Concerning the nature and work of this association the club mem bers learned that it is confined to the West ern Hemisphere, is divided into fifteen sec tions in which nearly 200 organizations in the United States and Canada are affiliated. At the meetings of the groups, of the sec tions, and of the entire association there i- a process of pooling all valuable discoveries made by researchers and not previously re ported. A few of the interesting investigations which Miss Albro reported to the clubs were these: (1) Demonstrations of proofs that the temperature maintained during the hatch ing of eggs is related to the heat insistence of the animal afterwards. (2) Discoveries of the possibilities of treating wounds by means of sterilized maggots. The maggots are from sterilized eggs; which are treated bacteriologically. (3) Another interesting report given was of an explanation given by means of moving pictures and lecture of the process by which nerve fibers may be re generated in tadpoles and salamanders. The attendance at the Atlantic City meet ing was much over 3,000. The meeting of the Biology Club on Feb ruary 10th, addressed by Dr. Newell, was for the students of the department no less interesting than the previous report con cerning the large things being done in the field, for she added in another way to the impulse to become useful investigators in the field of science. She took her audience informally into her own experience after the completion of her undergraduate work in biology; into her experiences of teaching and then on her travels and into her studies in Leipsic and at Naples, having most thril ling experiences based on what she had learned in undergraduate studies and in teaching. Graduate study did not seem like a dreadful trial or drudging; it seemed like a piece of grand experience which was a fulfillment of dreams about the wonders of nature. + + j I j At Any | ;ROGERS I STORE You will find always the best j grocery values—plus courteous ■ service and full appreciation of : your patronage. +" + — —+
