The Canadian Entomologist, the monthly journal of the Society, 

 continues to maintain its high reputation and its wide circulation 

 in spite of the increased subscription price. The 46th volume, com- 

 pleted in December last, is the largest and most fully illustrated that 

 has yet been published. 



During the year 1914 and since the last meeting of the Royal 

 Society, the Ontario Entomological Society lost two of its best known 

 members. Mr. H. H. Lyman perished in the disaster to the "Empress 

 of Ireland" on the 29th of May — a few days after he had presented 

 his report as delegate of this Society. Dr. William Saunders, ex- 

 Director of the Dominion Experimental Farms and one of the charter 

 members of this Society, died at his home in London on September 

 13th. In his Presidential Address at the Annual Meeting in T ronto, 

 Dr. Hewitt spoke very feelingly of the loss of these two highly esteemed 

 members and ex-presidents of our Society, and paid a high tribute 

 to their memories. Besides, our worthy and revered member. Rev. 

 Dr. Bethune, who knew both very intimately for many years, has 

 written notes of high appreciation in the 45 th Annual Report. 



II. — 16th Annual Report of Women's Canadian Historical Society 

 of Ottawa, 1914-1915. 



By Carolyn A. Gullock, Hon. Rec. Secy, and Delegate. 



The years 1914-1915 will be handed down in Canadian History 

 as years involved in the greatest world war. Instead of celebrating 

 peace, Canada is sending her sons to aid the mother country in up- 

 holding the principles of truth and justice. 



And though we cannot yet foretell the ultimate issue of the 

 gigantic struggle, we are nevertheless absolutely convinced that right 

 must eventually triumph over vaunted might, and humanitarian 

 ideals over organized oppression.
