CXXVIII THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA 
manner and under the conditions hereinafter prescribed, and discussed 
by correspondence among the members of the section. 
The title of any paper, memoir, or other production by a member 
intended to be discussed by correspondence, together with an abstract 
of its contents, may be sent to the secretary of the section to which it 
belongs at any time in the intervals between the meetings. If the 
secretary of the section (calling in expert aid, if he desire it) decide that 
immediate publication is important, and the section has sufficient funds 
at its disposal, the MS. of the complete paper, when received by the 
honorary secretary shall be immediately set up in the usual type by 
the printers of the Society, with the date of its reception marked 
prominently; and a printed copy shall be sent to each member of the 
section. A limited number of copies shall be sent to the author. 
All such papers shall be issued in such form and under such 
general title as the Council may determine, with a statement at the 
head to the effect that they are submitted to the members of the 
section for discussion, and are subject to revision, and that the 
Society is not responsible for their contents. 
The amount of money allowed to be used by any section for this 
purpose shall be determined from time to time by the Council of the 
Society. 
The papers thus submitted to any section for discussion by corre- 
spondence shall, at the next annual meeting of the Society, be again 
submitted to the section for further discussion, if desired, and shall 
then be subject to the ordinary procedure (as in Clause I.) necessary 
before publication in the Transactions. 
I1I.—Communications by persons not members of the Society may 
be submitted by members on the same conditions as their own pro- 
ductions. 
11. Associated Societies. 
Every scientific or literary society in the Dominion which may be 
selected by vote of the Society shall be invited by circular of the 
honorary secretary to elect annually one of its members as a delegate 
to the meetings of the Society, such delegate to have, during his term 
of office, the privilege of taking part in all general or sectional meetings 
for reading and discussion of papers, and to be empowered to communi- 
cate a short statement of original work done and papers published 
during the year by his society, and to report on any matters in which 
the Society may usefully aid in publication or otherwise.
