Extract

Our society really owes its origin to an enthusiastic interest in entomology on the part of two young men who were beginning a study of insects shortly after the middle of the last century, and to the support and encouragement given them by a college professor who himself had a non-professional interest in entomology. These two young men were Charles James Stewart Bethune and William Saunders. The former was to become headmaster of Trinity College School and later head of the Department of Entomology and Zoology at the Ontario Agricultural College.
