the pioneer work of equipping and putting into service a laboratory for instruction and research fell to him. He began this work in 1873, the first man elected to the faculty of the newly organized institution. In 1878 he accepted the task of organizing the Physics department of the Imperial Universtiy of Japan at Tokio. He also founded the meteorological observatory there. His research work in Japan included careful measurements of the gravitation constant at Tokio and on the summit of Fujiyama, a determination of the density of the earth and some very accurate work with a Rutherford grating on the lines of the sun’s spectrum. The celebrated astronomer, Professor Young of Prince- ton, pronounced these results as extraordinary. He also helped found the Seismological Society of Japan, which has done more than any other organization to make seismology an exact science. In 1881 he returned to this country and resumed his work at Ohio State University. In the following year he organized the Ohio State Weather Service. His activity in seismology continued after his return. In 1884 he became professor in the U. S. Signal Corps at Washington and developed instruments for the study of earthquakes. He also started C. F. Marvin, a former student of his in Ohio and the present distinguished Head of the U. 5S. Weather Bureau, in this same line of work. Dr. Mendenhall also began at this time an elaborate study of atmospheric electricity. In 1886 he became president of the Rose Polytechnic Institute. Though a capable administrator he somehow kept up his scientific inves- tigations and published four or five scientific papers during his three years presidency. The National Academy of Sciences also published a large volume on his work during this period in atmospheric electricity. In 1889 he was made Superintendent of the U. 5. Geodetic Survey. He here developed the famous ‘‘ Mendenhall half-second pendulum,” which for more than 25 years continued to do extraordinarily accurate work in fifteen Survey stations, and is still relied upon for the most exact results. One of these instruments was carried to Alaska, repeat- edly landed in a surf boat for observations and when brought back to Washington gave the same value for ‘“‘g”’ that it had given before the journey, to one part in 5,000,000. The reports and bulletins of the Survey contain many of his papers between 1889 and 1894. He was also made Superintendent of Weights and Measures and achieved the important task of putting our national system of weights and measures upon a Metric basis. In 1893 he was one of five eminent electricians (chosen by mail ballot of 150 leading electrical men) to represent the United States at the International Electrical Congress at Chicago. Differences of opinion Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting 317 developed there threatened to make agreement upon definitions of the principal electrical units impossible. The Franklin Institute now exhibits a sheet of paper on which Dr. Mendenhall one evening wrote down definitions of the ampere, the volt and the ohm. These he pre- sented next morning to the Chamber of delegates; and the definitions finally adopted are practically identical with his penciled memorandum. In 1894 he began a seven year service as president of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute. His work as an investigator and as an organizer of research was indeed notable, but he also had a most unusual gift for making the results of scientific work intelligible and interesting to popular audi- ences. As a consequence he has been for many years repeatedly called upon for memorial and dedicatory addresses. In 1892 he gave a Convo- cation Address at Johns Hopkins on ‘‘ Measurements of Precision, con- sidered in Their Relation to the Condition of Man,” and the same year prepared the principal address for the dedication of the new Ryerson Laboratory of the University of Chicago. He gave two series of lectures at the famous Lowell Institute in Boston, one in 1882 and one in 1892. Also lectures at Cooper Union, New York and in Philadelphia, Balti- more and Washington. In 1887 he was made a member of the National Academy of Sciences. In 1888 he was president of the American Asso- ciation for the Advancement of Science and won golden opinions as presiding officer of the Toronto Meeting. The next year he gave the retiring presidential address at Indianapolis. In 1894 he gave an address as retiring president of the Philosophical Society of Washington. Many of us here remember the delightful address he gave a few years ago as president of our own Ohio Academy of Science and his address on “Some Metrological Memories”’ before the Franklin Institute in 1918. His work has been recognized by the award of numerous decorations and medals. From the Paris Exposition in 1900 he received a medal for a monograph entitled ‘‘Scientific, Technical and Engineering Education in the United States,” from the Imperial Education Society of Japan in 1911 a gold medal. The same year he was decorated with the Order of Sacred Treasures, Japan. The receipt of the gold medal of the Franklin Institute has already been mentioned. These are but a few of the high points of achievement in a notable career in physical science. Mention has already been made of his pioneer work in equipping and developing the physical laboratory of the Ohio State University and - this is but a small part of his service to that institution. His wise selec- tion of equipment is shown in the fact that many of his early purchases are still giving good service on lecture table and in laboratory. His inspiring leadership of many of the early graduates, such as C. F. Marvin, W. C. Sabine; C. F. Scott, gave them a real start in their notable scientific careers. Professor Derby, one of his confreres on the faculty in the 80's, has written concerning his important part in determining the educational policy of the institution as follows: ‘In every faculty certain members are conceded leadership. It soon became plain to me that in questions of 318 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science common University concern we usually followed Dr. Mendenhall. In the field of our educational policy he exercised a directive mind. Other professors keen and able in their several subjects, were less attentive to the interests of the institution as a whole, or too individualistic to secure agreement with their suggestions. We were fully awake to the trend of various propositions brought before us and our discussions, though usually courteous, were earnest and now and then sharp in tone. A determination that the work of the institution should be exacting and of high quality was always evident, and any suspected failure to main- tain that quality occasioned sharp criticism. In the maintenance of these high standards. Dr. Mendenhall was foremost and his pungent wit seldom missed its mark. When later he withdrew from the University to enter a different scientific field his former colleagues deplored the loss of a beloved comrade, notable scientist and leader in education, but followed his brilliant career with affectionate admiration.”’ For many years following 1901 a break in health forced him to retire from active scientific and educational work. It was with great satisfac- tion therefore that some of us heard in June, 1919, that the Governor had appointed him to be a Trustee of the Ohio State University, on the first faculty of which he had served so efficiently many years before. His wise leadership soon caused his election as Chairman of the Board, a position which he greatly honored. His interest in the University never lagged and his faith in its future was evidenced in many ways. One of his last acts was to sign the diplomas for the graduates of the winter quarter of 1924. In the year 1920, on the occasion of the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University, Dr. Mendenhall gave to the University a sum of money for the endowment of a gold medal to be known as the Joseph Sullivant Medal. This medal is to be awarded at five year intervals to ‘‘that son or daughter of the University who shall have done or have completed, within the five-year period since the last award, a really notable piece of work in either the Liberal, the Fine, or the Mechanic Arts, the pure or applied Sciences, including the various branches of Engineering.’”’ The first award was made in 1923 to Mr. Benjamin Garver Lamme, of the Class of 1888. Dr. Mendenhall’s active connection with our Ohio Academy of Sciences began shortly after his return to Ohio in 1912 and he has been a devoted and helpful member interested in promoting its every interest. Almost as soon as he had acquired membership he was elected President, a quite unusual proceeding. This occurred at the Oberlin meeting, 1913, and he served for the year 1914 with such skill and enthusiasm as to give us all renewed courage and confidence in the mission of the Academy. As Trustee and for a number of years Chairman of the Research Fund of the Academy, serving from 1916 to his death, he was greatly interested in the use of the Academy funds for research and used rare discrimination in the assignment of its limited income to secure the largest benefits in the encouragement of research. He was particularly interested in the securing of larger support for the Academy and served most faithfully on the legislative committee Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting 319 which sought state support for Academy activities, especially for pub- lication of the results of scientific studies. He expressed the hope and it was one of his cherished projects that the Academy might sometime be provided with a suitable building for its permanent home and as a center of its activities and that it might serve in some very vital way for the promotion of the scientific functions of the state. His reeommen- dations and suggestions are matters of recent record and may well serve us in our future efforts for the development of scientific activities in the state. With all these relations the thing that we feel most deeply today is the friendly nature of his work among us. With a most unusual expe- rience in scientific development of more than a half century, a remark- able acquaintance with scientific work and workers he possessed such a broad appreciation of the work and accomplishment of others and such a friendly attitude toward even the most humble worker in the field of science that his presence and interest were a constant source of encouragement. With a multitude of honors and distinctions he was still one of the most democratic and unassuming of men. With a wealth of achievement, seldom equalled, to his credit he was ever modest in reference to the importance of his own contributions to science. He was a man whom we could admire and love, whose friendly greeting will be missed but whose memory will be cherished as representing the finest spirit of scientific devotion, achievement and fellowship. We have recorded our esteem and appreciation of his worth in such honors as it was in our power to give. We have now to place on record, as our lasting recognition of his leadership, this declaration of our high regard for his service, our great indebtedness for his many activities in the Acad- emy and our tribute to his memory as a friend and fellow worker. His fine accomplishments and inspiring personality will long remain with us as a beautiful memory. HERBERT OSBORN. Chairman, A. D. Cote, Wm. McPHERSON, Committee on Necrology. Meeting Place, 1925. President Mather laid before the Academy the invitation from Wooster Coliege to meet in Wooster next year. Mr. W. C. Devereaux stated that he was fully prepared and author- ized to extend an invitation to the Academy to meet in Cincin- nati next year but inasmuch as Wooster seemed to have a superior claim in that the Academy had never met in that city, he would withhold his invitation until some future time in favor of Wooster. Whereupon the Academy by vote declared itself in favor of accepting the invitation from Wooster College but left the final decision as to the next meeting place in the hands of the Executive Committee. 320 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Change in Name of Section. Upon motion of Mr. W. C. Devereaux, seconded by Prof. F. C. Blake, the Academy approved the changing of the name of the section heretofore known as The Section of Physics to that of The Section of Physical Sciences. At the suggestion of Dr. E. L. Rice it was unanimously agreed that the passing of this motion would serve also as notice of such changes in the Constitution and By-Laws as might be necessary to conform to said motion. Delegates to the Toronto Meeting of the B. A. A. S. By motion duly made and seconded the Academy unan- imously approved the recommendation of the Executive Com- mittee that Dr. A. E. Waller and Dr. Edward L. Rice be designated as the duly accredited delegates of this Academy to the Annual Meeting of the British Association for the Advance- ment of Science to be held in Toronto, August 6-13, 1924.

