Abstract
THE meeting of the British Association, to be held in Manchester next September, will present some novel and some exceptional features. The special encouragement that will be offered this year to the large class, of students and teachers of the district in which the meeting is held, to join the association by offering them associates' tickets at a reduced fee is a novel feature which, if it proves to be successful, may be repeated in future years. The reduction in the number of days over which the meeting extends, the absence from the programme of the formal excursions to which the members are accustomed, and the omission of garden parties and some of the evening entertainments, are exceptional features which have been necessitated by the circumstances arising from the war.
