Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, 1888, Vol. 1 I am certain that you all agree with me how grateful we ought to be to our Secretary for the trouble and care he takes in its issue and in the welfare of the Society, and feel that it is our bounden duty to assist him in this task to the utmost of our ability. Perhaps one of the best ways of doing this would be to try and get more new members, which ought to be done pretty easily, as our subscription is very small, and we occupy a position with reference to microscopy which ought to be most serviceable and agreeable to many of us quiet students of nature. Our method of communication being by post, we are enabled to reach all parts of the kingdom with great facility, and thus being brought into direct communication with each other are able to mutually assist members both in theory and practice. It seems superfluous to remind microscopists of the great charms of the study of the infinitely little, but as there may be some present who have not engaged in that study, perhaps those familiar with microscope work will allow me briefly to summarise what are some of its great attractions. Microscopical work is one of those studies which can be pursued everywhere, for there is no place where objects for study may not be found, added to which it is quite independent of the weather or of the time of day, as artificial light can always be used, and in fact many microscopists seldom use any other. Then it is a silent work, and disturbs no one, and requires but a small space for the apparatus. It also tends to develop habits of care and neatness, as the smallest speck of dirt shows most prominently under the lens, and without neatness it is impossible to keep the instrument in order, much more SO to make any accurate observations. Again, the patient investigation required, the measuring and drawing of those Objects under examination, create very careful habits of Observation, which react on the observer and make him more careful in other matters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, 1893, Vol. 12 On a recent occasion, Lord Kelvin (or rather Sir William Thomson, for he had not then risen to the rank of a "scientific peer"), in the course of a highly interesting lecture on "Motivity," remarked, with reference to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, that he would not attempt to explain the law that evening, "for," as he said, "it could not be explained satisfactorily with less than six hours of tutorial instruction." Now, the same thing is true of polarised light, but with this difference, that to explain that thoroughly, about twelve hours of "tutorial instruction" would be about the minimum.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, 1887, Vol. 6: The Journal of the Postal Microscopical Society What, then, is the special mission of the Postal Microscopical Society? Let us seek an answer in its history What was the first conception of the society by Mr. Atkinson, its first President? He says in his first letter to Science Gossip, in May, 187 3, Let a certain number of persons, living in different parts of the country, agree to form a Postal Cabinet Association, and in his letter he further developes a plan, which, after modification and assistance from Mr. Allen, our present secretary, resulted in the establish ment of our society: the essence of the whole being the association Of a number of workers separated from each other by long distances, and thus isolated in their work but now, by means of the post, linked together into a brotherhood, and enabled to communicate with each other, and to obtain en couragement, sympathy, and instruction from intercommunication.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, 1889, Vol. 8: The Journal of the Postal Microscopical Society I think we may fairly congratulate ourselves upon the marked improvement in the character of our boxes resulting from the alteration Of the Rules, whereby each member is called upon to contribute from six to twelve slides simultaneously, together with accompanying notes, for instead of a heterogeneous collection of unconnected slides as heretofore, we have now, for the most part, connected series bearing upon one and the same subject, which thus receives a much fuller elucidation than was otherwise possible, and is more calculated to elicit notes of greater value. As regards these, however, there still seems to be much to be desired, for while according a full meed Of praise to the excellent notes and admirable drawings that accompany a number of the boxes, there are frequently others with which they are Of a very meagre and insufficient character, or sometimes entirely omitted, such boxes making the round Of the various circuits without either giving or acquiring much information that is of any value - for the three evenings allowed to each member for the examination of the slides and the addition of notes must necessarily be very insuffi cient, Where members like myself have their time usually fully occupied. It may, then, be worth while to consider whether this state Of things may not be in some measure obviated. Having had occasion to visit Bath (the headquarters of our Society) at the commencement of the present year, I took the opportunity to suggest to our excellent Secretary what appeared to me as likely to lead to a considerable improvement in this respect, viz., the formation of what may be called Correspondence Circles amongst our various members, whereby such as are working at the same or allied subjects Should be brought into communication with each other, irrespective of the ordinary circu lation of slides as at present existing. The work of each member should be submitted to the other members of their special circle for comment and friendly criticism, and by judicious questions and replies a much larger amount Of valuable information would be elicited than seems to be at present practicable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, 1884, Vol. 3: The Journal of the Postal Microscopical Society Work of an exclusively original nature scarcely comes within our scope, and is perhaps better fitted to find publicity in the records of our learned societies 3 and from the majority of our members such work is perhaps scarcely to be expected. We find, accordingly, that a considerable proportion of the Notes in our note-books are evidently intended by the writers for the informa tion of their fellow workers, who may not, perhaps, have the time or opportunity to look up works of reference for themselves. Far be it from me to deprecate a practice from which I have myself so frequently derived pleasure and instruction, or to do otherwise than recognise, that by this means the objects of the Society are largely fulfilled. Still, I think that where adequate study has been made of the subject, there will always occur, as indeed there frequently do occur, observations of an original nature not necessarily of scientific value, but such as must greatly increase the interest with which the communications are likely to be read, something beyond what we may expect to find even in the best books of reference; such observations, I may add, make the subject in some sense the author's own. While gladly recognising the extent to which these attributes are found in the work of many of our members, and the excellence of the illustrations with which they are frequently adorned, I take this opportunity of indicating one direction in which I venture to think improvement is still possible. I have drawn up and annexed a classified list of the various subjects treated of in the note-books, and shall content myself here with mentioning a few which seem specially worthy of notice.
