In furtherance of a remit from a previous General Meeting, your 

 Committee arranged for a course of Combe Trust Lectures, which 

 were delivered in the Town Hall in the latter months of last year. 



Although financially the results showed a loss, your Committee 

 are satisfied that these popular lectures served their purpose, being 

 attended in large numbers, and evidently appreciated by regular and 

 interested audiences. 



The deficit has been made good from the fund at the disposal of 

 the Society for the purpose of Popular Science Lectures. 



The Committee took steps to put into force the recommendations 

 from the last General Meeting with regard to the removal of ladies' 

 hats and the conduct of young persons attending the lectures, with, 

 they hope, satisfactory results.
