Professor R. R. Graham, Secretary of the Guelph Centre, re- 

 ported as follows: — 



I have pleasure in forwarding the Annual Report of the work 

 done by the local Centre of the Society during the year 1913. Six 

 lectures were given during this time, all of which were much enjoyed, 

 and they helped very much to sustain the interest in astronomy 

 among our members. 



The Society's six-inch telescope, Mr. H. E. S. Asbury has taken 

 charge of, and he has been most kind during the year in setting it 

 up for the benefit of others. Not only has he issued a standing invita- 

 tion open to all our own members to visit his home to see through 

 it, but he has invited many others, who are not yet members of the 

 Society, and in this way has done a lot of good, creating interest in 

 astronomy, and spreading knowledge. 



The election of officers was left to a local committee, and they 

 report as follows:- — 



Hon. President— Col. A. H. Macdonald, K.C. 



Hon. Vice-President— Jas. Davison, B.A.

Mr. C. E. Bastin, Secretary of the Winnipeg Centre, reported 

 as follows: — 



Our meetings have been held regularly during the year except 

 during the summer months, when they were as usual discontinued 

 except for occasional informal observation meetings. 



Owing to the fluctuating nature of our population we lose a 

 certain number of our members each year by removal to other cities, 

 but these losses are replaced by new members so that our numbers 

 remain about the same. 



Officers for 1914: — 



President — Prof. L. A. H. Warren, M.A., Ph.D.
