There are approximately 200,000 active mem-
bers enrolled in the Association. The membership

are payable on or before December 31. Dues re-
ceived during any year are credited to that year
unless otherwise requested. There are three kinds
of active memberships:

$2 Memberships give full membership
privileges, including a year’s subscrip-
tion to the N. E. A. Journal.

$5 Memberships give full membership
privileges, the Journal, the Research
Bulletins, and the annual volume of
Addresses and Proceedings.

$100 Life Memberships, payable in ten an-
nual instalments of $10 each, give,
for life, all of the privileges of the
$5 membership.

the “‘parent”’ Association is prerequisite to mem-
bership in any department.
