Abstract
NOTTINGHAM, SEPTEMBER 13. THE meeting of the Association, which commences to-day, will take place mainly in the University College. In this building all the Sections, with the exception of the geographical, economical, and anthropological, will assemble. The Sections representing the experimental sciences will be accommodated in lecture theatres built and furnished for the express purpose of illustrating and demonstrating these sciences. Every convenience will therefore be afforded in the meeting rooms for the proper illustration of the papers which will be communicated. Further, the students' laboratories, which are in immediate connection with these theatres, will furnish most convenient exhibition rooms for the illustrative apparatus, specimens, and diagrams during the week of meeting, and when they are not required for illustration in the sectional room. The College will thus become the scientific headquarters during the meeting. It will in addition furnish convenient sectional committee rooms, sectional secretaries' rooms, anthropometric laboratory, ladies' boudoir, smoking-room, convenient retiring rooms, and a large luncheon buffet in the attached public lending library.
