            <p>
               <list type="simple">
                  <item>1.  We have
been obliged to move the office and would call your attention to the
new address, 135 Church Street. It was impossible to find quarters
that were in any way suitable outside of the business district.</item>
                  <item>2.  A good 
part of the time of the director is being used in
planning the October meeting of the Vermont Conference of Social
Work. I think we can assure you of a very interesting meeting. The
dates are October 20 and 21, and the place is Burlington.</item>
                  <item>3.  You will be glad 
to know that funds have been
promised for a third year's expenses, Our present resources will be
exhausted about the first, of February, 1928, and it is a very great
relief to us all to knew that the work will go on. There were four full
time workers engaged all summer. From this time on there will be
two office and field workers and a clerk. </item>
                  <item>4.   In view of the increasingly great amount of time that
the director has been expending on the Survey, curtailing other
sources of income, he has drawn on the present year's budget to the
extent of  $250.00 in salary. This is with the approval of a majority
of the members of the Committee and of the donor.</item>
                  <item>5.  The office staff is 
occupied chiefly with the
summarizing and tabulating of the statistical part of the report that we
are preparing to make. In other words, the aggressive part of the
study has been brought to a stop in order to draw conclusions and
prepare a report. Excellent cartwheel charts of the ten most important
families have been prepared during the past two months. A large
pedigree is brought within the compass of a comparatively small
sheet of paper by this method.</item>
                  <item>6.  A meeting of the Advisory Committee is 
called for 11:00 A. M., Thursday, October 20, is the Marsh Library. This comes
just before the first session of the Vermont Conference. Will you be
good enough to let me know as soon as convenient whether you will
be able to attend this Committee meeting? Expenses to and from
Burlington will be payable as usual out of the Eugenics Survey fund.</item>
