The Mississippi Valley Historical Association will hold its sixth annual meeting at Omaha, Nebraska, May 8-10. Plans will be discussed for inaugurating a quarterly publication in addition to the annual Proceedings, which has heretofore been the sole organ of the Association. The Proceedings for 1911-1912, which is just from the press, is a beautifully printed volume of 268 pages. Besides a number of papers which are of interest primarily to teachers of history, it contains the following articles: “The Settlement of the John Randolph Slaves in Ohio,” “The Quakers in the Old Northwest,” “The Western Reserve in the Anti-Slavery Movement, 1840-1860,” “The Mississippi Valley in the Movement for Fifty-Four Forty or Fight,” “De Soto's Line of March from the View Point of an Ethnologist,” “The Disintegration and Organization of Political Parties in Iowa, 1852-1860,” “Attitude of the Western Whigs toward the Convention System,” “Factors Influencing the Development of American Education before the Revolution,” “The Battle of Lake Erie.”

Membership dues in the Association are only one dollar a year, and members are entitled to the publications of the Association without additional cost. Applications for membership and for back volumes of the Proceedings should be sent to Clarence S. Paine, Lincoln, Nebraska.
