STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTS, ETC. 
NOTICE TO MEMBERS. 
To meet the wishes of the Board of Trade in economising 
paper and also bearing in mind the scarcity of labour at the 
present time, the Committee have decided to issue only the 
Secretarial and Financial Statements for the past year 
_ instead of a complete Report as hitherto. It is hoped that 
_ at the end of the Society’s Financial Year circumstances will 
admit of the Committee issuing a combined Report of the 
| past and present years. 
The Committee are glad to report that the Excursions 
and Field Meetings held during the present Spring and 
Summer months have been most successful and they trust 
‘that those arranged for August and September will be 
equally well attended. The Committee also look forward 
with pleasurable anticipation to a successful Winter Session, 
full particulars of which will be announced to Members 
in due course.
