The Association of Public School Science Masters fixed their annual meeting for Jan. 16, and accepted a proposal by Mr. R. H. Thwaites to read a paper for discussion at that meeting on the subject of the possible fusion of the teaching of mathematics and science in public schools. I wrote to Mr. Pendlebury, pointing out the interest of the subject to us, and suggesting that our meetings ought not to clash. In reply, he requested me to open a similar discussion at our meeting to-day. I hope I have made it clear that the suggestion that the subject is ripe for consideration is originally due to Mr. Thwaites.
