Abstract
MR. J. H. UNNA, in Nature of December 9, makes the point that it almost always pays members of scientific and professional institutions who are 'good lives' to commute their annual subscriptions. The great practical objection to this is that a member who commutes is no longer able to make his disapproval felt by resigning. On the contrary, his resignation puts money into the institution's pocket.
