SUMMERTIME, AND THE LIVING -FOR EXPLORERS IS SELDOM EASY What to do on a summer's day? If you were a NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC reporter, photographer, sci entist, or explorer, you might be leaning hard against a polar gale as your numbed hands tried to manipu late a camera. Or you might find yourself gliding like a begoggled, flippered wraith through the streets of a submerged city. The GEOGRAPHIC road isn't always easy. The price may be-and has been-discomfort and danger. But the goal is knowledge. What have those far-ranging GEOGRAPHIC men and women brought back? Many a missing piece in the mosaic of history. Many a startling picture of today's unknown. And, not infrequently, a glimpse into some facet of the future. You, as a member of the National Geographic Society, help make GEOGRAPHIC expeditions pos sible. Without investing an extra penny, you will aid even more in this continuing quest for knowledge by using the Summer Remittance Plan, to pay your 1961 dues during the summer months. In past years, widespread use of the plan has cut operating expenses by reducing the costly year-end clerical workload. As a result, dues remain low . .. funds are released for new research... improvements are carried out that keep the magazine and other Society publications leaders in their field. Even more could be accomplished if every member used the plan! We urge you, therefore, to respond to The Society's Summer Remittance Plan. And, you may use the coupon below to nominate your favorite acquaint ances for membership in The Society.
