The council of the kennebec Natural
History Antiquarian Society has held re-
cent meetings at which plans for the work
of the society for the coming year have
been considered, subjects for future meet
ings discussed and other suggestions for the
greater usefulness of the society talked
over. The animal membership fee of one
dollar is very small and it is necessary
That all members pay the amount promptly
in order that the work of the society may
not bc Interrupted, a. the fees on the pres
cnt basis of membership are not sufficient
to meet the rent Of hall and other necessary
expenses of the so,4ety. Fees for 1898
are nov ,lnc and may be handed to the
treasurer Mr. George W. Fickery.
H. the hope of creating additional in
;crest in the society and its work,
the council has arranged for Prof. Leslie A.
Lee of Bow,lon College to give his Illus
rated lecture, "A Snmmer IN Labrador,
before the society on February It'll Other
lectures are contemplated. The paper at
the regular monthly meeting Feb. I, will
he read by Dr W Scott Hill, at which it is
hoped all members will be present. The
council will en,Ieayor to have their work so
ell arranged for the season that papers
will occur at each monthly meeting, and
they will be glad to have them discussed by
members at the time they are read. An
