The usual representative exhibits of the Native Flora were 
held during the Spring and Summer months in the Art Gallery 
of the Museum, and these proved to be of great educational value 
to members generally, and to students of Botany in particular. 
Much to the regret of the Committee, owing to the absence 
on military duties of the Curator, Mr. Alfred Newstead, F.E.S., 
it will not be possible to continue the exhibits of the Native 
Flora during the ensuing year, but it is hoped that circumstances 
will admit of this work being recommenced next Spring. 
In spite of the present state of our social life, the course of 
General and Sectional Meetings held during the winter months 
was of a high order, and the attendances were quite up to the 
average. 
As will be seen from the following list, the range of subjects 
was a very comprehensive one:— _
