We have to congratulate this Section on having brought 

 forward three new contributors of Papers, which have been 

 excellent in quality and awakened much interest in subjects not 

 previously treated. 



Your Committee have met frequently during the past year 

 for the purpose of arranging Excursions and Lectures, and in 

 this way we have endeavoured to stimulate our Members to fresh 

 exertion. 



Without the aid of the Members of the Society your 

 Committee would be powerless for good, and therefore we must 

 call on all to do their best during the coming year, so that our 

 Twenty-second Anniversary may show no falling oif from the 

 pleasant memories of the past twenty-one years.