The first business session was called to order by President Transeau at 9:50 A. M., on Friday, April 3, 1925, in the Audi- torium of Taylor Hall. An adjourned session was held at the same place at 8:00 A. M. on the following day. The President announced the appointment of the following committees for the meeting: Committee on Membership—Geo. D. Hubbard, Chas. H. Otis, Clifford R. Cutright. Committee on Resolutions—L. B. Walton, J. H. Schaffner, Carl Ver Steeg. Committee on Necrology—F. O. Grover, John A. Bownocker. The following Auditing Committee was elected by the Academy: Lynds Jones and 8S. R. Williams. The following Nominating Commutiee was elected by the Academy by ballot: Raymond C. Osburn, J. Ernest Carman, E. L. Fullmer, Samuel W. Chase, F. C. Dockeray, L. W. Taylor. Report of the Secretary. The following report by the Secretary was received and ordered filed. Wooster, O., April 3, 1925. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The duties of the Secretary were, as in past years, largely of a purely routine character. These were taken care of with the greatest possible dispatch. Among the transactions that seem to be of sufficient importance to warrant their review at this time may be mentioned the following: Certificates of election to fellowship in the Academy were sent to all those thus honored at the Annual Meeting in 1924. A brief report of the Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting of the Academy and a copy of the report of the Committee on Necrology were sent to Science; the former appeared in the issue of May 23, 1924, pages 470- 472. Information regarding the history and organization of the Ohio Academy of Science together with a copy of our Constitution and By-Laws was sent to applicants in two or three states where the organ- ization of an academy was under consideration. The following letter received by the Secretary speaks for itself: TORONTO, SUNDAY, August 10, 1924. DEAR Mr. ALEXANDER: I do not wish to let today pass without telling you how much I am enjoying my visit here and how heartily I appreciate having been sent by the Academy. Lhirty-fufth Annual Meeting 345 There are quite a number of Ohioans here, so one could not feel strange. But if there were none, the easy, informal way in which things are planned and carried out prevents any shyness or stiffness. To me the meetings seem better organized than our own just from that very standpoint—but this is merely a personal opinion. Academy members who are here include R. C. Osburn, F. C. Blake, Alpheus Smith, A. P. Weiss, E. L. Rice and his father from Conn. Wesleyan, B. W. Wells, who is now in North Carolina but who still is a member of the Academy, Dr. Clare Martin of Bowling Green, and Albert Shadle. There may be others but I have not run into them. The botanists’ meetings have been splendid; a good many excursions are planned. I was much surprised when out of a clear sky my name was called to take part in the opening discussion on movement of food and water in plants. The president evidently remembered me from my visit to England in 1921. Sincerely, A. E. WALLER. In August, 1924, the Academy received a formal invitation to be represented at the inauguration of Robert Ernest Vinson, President of Western Reserve University, on October 9, 1924. Thereupon the Secretary wrote to Dr. Dayton C. Miller, Case School of Applied Science, Cleveland, asking him to serve as the duly accredited delegate of the Academy and he very kindly consented to do so. Doctor Miller’s report follows: CLEVELAND, O., Oct. 24, 1924. Mr. W. H. Alexander, Secretary, The Ohio Academy of Science, Columbus, Ohio. My Dear Mr. ALEXANDER: In accordance with your appointment of October 1, 1924, I attended the inauguration of Robert E. Vinson as President of Western Reserve University on October 9, 1924. I registered officially as the Representative of The Ohio Academy of Science and signed the formal register of delegates. I attended the ceremony of inauguration and the banquet in this capacity, and expressed the greetings of The Ohio Academy of Science to the officials of the University. I am enclosing a printed program of the exercises in which you will find The Ohio Academy of Science listed as participating in the occasion. I am sure the University appreciated the kindness and interest The Ohio Academy of Science took in this connection. With kindest regards, I am, Yours very truly, DayTon C. MILLER. The copy of the program sent by Doctor Muller is on file with the Secretary. The Secretary was present to represent the Academy in the Council of the American Association for the Advancement of Science at the Washington, D. C., meeting. While there, the Secretary together with the Treasurer, participated in a conference of representatives from the various state academies called by Dr. Burton E. Livingston, Permanent Secretary of the A. A. A. S., for the purpose of going over and thrashing out the whole question of affiliation between the Association and the academies. We understand the Treasurer is prepared to give the Academy a complete digest of this whole matter together with a state- ment of the final action taken by Council of the A. A. A. 5. In December last, we received a letter from Mr. Ovid M. Butler, the Executive Secretary of The American Forestry Association, Washing- ton, D. C., earnestly soliciting the endorsement of this Academy of an effort to secure through appropriate legislation National forest lands in 346 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science the Eastern half of the country. This matter is now presented to the Academy for its action. In the last few days we have received a communication from one B. E. Skvirsky who, presumably, is speaking for the ‘“ Russian Informa- tion Bureau’”’ in Washington, D. C., which, in turn, “is acting as repre- sentative of the Joint Information Bureau of Moscow in its endeavors to bring about closer contact between scientists as well as scientific and cultural organizations of the Soviet Union and the other countries.”’ The communication was acknowledged and is now before the Academy. Attention is also called to the fact that the Geology Section of this Academy held its annual field meeting and excursion in Cleveland and vicinity on May 30, 31 and June 1, 1924, under the leadership of Prof. J. E. Hyde of Western Reserve University. The committee composed of Vice-President Conrey, J. E. Carman and J. E. Hyde, prepared a most attractive program for this annual affair but we have no further report of same. WititamM H. ALEXANDER, Secretary. Report of the Treasurer for the Year 1924-1925. The following report by the Treasurer was received and referred to the Auditing Committee whose report is appended: To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Treasurer submits the following report for the period from April 2, 1924, to March 18, 1925: RECEIPTS.

