Q—How long have you been a zoologist?
A—Why, I began special study, with special interests, when I was about 14 years old. I do not know when I became a zoologist. I am now 58, I think—no 57, I think that is right.

A—Well then, I accepted a position as associate professor of biology at the Woman's college, of Baltimore, it was then called, it is now Goucher college.
Q—How long were you there?

Q—Where did you work after that?
A—I worked in my own laboratory, which I called the Orchard laboratory, used that name in publication, which was my private laboratory, which I and a few advanced students in Oberlin college were working in. They were working with me, but by sub-rosa arrangement.

A—Sub-rosa.
Q—Is that a zoological term?
