The Chairman. — " I beg to move myself — it requires no 

 seconder — the reappointment of Mr Galloway as Secretary."

Exhibitions and Competitions. 



Mr Robert Forbes, Kennet. — "The Forestry Exhibition at 

 the Highland Society at Stirling was a very good one, and we are 

 looking forward to another at Dumfries this year. We are going

 money for prizes, and I would now, in your name, thank the 

 Highland Society for their kindness in giving us all these 

 privileges."

 it were highly delighted with the arrangements. His Grace the 

 Duke of AthoU has kindly agreed to allow the Society to visit

 Scotland, but last year we thought it well not to go North, until 

 some of the work that had been going on would be at a more 

 interesting stage. I think it would be of great benefit to the 

 Society if they would take advantage of His Grace's offer.

 visit, but I suggest that that should be left to the Committee. 

 Probably about the beginning of July would be the best time

 this year in Perthshire, and that we thank His Grace for his 

 kind offer." 



The Chairman. — " I shall be very glad to do anything I can