Report of the Executive Committee. The following report of the Executive Committee was received and ordered filed: Wooster, O., April 3, 1925. To the Ohio Academy of Science: A meeting of the Executive Committee was called by the President and was held at the Faculty Club Rooms, Ohio State University, Columbus, on December 20, 1924, with three members—Transeau, Waller and Alexander—present. Letters of regret were read from the other two members—Shatzer and Patten. President Transeau presided. By unanimous vote it was decided to accept the invitation of the College of Wooster to hold the annual meeting for 1925 at Wooster, Ohio, and April 3 and 4 set for the meeting. The appointment of a local committee for the Wooster meeting was left to the President. It was agreed that the preliminary announcements of the meeting should be issued not later than February 15 and that every effort should be made to obviate the conflict with the Educational Conferences held at the Ohio State University. It was also agreed that in the event the Secretary was unable to attend the meetings of the A. A. A. S. at Washington, D. C., the latter 348 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science part of December, that the Treasurer, Dr. A. E. Waller, should be the representative of the Ohio Academy at a conference of representatives from the several state academies, called by Permanent Secretary Livingston, regarding the matter of affiliation. It was further voted to recommend to the Academy the appointment of a permanent Committee on Membership at the Wooster meeting. A second meeting of the committee was held last evening at Kenar- den Lodge, College of Wooster, Wooster, Ohio, with three members present—Transeau, Waller and Alexander. At this meeting twenty-seven applications for membership in the Academy were approved subject to final ratification by the Academy. Respectfully submitted, Witiiam H. ALEXANDER, Secretary, For the Committee. Report of the Publications Committee. The following report of the Publications Committee was received and ordered filed: Wooster, O., April 3, 1925. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The Annual Report of the Thirty-fourth Meeting, Proceedings, Vol. VII, Part 9, contained 39 pages and was published in September, 1924. The report minus the membership list was also published in the Ohio Journal of Science: 24: 209-229, 1924. Respectfully submitted, H. C. Sampson, Chairman. Report of the Library Committee. The following report of the Library Committee was not received in time to be presented to the Academy but is pub- lished for the information of the members: Cotumsus, O., April 8, 1925. My Dear Mr. ALEXANDER: I regret very much that pressure of work kept me from submitting to the Ohio Academy of Science the report of the Library Committee in time for reading at the Wooster meeting. I am inclosing the report of Miss McKee of the University Library who has attended to the details of the work this year. I suppose it will be possible for you to include this material in the regular section of the minutes just as if it had been presented at the meeting itself. MISS MCKEE’S REPORT. The sale of publications for the year amounted to $40.36, $2.62 of which is still outstanding, $37.74 having been turned over to the Treas- urer of the Academy. Thirty-fifth Annual Meeting 349 Late in December the Proceedings of the Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting were received from the printer and were mailed out in January to the members of the Academy and the exchange list. Exchange publications received by the Academy have been filed in the Library, some additions having been made to the list this year and one or two that were interrupted by the European war have been revived recently. Aice D. McKEE. Respectfully submitted, C. W. REEDER, Chairman. Report of the Trustees of the Research Fund. The following report of the Trustees of the Research Fund was received and ordered filed: CoLumBws, O., April 1, 1925. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The accounts of the research fund which came into our hands at the close of the last meeting, proved upon reference to the bank depos- its, to amount to the sum of $1,324.82 as indicated in the Proceedings of the last annual meeting. $1,300.00 of this amount was put into 7% bonds, leaving a cash balance of $24.82. The addition of interest in November increased this to $1,362.91. Accrued interest due May Ist, will bring this amount to $1,407.41. There have been no bills submitted or paid which is in accordance with the instruction of the Academy, that the funds be conserved during the year and that the trustees rec- ommend a plan of use for the fund in the future. The question of how to best utilize the research fund, is a somewhat difficult one, but the trustees would suggest the following as a. plan which may be subject to modification if the developments of the future indicate a better method. We recommend that the income from $1,000.00 of the research fund be available each year for a grant to be known as the McMillin grant and which may be used either for the assistance in some research prob- lem or given as an award in recognition of some especially noteworthy contribution of some member of the Academy. That the balance of the fund and income derived from it, sha!l be used or allowed to accumulate as the trustees may deem best in any particular year, it being understood that the fund or any interest income shall in all cases be used for the encouragement of research either by grants for individual problems or for the publication of papers resulting from research. Respectfully submitted, EDWARD L. RICcE, Geo. D. HuBBARD, HERBERT OSBORN, Chairman. 390 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science Report of the Committee on State Parks and Conservation. The following report of the Committee on State Parks and Conservation was received and ordered filed: Wooster, O., April 1, 1925. To the Ohio Academy of Science: It was impracticable to have a meeting of the full committee, but the chairman has requested members of the committee to send him suggestions or remarks concerning the possibilities of work in the com- mittee and has had replies from several members with varied suggestions. It is hoped that the committee may have a meeting in the future and formulate some definite suggestions concerning the management of the State Forest Areas, the Forest Parks and the Game Refuges, which are now under control of state authorities, and we believe that these areas offer a very practical means of preserving the State fauna and flora, and that with the cordial support of the authorities in charge of them, it would be possible to adopt measures which will furnish the most desir- able conditions for the use of the parks as well as for the preservation of the native fauna and flora. The most recent advancement has been the acquisition of a number of tracts for state forests and I cannot do better than quote a statement from Professor Secrest, the State Forester, and a member of this com- mittee, concerning the progress in this line: “The state department of Forestry was given authority by statute in 1916, to acquire lands for state forest purposes. The price of such land cannot exceed $10.00 per acre. In 1923 the state forest law was amended, permitting the Department to acquire ‘areas of outstanding scenic value, virgin woodlands, and lands containing unusual flora.’ In the purchase of such tracts the price is not limited “by statute. “From 1916 to 1921 it was difficult to secure funds for acquiring state forests. Increased appropriations from the Legislature were secured in 1921, and in 1923 were doubled, being $100,000 for the biennium. “To date six state forests have been acquired totaling approx- imately 14,420 acres. These tracts comprise the Dean State Forest of 1,500 acres in Lawrence County; Waterloo State Forest, of 221 acres in Athens County; Scioto County State Forest, 5,200 acres, in Scioto County; Scioto Trail State Forest, of 5,900 acres in Ross County; Pike County State Forest, 1,100 acres in Pike County; and Mt. Logan State Forest of 500 acres in Ross County (under lease from Federal Gov- ernment. ) ‘The state forests are located for the most part on ‘absolute forest land,’ and the tracts are to be devoted not only to experiments and demonstrations in timber culture, but to park and recreation uses as well. The present areas are in some cases nuclei to be further extended in the future. This is particularly true of Dean, Pike, and Scioto Forests. Land can be purchased within the limit of $10.00 per acre. The topog- raphy is rough, the soils thin, and the land largely stocked with second growth hardwood and pine forest. The open area is under 10%, and is in eg Lhairty-fifth Annual Meeting dol most cases the typical abandoned fields, which when cultivation ceases are quick to revert to the typical Appalachian Plateau temporary forest types. About 300 acres of these old fields on the State Forests have been planted to a considerable variety of forest trees, which give promise for reforestation purposes. The forestry problems are largely those of protection against fires, and the management of the native forest stands. The State Forests are a delightful place for visitors who are interested in all forms of wild life, and the existing flora and fauna will be preserved and replenished by the protection now afforded these areas. “The first forest parks were purchased in 1924. Logically enough the start was made in Hocking County where doubtless all will agree by and large Ohio’s most outstanding, and interesting scenic areas exist. This is known as the ‘cave region.’ Not only is the geology most inter- esting, but the flora is decidedly varied, unique, and interesting. The gorges contain immense specimens of the original virgin woodland— hemlocks, tulip trees, oaks, maples, three species of birch, and a wealth of wild flowers. “The well known Rock House, The Gulf or Old Man’s Cave, and Kunkle’s Hollow are now in possession of the State. An option has been secured on Ash Cave, and it can soon be taken over. Other interesting places in this region are contemplated for purchase. “Other forest parks are under consideration in different parts of Ohio. “The Parks will be open to the public under rules and regulations free of charge and arrangements will be made, to provide accessibility and comfort to a degree ‘that will satisfy those who love the outdoors, and nature’s handiwork. The old fields in connection with the Parks, will be planted to trees so that the greatest usefulness will obtain. “The State Forests and Forest Parks either purchased or under option now number 12, and total approximately 16,500 acres. The num- ber and total area will be increased by July Ist with funds now available.” Professor Fullmer reports that there have been additions to the Cleveland Metropolitan Park System, which now consists of some 4,500 acres, and that ‘‘this is being added to from time to time and the open- ing of roads into some of the tracts has made them more available. It is planned to make a lake of some 100 acres on this portion of the tract near Whips’s ledge. This tract lying about 15 miles south of the city in Medina County, has been enlarged by a gift since we visited it two years ago.” Professor Shatzer states that there is opportunity for the develop- ment of several miles of River Area Park in the vicinity of Springfield and that it is hoped this tract may be utilized. The additions to the game refuges which are under the supervision of the Fish and Game Commission have not been reported recently, but while these do not give as permanent a guarantee of preservation as the State forests, they undoubtedly will serve a very valuable purpose, and the refuges which are permanent State property are being so adminis- tered that we believe they will prove of much value as biological centers. OL Froceeadings of the Unio Academy OJ Science The chairman of this committee visited the Royal Palm State Park of Florida last week and was much interested in learning as to its management. It is managed by the State Federation of Women’s Clubs under authority of the State and maintains a lodge and provides picnic grounds for tourists, but with scrupulous care to preserve the natural conditions of a very unusual tract of biologic interest. Respectfully submitted, HERBERT OSBORN, Chairman. Report of the Committee on Legislation. Wooster, O., April 3, 1925. To the Ohio Academy of Science: Unfortunately the members of this committee are rather widely scattered over the State and it has been, therefore, practically 1 impossi- ble to get a ie oss present for a formal meeting. A meeting was called for January 10, 1925, but a quorum did not appear. Thereupon the chairman of the committee called together a number of the members of the Academy living in Columbus and v icinity. At this conference were President Transeau, Professors Herbert Osborn, F. H. Krecker, and C. W. Reeder, and the chairman. The only matter considered at this informal meeting was whether or not an attempt should be made to get a bill through the 86th General Assembly, and if so, in what form. It was agreed that we should make the effort and the following draft was sored out and submitted to the members of the committee: Ee Bs Now 23° A BILL RELATIVE TO STATE RECOGNITION OF THE OHIO ACADEMY OF SCIENCE. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Ohio: Section 1. The Ohio Academy of Science, a corporation not for profit. incor- porated under the laws of Ohio, March 12, 1892, shall be under the control of a board of trustees consisting of fifteen members to serve without salary or per diem. Six of the members of the board shall be appointed by the governor with the advice and consent. of the Senate, two to serve for two years, two to serve for four years and two to serve for six years, and until their successors are appointed and qualified, and thereafter two members shall be appointed every two years to serve for a term of six years. The remaining nine members of the board shall be elected by the members of the Academy. Sec. 2. On and after the taking effect of this act, the Ohio Academy of Science shall constitute an official source of advice and information on all scientific ques- tions within its field submitted to it by any state department or officer thereof. The services of the Academy shall be available to the state or any of its officers in any matter within its field in which the consideration of scientific facts or policies may be involved, and the officers of the state may call upon the Academy of Sci- ence, through its properly elected officers or committees appointed by its officers, for such consultation and advice as may be of service to them in their duties. The members of such committees shall receive no compensation for their services, except that all traveling, clerical and other necessary expenses shall be paid. No member