Abstract
BY kind permission of the Royal Society, the Quekett Microscopical Club is holding its annual conversazione in the rooms of the Royal Society at Burlington House at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, October 13. Not only will there be a large number of exhibits staged by members of the Club, but also the Committee responsible for the organization of the conversazione has been fortunate in enlisting the sympathy and co-operation of other well-known scientific workers and microscopical clubs. The Royal Society is exhibiting original communications from Van Leeuwenhoek and drawings by Hooke. In addition, exhibits have been received from the Natural History Society of Cape Town, from the Microscopical Society of Victoria, Australia, from microscopists in France, the United States and various microscopical societies in Great Britain. A series of cinematographic exhibits on microscopical, pond and other life, also of the development of the bird ovum, will be given at intervals during the evening by Messrs. Kodak, Ltd. Cards of admission can be obtained on application to Mr. W. S. Warton, 35 Doneraile Street, London, S.W.6.
