Opening Session

The Entomological Society of Canada held its eighth annual meeting jointly with the ninety-fifth annual meeting of the Entomological Society of Ontario at the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, from October 29 to November 1. This was the first meeting of the national society at the headquarters of the Ontario society, which for many years served as a national society. A total of 172 members and friends attended, including 23 members and guests from the United States and 17 wives. At the beginning of the opening session, a minute's silence was observed in tribute to Dr. K. W. Neatby, Director, Science Service, Canada Department of Agriculture, who had died on October 27. Addresses of welcome were given by G. G. Dustan, President, Entomological Society of Ontario, Dr. J. D. MacLachlan, President, Ontario Agricultural College, and G. P. Holland, President, Entomological Society of Canada. At the opening session, Mr. Holland asked whether the Society was paying due attention to all its responsibilities. He considered that responsibilities to amateur entomologists might well be given more attention, possibly by providing a place for amateurs on the programs at annual meetings, by publishing handbooks, and by providing financial aid to students in entomology. He welcomed Dr. V. B. Wigglesworth, Cambridge University, England, to the meeting and also D. K. McE. Kevan, Head, Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology, Macdonald College, to Canada.
