COMMITTEE FOR 1909. 
Miss Homfray, H. B. Curwen, A. Denman Jones (Hon. Sec. 
“A” Portfolio), B. Park, Dr. H. Roger-Smith, R. W. Wylie, and 
H. Nevil Smart (Hon. Sec. “‘B”’ Portfolio and Section). 
The average attendance at the meetings, exclusive of the Ex- 
hibitions, was somewhat less this year than last. 
A joint outdoor meeting of the Natural History and Photographic 
Sections was held at Denham on June 26th and proved a success, 
both from the photographic and social point of view. 
The experiment of holding the Annual Exhibition in January 
was satisfactory as far as the number of exhibits sent in was con- 
cerned, but, owing to the dense fog during the two days of the 
Exhibition, the attendance was poor and the Committee resolved 
to revert back to December. For this reason there were two 
Exhibitions during the year. 
At the Exhibition held in January, the Judge, F. J. Mortimer, 
Esq., F.R.P.S., found the average quality of the prints high.
