Abstract
IN reference to Prof. Thompson's letter (June 16, p. 151), will you allow me to say that in 1884 I went from the meeting of the Association of American Microscopists at Rochester, N.Y., to that of the British Association at Montreal. At the former the proceedings commenced daily at 9 a.m., closing about noon, and another short session was held in the afternoon. The middle of the day was thus left at liberty for Committee work, sight-seeing, or rest, and the greater amount of work got through in the day as compared with the usual plan at our Association was very striking.
