Your Council have pleasure in submitting their report for 

 the year 1899 : — 



In February the Society removed from Wakefield's Buildings 

 "to the rooms now occupied in the Technical College, Ann 

 Street, where every accommodation is afibrded for lectures and 

 demonstrations, the use of the lecture theatre being granted 

 when required. In obtaining these rooms the Society is greatly 

 indebted to the President, who, as soon as he was elected to that 

 position, endeavoured to secure more commodious rooms for the 

 Society, with the above result. 



Thirteen Council Meetings have been held during the year. 

 The attendance of officers will be found in Appendix A. 



Ten Ordinary Meetings of Members have been held, and the 

 attendance has been very satisfactory. A list of the papers read 

 at these meetings is given in Appendix B. 



In former years one of the most interesting features of these 

 meetings was the exhibition of specimens, models, etc., but the 

 Council regret that during the past two sessions very little has 

 been done in this direction, and would urge members to 

 endeavour to renew this instructive custom.
