Such of you as have visited the secretary's office lately have 

 found it a very crowded place. The books already in more than 

 fill the shelves, and the accumulation of other matter points to the 

 necessity of an early enlargement; but we are attached to the old 

 quarters and are loath to leave them, even for something more com- 

 modious, and we are hopeful that we shall get along another year 

 without increase of expense in this item. 



The doors of the office are ever open for the membership, and 

 we hope those from abroad when visiting the city will not fail to 

 take opportunity to call upon the secretary and see the equipment 

 of our office and library.
