JUL ANNIE, UO77S Page 94 MEMBERSHIP NOTES Recently members received a copy of the supplement publication Seth Arca Whippie, Great Lakes Marine Artist. It should be noted that this publica- tion was paid for, in part, by additional funds realized through Sustaining Memberships. These members, appreciating that they are unable to contribute in other ways to the Institute, aid in the way they can by doubling their dues payment. This gesture of faith is appreciated, and we are happy to have been able to prepare this supplement as tangible evidence of their contribution. For those members who may wish additional copies of the book, they are available over the counter at Dossin Museum, or by mail, at $2.00 per copy. MEETING NOTICES There is no meeting in July. The next entertainment meeting will be the annual Dinner With the Author on September 14, at Harmonie Club Hall in Detroit. Notices will be sent to all members in the Detroit area. If you live elsewhere and want the information, please send a self-addressed and stamped envelope requesting the mailing. Business meetings are scheduled for August 24, October 26, and January 4, 1974, all to be held at Dossin Museum at 8:00 PM.