of the Ohio Academy: of Science, while serving on any such committee shall be eligible for expert service under advice from said committee for which compensation from the state is received. Lnirly-fijih Annual Meeting 309d See. 3. The Ohio Academy of Science may issue from time to time publica- tions dealing with the results of scientific investigations. Through such agency or agencies as the board ot trustees may designate, said publications shall be made available by distribution, exchange, or sale, to the citizens of Ohio, scientific workers and scientific societies. Sec. 4. The board of trustees shall submit biennially, to the director of finance, a budget covering the necessary expenses to be incurred in carrying out the pro- visions of this act, and the general assembly shall make such appropriations as it may deem advisable. It was further agreed that in as much as Mr. E. J. Riggs of Gallia County introduced a similar bill at our request in the 85th Assembly (H. B. No. 400) he be asked to introduce the bill in the 86th Assembly. This he very kindly consented to do and the bill was introduced as drafted and became known as H. B. No. 123. It was referred to the Finance Committee and after considerable delay the committee gave us a hearing on the Bill.. At this hearing appeared on behalf of the Acad- emy, President Transeau, Mr. Arthur Harper, Mr. E. S. Thomas, Dr. R. C. Osburn and the Secretary. The hearing was respectful but purely perfunctory, as it was clearly evident that the Finance Committee had already closed the door against the Bill. The adverse decision of the committee announced a few days later was not a surprise. The committee is of the opinion that if the Academy is to continue its efforts along this line—and it so recommends—and hopes to get results, it will be necessary for the Academy to resolve itself into a “committee of the whole” and make a united effort to interest the members of the Assembly through the “folks at home.” W.

To the Ohio Academy of Science: A meeting of the Committee on the Election of Fellows was held last evening at Kenarden Lodge, College of Wooster, Wooster, Ohio. Six members of the committee were present and the other members were represented by proxy. Of the candidates considered, two received the necessary nine favorable votes and were declared elected. The fellows elected will be personally notified, and the list will be published in the Proceedings of this meeting. Respectfully submitted, WiLiiAmM H. ALEXANDER, Secretary, For the Committee. The following is a list of those elected Fellows: Henry Curtis BEARDSLEE JosrepH H. Topp 306 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science The following Special Report on the Relations between the American Association for the Advancement of Science and The Ohio Academy of Science was received and ordered filed: Wooster, O., April 2, 1925. To the Ohio Academy of Science: The plans for affiliation between the American Association and the various state academies were made the subject of action at the St. Louis meeting of the Association in 1919. In January of 1920 your Treasurer was asked to inquire of Doctor L. O. Howard the results of this action and received the following reply: “Yours of the 6th has come. I find that your understanding of the affiliation matter is correct and corresponds with the action of the Council at St. Louis, with the exception of No. 1. Following is a transcript from the minutes of the Council meeting of December 29th: “The Committee on Affiliation of State and Local Academies reported the fol- lowing recommendations: “1. That State academies be affiliated on a financial basis that will yield the Association four dollars net per member. “9. Any State academy which concludes arrangements for affiliation within the first six months of 1920 may be accepted for the entire year 1920, fees paid to the Association before that date to be adjusted in accordance with the detailed plan. ‘3. Two alternative plans are considered with respect to membership in the academies, namely (a) All members of the academy to affiliate with the Association; (b) To establish two grades of membership, of which one will be national, involving membership in both academy and Associa- tion; the other local, consisting of academy membership only. “4 The academies will collect joint dues and transmit the Association’s share to the Treasurer. “Voted that the report of the Committee on Affilation of State and Local > Academies be received and approved. “Vour No. 4 is all right. The collection of four dollars instead of three by the Association is necessitated by the new arrangement by which the Association pavs the journal Science three dollars for each new member. You see we must have something for overhead expense.’’ It is clear from this letter that our Academy was not altering its dues, but that the Association was to receive one dollar less for the sub- scription to “‘Science”’ from all of its affiliated State Academy members. That this is plainly understood as the basis of the financial arrangement is still further brought out in a letter dated May 21 from Dr. B. E. Livingston, who succeeded Dr. Howard as Permanent Secretary of the Association: ‘Replying to your several letters, your ideas about the nature of the affiliation between the Ohio Academy of Science and the American Association for the Advancement of Science are quite right. I think I have everything clear now. We refund $1 for each member of the Academy who has paid $5 dues to the American Association for 1920. For each new member you are to send this office $4, together with his name and address and a statement of which journal he prefers. The journal will be ordered as soon as the remittance and data are at hand. Since back issues of the journals are limited, prompt action is necessary. Also, of course anew member would like to have his journal begin promptly. I suggest that you send me new members’ names and remittance for them so that they will reach here on Wednesday of each week. We send our list to Science every Friday. Lhirty-fijth Annual Meeting BYA - “T want to ask you if you can follow this scheme for collecting dues next October. We will have a special statement card prepared for Academies. On its front will be a statement of the affiliation and blank spaces for imprinting the Academy name and the bill for 1921 dues. On the back will be blanks to be filled in by members, for information for this office and for Membership List, A. A. A. S. We will put the name and address of member on front of card and send all cards to you. We will also supply window envelopes for you to mail cards out in. You are to send these out about September 25 or so and they are to come back to you, with members’ remittances. You are to send the cards to this office with $4 for each one. This scheme will get your members on cards here which are just like the cards of our other members. I hope you will fall into this idea, for it is essential that we have the same