Zoological Congress August 19 to 23

The seventh International Zoological Congress will meet at the University Medical School this summer from August 19 to August 23. This will be the first of these congresses to be held in America, as the other six were at paris, Moscow, Leiden, Cambridge, England, Berlin and Bern, respectively.

The principal foreign zoological societies will send delegates. After the election of officers, the delegates will be divided, according to their interest in different branches of zoology, into sections for daily discussion. There will be three general meetings, several excursions, and a reception by Mr. Alexander Agassiz '55, chairman of the general committee. The Harvard Esperanto Society is considering the feasibility of having members act as guides to the foreign delegates.

At the close of the Congress the delegates will visit Woods Hole, as well as various points of scientific and historical interest in New York, on the Hudson, and in Washington. They will also visit Harvard, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton Universities, Mt. Vernon, Niagara Falls, Toronto, and Bermuds
