II 
Prince and Princess of Wales, Members would endeavour to 
bring forward as good a display of Forestry as possible. 
ScoTrisH NATIONAL EXHIBITION, EDINBURGH, 1908. 
Mr W. H. Massie mentioned that this Exhibition was now to 
go on. The minimum Guarantee Fund had been exceeded, 
and if properly supported the Exhibition would be a success. 
He suggested that the Society should have an adequate repre- 
sentation of Forestry which would interest visitors to the 
Exhibition, and that the Society might subscribe to the 
Guarantee Fund. On the motion of the Chairman, the matter 
was remitted to the Council, with powers. 
MoTIONS TO BE DISPOSED OF. 
Mr A. B. Ropertson, The Dean, Kilmarnock, submitted the 
following motions, of which notice was given at last Meeting, 
viz.:— That the seven members of Council who retire each year 
be not eligible for re-election for one year from the date of 
their retiral.” Mr R. B. Larrp seconded the motion. Mr 
FOTHRINGHAM moved the previous question. He said it might 
be very inconvenient if certain of the retiring Councillors were 
not eligible for re-election, because it might be that the Society 
would lose the services of some of the best men at a time when 
they were best able to help. Mr G1iLLanpeErs seconded the amend- 
ment, which, on being put to the Meeting, was carried by a large 
majority. Mr Rosertson then submitted his second motion, 
viz.:—That the Council again consider the advisability of 
holding the Annual Meetings in different centres, namely, 
Edinburgh, Perth, and Glasgow in rotation.” The motion was 
not seconded, and therefore was not put to the Meeting. 
Notice or MortIon. 
The PRESIDENT, on behalf of the Council, gave notice of the 
following motion for discussion at next Annual Meeting, viz.:— 
“That the revised Laws and By-Laws, as sent in proof to all 
members of the Society, be approved and adopted in place of 
the existing Laws and By-Laws.”
