The past of the Club has shown a steady and uninterrupted 

 progress in the work for which it was established ; its present 

 position is one of undoubted success. That this may continue 

 in the future must be the wish of all of us, and in order to 

 promote the welfare of the Club we must take care to maintain 

 the genial and friendly character which has always dis- 

 tinguished it ; we must assist as far as possible in the great 

 work of scientific education ; we must endeavour to extend 

 its already widely-spread influence with kindred Societies ; 

 and we must encourage, so far as lies in our power, the 

 prosecution of microscopical research.
