Your Committee is glad to announce its good fortune in 

 securing the services as Editor of Mr. A. W. Sheppard, F.R.M.S., 

 whose experience and knowledge of systematic biology will be of 

 great value to the Club. 



Finally, your Committee desires to thank the officers for their 

 services during the past year, and to beg all members to join 

 them in the endeavour to farther the interests of the Club and 

 to secure its prosperity in the future. There are many ways of 

 doing this, which in some degree are in the power of every individual 

 member. Those members possessing special knowledge can assist 

 both Secretary and Editor very materially ; others, with time to 

 spare, might help in many ways, and, again, those whose only 

 conscious quality is sociability might help new members to find 

 that relation to their environment which has been enjoyed by so 

 many in the past.
