The article comments on the seventh annual joint meeting of the National Institute of Arts and Letters and the American Academy of Arts and Letters. The meeting took place in Jordon Hall, Boston, on November 1915. About fifty members of the Institute, of whom perhaps twenty were Academicians, attended the sessions. The Institute, limited to two hundred and fifty members, comprehends the Academy, a body of fifty men chosen as the most distinguished in the departments of literature, art, and music. President of the Academy, who it had been expected would occupy the chair at the first session, was unable to be present.