system for all our members. A new membership list is being prepared and it is necessary that we have all the information about all members promptly after October 1.” It was not only clear from this that the Association was expecting to reduce the joint dues of members of both organizations, but also they were going to help in obtaining an increasing membership in the Academies. After a year of this, however, the cost to the Association of remitting one dollar to each of its members who was also a member of a state Academy was greater than at first anticipated. In the correspondence of that period with Dr. Livingston, this amount lost to the Association by: its voluntary relinquishment of one dollar of the price of the sub- scription to ‘‘Science’’ came to be regarded as money needlessly turned back to the individuals from whom it had been collected. From the point of view of State Academies which do not publish Journals or Proceedings of a scientific nature and whose membership fee had always been lower than ours in the Ohio Academy it was a clear gain of a dollar per member. Dr. Livingston wishing to call attention to what was undoubtedly great financial assistance to these Academies gave a name to the remitted funds and called them ‘‘Grants of the Association to the Academies.’’ It must be remembered however that in our Academy we had not changed our dues or our Journal costs. To us it was simply the arrangement originally proposed in the St. Louis meeting of the Associa- tion, namely—a reduction in the cost of Science. We did not see any reason for charging more for the Ohio Journal of Science for the members of the Association than for the Academy members who were not also Association members, and we simply returned the money to the former. Personally speaking I did not think that a mistake at the beginning of our affiliation and I do not think it a mistake now. Correspondence was often voluminous over the manner of payments of the members and the affiliation arrangement for the past five years has been purely a financial arrangement from which no scientific ben- efits have accrued. As there were new plans evolved they would often come as “‘instructions’”’ from the Association office. There was no way of obtaining a list from the Association of its members who were desir- able from the standpoint of their attainments and residence in the State as prospective members of the Academy. We furnished the Association each year with the lists of our members. In 1923 the increases in enroll- ment in the Association through direct recommendation of the Treasurer were counted as seventeen. No account was taken at that time of the 308 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science total increases in Ohio. This was putting the increases in membership in an unfair light as undoubtedly the Academy members many of whom are science teachers and research students were largely responsible for these new memberships in the Association. The Association after two years of having dues collected by the Treasurer in each of the affiliated Academies decided to collect its own dues. This seemed to your Treasurer psychologically unsound, as it meant that two bills in place of one must be collected from each mem- ber. The following paragraph is taken from a letter to Dr. Livingston written by the Treasurer under date of March 8, 1923: “Your letter of February 23d which should have been sent to me was for- warded by Dr. Rice and reached me yesterday. You are doing the Ohio Academy of Science a great injustice in supposing that only seventeen new members were received through the Academy for the A. A. A. S. Our lists are not worth checking over on this point, but I know more than seventeen members have been added. You are doing the Academy a serious injury in changing the billing of the A. A. A. S. members from the office here to the Washington office because the members have just been trained to send the money here. Now your order (for that strong word is just about what it amounts to) comes, to abandon this system and substi- tute the collection directly through your office. Certainly the Academy can not be supposed to have been glad to collect the money for you in the first place. They did it simply as an ac commodation and in the matter of the affiliation it seemed as though it would be an easy way of completing the arrangement.”’ . With all of this there was still nothing but a financial arrangement and there was no scientific advance. There was further an annoying distinction made between the affiliated academies and the affiliated Societies which was also on a financial basis, namely that a five dollar initial fee was remitted if the new member was also a member of an affiliated Society. It was in consequnece difficult to find out exactly what a new member should pay. Passing over the correspondence of the next year, we wish to note the work of Professor Osborn in attempting to raise the level of the basis of affiliation from an exchange of checks to the point where scien- tific work might be benefited. A paragraph from a letter of Dr. Transeau to Dr. Livingston under date of December 8, 1924, will serve “Tn view of the difficulties attending the collection and distribution of the dues, and the apparent change in point of view of the American Association indi- cated by a comparison of your letter with that of Dr. Howard, I would suggest that the proposal made by Professor Herbert Osborn might meet the situation. As I understand his scheme, it is that the dues be collected as before the affiliation, and that the Association actually subsidize the academies according to their membership, $25 for those having one hundred members or less, $50 for those having between one and two hundred members, and $100 for those having 3800 or more members. These amounts would be credited to the Academy as a whole and would not be rebated to members. In this way the affiliation would not be weak- ened and the Association would not be called upon for any large contribution to the Academies.”’ This letter was written shortly before the Washington meeting of the Association. Through the Association’s committee on State Acad- emies and the letters from the affiliated academies registering protests to the secretary there was at the last meeting an attempt to come to an understanding and to bring our affiliation to a reasonable arrangement, Thirty-fifth Annual Meeting 309 namely, to cost the Association less, but to derive more of scientific benefits from the work of the scientific men of the country. The Asso- ciation has spent more money than it feels it should by reducing the price of Science to Academy members and is proposing a new and less expensive arrangement. It is contained in the following paragraphs: (10) The Council adopted the following resolutions concerning the future of arrangements with affiliated academies of science and local branches: (a) In view of the rapid increase in the number of members con- cerned, it has become impossible to continue the annual grants to affil- iated academies and local branches as in the past, and the association consequently finds it necessary to reduce the allowances for these organizations, for 1926 and until further notice, to one-half of the present amount per member. This reduction is to go into effect October 1, 1925. (b) All members of any affiliated academy are to be at all times, until further notice, eligible to admission to the association on cer- tification by the proper academy officer and without payment of the usual entrance fee. (c) The permanent secretary is instructed to take up the applica- tions for academy affiliations according to the modified arrangements for academy affiliation now authorized. 