While the forthcoming meeting will be of- ficially the fifty-sixth consecutive Annual Meeting, it Is, at the same time, the seventy- fifth anniversary bf the first Annual Meeting of the Iowa State Bar Association. Those familiar with the early proceedings of the Association will recall that the organization meeting of the Iowa State Bar Association took place in Des Moines, Iowa, on May 27, 1874. Judge James Grant of Davenport was the temporary chairman of the meeting and fifty-four attor- neys from all over Iowa attended. A constitu- tion was adopted, and It is interesting to note that the objects of the Iowa State Bar Associa- tion as set forth in Its first Constitution in 1874 are still contained in Article II of the present Articles of Incorporation of this Association.
