Tue collecting this year has been done chiefly on the long 
excursions, though some members have done some work on 
other occasions. The weather, however, was not exactly of the 
nature to make fossil-hunting in the Lias brick-pits particularly 
clean work. When one has to wallow about in greasy clay, one 
prefers to go to clean limestone quarries from which one does 
not carry away pounds of material on one’s boot’ and trousers. 
Burrard, Krauss and Neame, P. were perhaps the most success- 
ful of those who came on many excursions, while Neame, i 
who was prevented from coming on most of the excursions, 
did excellent work when he did come. 
The system of having explanatory sections of the districts 
visited proved a good one, as members of the Section were 
better able to understand what beds they were working at, and 
‘also were able to compare the beds seen on different excursions 
with one another.
