Lectures Committee 



The course of lectures provided by the Club during the 

 winter of 1910-11 consisted of seven events. Five of these were 

 held in the Assembly Hall of the Normal School ; and on each of 

 these occasions the excellent lantern belonging to that institution 

 afforded invaluable service, under the management of Mr. J. W. 

 Gibson, in exhibiting to the audience the slides prepared by the 

 lecturer for the elucidation of his subject. 



The lecture of the 24th of January was delivered in the Hall 

 of the Carnegie Library, and was illustrated with charts, crayon 

 diagrams and sketches by the hand of Dr. Percy E. Raymond, 

 the lecturer of the evening. The Annual Address of the President , 

 Mr. Andrew Halkett, was also delivered in the Hall of the Car- 

 negie Library and immediately preceded the Annual Meeting 

 on the evening of 21st March. 



The audiences present at these events varied from 75 to 250 

 persons. After the delivery of the lecture on each occasion 

 opportunity was taken for questions and discussion in accordance 

 with the immemorial practice of the Club. Many interesting 

 exchanges of opinion and facts of personal observation in con- 

 nection with the subject of the evening were thus made public. 



The following is a lis:- of the events: 

 Dec. 6th, 1910 "Some Recent Developments in Canadian 

 Fisheries." Prof. E. E. Prince, Dominion Commissioner 

 of Fisheries.
