 held every Monday evening, at the Sotiely's Kooms, on the corner of Dundas and Clarence 

 Streets ; and every tflfort is made to increase the interest felt iu the Society's work. 



The Monthly Business MeetiniiS are also kept up, and fairly attended. 



The Cabinet belonj;ing to the Branch is being trradually arranged, and the various orders 

 are now well represented both by Canadian and Foreign Specimens. 



A resolution was passed at the annual meeting. That a local collection of Insects should 

 be made of specimens obtained within walking distance of the city. 



It was also resolved that Eooks should be received in the Library on Deposit, proper- 

 means being taken for their safe keeping. 



Prizes were taken by the members of the Branch at the Western Fair held in October, 

 the proceeds of which were devoted by the recipients to the general work of the Londou
