Notes | Nature

As we have already intimated, the German Association of Naturalists and Physicians meets at Danzig from September 18 to 24. Contributions from non-German workers in science are earnestly

asked for, and we are sure that any foreigners who desire to be present at the meeting will receive a hearty welcome. Applications for quarters should be made before September 10 to Herr L.

Biber, Brodbänkengasse 13, Danzig. Besides the usual excursions, concerts, and other social gatherings which the Germans know how to manage so well, there will be plenty of work in the

twenty-three sections. Among the public lectures to be given are the following:—On September 8, “On Writing, Printing, and the Prevailing Shortsightedness,” by Dr. Hermann Cohn of Breslau;

“On some Characteristics of Cell-life,” by Dr. Strasburger of Jena. September 21—”The Food of Marine Animals,” by Dr. Moebius of Kiel; “The Statics of Continents and the alleged decrease of

the Water of the Ocean,” by Dr. Jentzsch, of Königsberg; “The Scientific Standpoint of Psychiatry,” by Dr. Wernecke of Berlin. September 24— ”Polar Expeditions or Polar Observatories,” by

Dr. Neumayer of Hamburg; “Foreign Domestic Birds, with special reference to the scientific results of their Breeding,” by Dr. Carl Russ of Steglitz.
