4 Proceedings. 



Part II will be separately paged from the Transactions, so that it may 

 be bound by itself, if so desired. It is hoped to issue it in three or four 

 separate portions, so that it may form a current record of the scientific work 

 being done throughout the Dominion. It wiU thus serve to keep members 

 of the various societies informed of the work that is being done elsewhere, 

 and it is hoped that in this way interest may be stimulated, and the branches 

 of the Institute materially strengthened, and more closely brought into 

 touch with one another.
