MT. DESERT ISLAND| BIOLOGICAL LABORATORY

(Formerly the Harpswell Laboratory)

SALISBURY COVE, MAINE Five and one-half miles from Bar Harbor, on the north shore of Mt. Desert

Island, the laboratory offers facilities to investigators for marine biological research.

An amnple supply of running fresh cold sea water uncontaminated by any kind of waste or oil makes possible prolonged studies on eggs, embryos and other sensitive organisms. A ten-foot tide exposes a great variety of species many of which are typical of the Acadian fauna and flora. Season extends from June 15 to September 15.

For use of the facilities or for further information write to

Prof. William H. Cole, Rutgers University,

New Brunswick, N. J.

QUANTITATIVE BIOLOGY Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology are unique and out- standing. The papers which make up the volumes are open to unlimited discussion at the conference-symposia held at Cold Spring Harbor each sum- mer. Usually one paper and the discussion of it occupy a half day. The discussion as printed constitutes an extensive and critical examination of each paper.

Volume I. 1933 - Surface Phenomena AUTHORS: H. A. Abramson, D. R. Briggs, Robert Chambers, Barnett Cohen, K. S. Cole, Hugo Fricke, H. S. Gasser, A. V. Hill, Duncan MacInnes, L. Michaelis, Stuart Mudd, Hans Muller, W. J. V. Osterhout, Eric Ponder, Theodor Svedberg, D. D. Van Slyke.

Also, approximately 30,000 words of discussion by 31 participants.

Volume II. 1934 - Aspects of Growth AUTHORS: W. T. Astbury, Felix Bernstein, H. W. Chalkley, G. L. Clark, C. B. Davenport, M. Demeree, Hugo Fricke, J. W. Gowen, F. Gudernatsch, FP. S. Hammett, Olive Hoffman, T. L. Jahn, L. G. Longsworth, Hans Muller, Charles Packard, Otto Rahn, N. Rashevsky, 0. W. Richards, C. R. Stockard, V. C. Twitty, H. C. Urey, C. Voegtlin, E. B. Wilson, C. P. Winsor, Sewall Wright, R. W. G. Wyckoff.

Also, over 60,000 words of discussion by 58 participants. Price of either volume $3.35, bound in cloth and delivered. Both volumes $6.50. Standing orders for all volumes as they appear, $2.90 per volume. Address:

THE BIOLOGICAL LABORATORY COLD SPRING HARBOR, L. I., N. Y.

"This probably will be considered by many as the best textbook which has yet appeared for students in colleges, universities, teachers' colleges, and some technical schools.'' Amer. Jour. of Public Health.

A Textbook of Physiology By William D. Zoetliont, Ph.D., Professor of Physiology in Chicago College of Dental Surgery (Loyola University) and in Kendall College of Physical Education. Fourth edition. 724 pages, 51/2 x 81,2, 236 illustrations, including several color pates. Price, $4.75.

This book fills the gap between the larger texts of which there are maanv in the field and those offering a briefer course of physiology.

Pettibone's Textbook of Physiological Chemistry Revised and Rewritten by J. F. IVIeClendon, Ph.D., Professor of Physiological Chem- istry in the Medical School of the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minn. 370 pages, 6 x 9, with illustrations. Fifth edition. Price, $3.75.

The plan of this book is to cover as completely as possible in a brief but adequate manner the general field of physiological chemistry, so that the student or physician may obtain a clear idea of the properties of the comipounds which are plhysiologically important. Many experi- inents are included.

A Textbook of General Biology By E. Grace White, Ph.D., Professor of Biology, Wilson College, Chambersburg, Pa. 615 pages, 295 illustrations. Price, $3.00.

Provides an elementary text for college students which will adequately cover both the animal and plant kingdoms.

A Laboratory Manual of General Biology By E. Grace White, Ph.D., Professor of Biology in Wilson College, Chambersburg, Pa. 232 pages, 7 % x 101/2, in loose-leaf form, punched to fit standard two- and three-ring binders. Price, postpaid, $1.50.

This manual is arranged to follow the author's Textbook; of General Biology, published in 1933 by The C. V. Mosby Company, and covers the course as offered at Wilson College in Chambersburg, Pa.

Principles of Chemistry By Joseph H. Roe, Ph.D., Professor of Biochemistry. George Washington University Medical School; Lecturer in Chemistry, Central School of Nursing, Washington, D. C.; Captain Sanitary Division, U. S. Medical Reserves. 486 pages, 51/4 x 73/4, 39 illustra- tions. Third edition. Price, $2.50.

An introductory textbook of inorganic, organic and physiological chemistry for nurses and students of home economics and applied chemistry.

Principles of Bacteriology In Fifteen Lessons By Arthur A. Eisenberg, A.B., M.D., Director of Laboratories. Sydenham Hospital, New York City, and Mabel F. Huntly, B.S., R.N., Director of the School for Pre- liminary Courses in Nursing, Philadelphia. 325 pages, 51/4 x 73/4, 62 illustrations. Fifth edition. Price, $2.50.

The continued approval of Eisenberg's text by teachers has made it possible to issue this fifth revised edition, thus keeping it abreast of the progress of bacteriology.

to Aspects of Behavior By HUDSON HOAGLAND

:id Un~vc ~ This volume deals with the applications of the conception of the dynamic steady state to a variety of problems of plant

Xnsted S $TAOLER and animal behavior. Certain examples of the behavior of fAaXcultre protoplasmic systems are selected and discussed in detail to

illustrate how physicochemical master reactions involved in SEWALL WRIGI4r the maintenance of the steady state, may determine as pace-

makers the velocities of complex behavioral events. The miethod of approach is especially interesting since it fur-
