A simple method for obtaining a class of variance stabilizing transformations from a given normalizing transformation is presented. The method is based on Curtiss's (1943) classical results on such transformations. Illustrations are given for a Poisson variate.

Key Words: Poisson variate • Variance stabilizing transformation
