Mr. F. N. Pierce, who occupied the presidential chair 

 in 1910 and 191 1, and who was a member of the Council 

 for many years, having r.emoved from Liverpool, has been 

 elected to our roll of honorary members. 



Commencing the year with a membership of 114, there 

 has been added 11 new members, while 4 members have 

 resigned, three being due to removals. 



The membership now is 4 honorary and 5 corresponding 

 and III ordinary members, making a total of 120, being a 

 net increase of 6. 



The general meetings of the Society have been well 

 attended. Six interesting papers have been read, and the 

 exhibits have been of a high standard. A special feature at 

 some of the meetings has been the exhibition of new 

 apparatus and demonstrations of methods of working. 



Six field meetings were held during the summer months 

 and were well attended, the results adding to the enjoyment 

 and instruction of the ordinary members. The younger 

 members are specially invited to join these out-of-door 

 gatherings. 



The Council are arranging for an exchange of lecturers 

 with other Societies during 1921, and it is confidently hoped 

 that this mutual co-operation may be productive of the 

 highest benefits. 



A series of papers has been arranged for the second 

 portion of 1920/ 192 1 session, and your Council looks 

 forward to a continuance of the enthusiasm, diligence, and 

 good-fellowship that has characterised the Society's 

 gatherings for a considerable period.
