 Society's small Library during the year, Vol. II and Vol. Ill,

 Parts 24, 25, 28 and 29; Derwent Naturalists' Field Club 

 Publication, Vol. II and IV. 



Districts of Cleveland. — At the last Annual Meeting I 

 suggested that it would be worth the consideration of the 

 Society as to whether it would not be advisable to divide the 

 Cleveland district into 4 or 5 divisions, and during the summer 

 months hold a meeting in each division, and that some 

 member should take one of the divisions and make all necessary 

 arrangements as to programme, route and guides, and personally 

 attend the meeting. This would enable more members to 

 take an active part in the work of the Society. Nothing 

 definite was decided as regards this, although the meetings 

 held last year were arranged so as to cover each portion of 

 Cleveland as far as possible. 



Microscopy. — With regard to the Microscopist Section, the 

 members of this Section, especially Messrs. Simpson and Punch, 

 have rendered great assistance at two of the meetings held 

 during the winter, and it has occurred to me, seeing the great 

 interest that has been taken in these meetings, whether it 

 would not be worth while this Section considering the 

 practicability of holding meetings in the winter months for 

 the purpose of furthering the study of Microscopy and 

 comparing and assisting one another as regards methods of 

 working, &c. 



Photo Survey.-I should be glad if some of our members would 

 take up the question of a Photographic Survey of the Cleveland 

 district, and by this means record all features of interest both 

 Physical, Geological and Archaelogical. We have a number of 

 members who are Photographers, and if each contributed 3 or 4 

 Photographs a year, we would soon have a good number of 

 Records for the Cleveland district. These should be placed in 

 an Album or albums, which would be placed in the Society's 

 Library and be accessible to members. This is a most 

 important subject and is being taken up by many Societies in 

 other parts of the country; a Record of the Physical and 

 Geological features, of the remains of Archaelogical interest, 

 and also Customs still lingering in out of the wny country
