Transactions Of The American Fisheries Society At Its Thirty Sixth Annual Meeting PDF Download

Excerpt from Transactions of the American Fisheries Society at Its Thirtieth Annual Meeting, July 19 and 20, 1901 A word as to the growth of our society and the qualifications for membership. It seems to me that our membership list should increase far more rapidly. We should have one hundred mem bers or even one thousand where we now have but one. It has occurred to me that through lack of example or proper encourage ment, we have unintentionally barred out a large class who are eminently qualified for admission, and I hereby appoint every member a committee of one to advertise the fact that all amateur and professional fish liars are eligible to membership. No convention hall in the country would hold the delegates if we could but bring into the fold all who are gifted in this dirce tion and practice the art. Indeed, from some things I have heard since coming here, there is a lot of mighty good material in Milwaukee, and we should at least double our membership right here.