5. Since the academy allowance from the Association is now to be but 50 cents per year per member, it seems desirable that the affiliated academies should collect full academy dues from their association mem- bers. It is hoped that those academies that have heretofore crédited association allowances as academy dues will arrange this matter this spring, so that there may be no misunderstanding on the part of their members next fall when the new rule is to go into effect. It may be desirable for the proper academy officer to send to all association mem- bers of his academy an announcement on this subject, either before or at the time of sending out the bills for annual dues. The facilities of the permanent secretary’s office are offered to the affiliated academies in this and similar kinds of circularization; multigraphing, mimeographing or printing circulars or letters and the addressing of envelopes for acad- emy work can be cared for at the Washington office at actual cost or less, if the academy so desires. The general facilities of the office are to be at the service of the affiliated academies, with probably some saving in cost. Since the arrangement between the American Association and the Academy has been largely a financial one, your Treasurer has cared for most of the correspondence. The Association promises for the future that the affiliation will have less of a financial and more of a scientific conscience. The association therefore asks the appointment of a rep- resentative from each of the State Academies. This is expressed in the recent communication under date of March 21, 1925, as follows: REPRESENTATION OF AFFILIATED ACADEMIES IN THE ASSOCIATION. D. Each affiliated academy is to have, as heretofore, a representative in the council of the Association, thus taking part in the direction of association affairs. 360 Proceedings of the Ohio Academy of Science It is hoped that the academy representatives will be named as early in the year as possible, so as to be listed in the permanent secretary’s files. If an academy representative is to be unable to attend an annual meeting of the Association another may at any time be named to take his place. In general, an academy representative will be considered as remaining in office until his successor is officially named to the permanent secretary’s office. It is suggested to the Ohio Academy that this representative be appointed as heretofore by the executive committee. It cannot be denied that the Association has maintained a vacillating policy toward the State Academies. That this probably will continue is to be seen in the following paragraphs from the communications of March 21 from Dr. Livingston (italics inserted by the Treasurer). G. Term of these arrangements. “Tt is understood that those arrangements of academy affiliation are not to be considered as in any way binding on the Association beyond the actual statements here made. The arrangements here described are to go into effect October 1, 1925, and are to be continued until further action by the council of the Association. Modifi- cations may be made from year to year and the nature of such modifications will doubtless be determined by the degree of success with which the purposes of the affiliation are fulfilled. It is understood, however, that no changes in the financial or membership aspect of these arrangements will be placed in operation without at least a six-months’ preliminary notice to the academies. An academy may with- draw from the affiliation on six months’ notice. “Tt is to be hoped that the affiliated academies will continue to increase in strength and that the time may soon come when they will not need to accept financial grants from the Association. It is to be remembered that the source of academy allowances is solely the association membership dues paid by members and that there are before the Association many projects for advancing American science that will require funds from this source. If any affiliated academy may find it possible to remit its annual association grant such action will be greatly appreciated by the latter, the funds thus freed will be utilized to advance science in other ways, and _ the non-financial aspects of the affiliation may be strengthened by such remission of grants. ‘The officers and representatives of the affiliated academies are invited to make further suggestions for improving the association-academy relations, and to inform the permanent secretary as to their approval or disapproval of the par- agraphs of this memorandum, or as to their suggestions regarding the improvement.” A. E. WALLER, Treasurer. iile2 a ODO: Following the reading of the above report, there was con- siderable discussion, pro et con, relative to the advisability of continuing the affiliation between the Ohio Academy of Science and the A. A. A. S. Finally, upon motion of L. B. Walton, sec- onded by R. V. Bangham, the matter was referred to the Executive Committee with power. Report of the Committee on Resolutions. The following resolutions were submitted by the Committee and unanimously adopted by the Academy: Thirty-fifth Annual Meeting 361 1. The Ohio Academy of Science wishes to express its appreciation to The College of Wooster, The Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station and the unusually efficient local Committee, for making this, the Thirty-fifth Annual Meeting one of the most successful as well as enjoy- able the Academy has held. 2. The Academy furthermore desires to extend to the representa- tives of the Press its cordial appreciation of the space given in the papers to the program and to the results accomplished by the members of this Academy. 3. The Ohio Academy of Science in session at Wooster, Ohio, wishes to place itself on record as deploring the recent action of the Governor and the Legislature of the State of Tennessee in connection with their recent enactments relative to natural phenomena. The pub- licity thus developed will prove disadvantageous to the best interests of the State. 4. The Ohio Academy of Science assembled at Wooster, Ohio, wishes to express its sympathy to the teachers of science in Tennessee in connection with the handicaps under which they have been placed in teaching the truths of nature.
