xlviil RECOMMENDATIONS AGREED TO. 
BoRINGS AT FUNAFUTI. 
No. 4.—On the recommendation of Section C (Geology and Mineralogy), 
it was agreed that the Council of this Association bring under the notice 
of the Government of New South Wales the importance of completing the 
borings at Funafuti Atoll while the drilling apparatus remains on the 
island, and while the old bore is in sufficiently good order to be utilised, as 
is now the case. 
PRISMATIC SANDSTONE QUARRY, BONDI. 
No. 5.—On the recommendation of Section C (Geology and Mineralogy), 
it was strongly recommended that the Government of New South Wales 
be asked to acquire the quarry of prismatic sandstone at Bondi, with the 
object of preserving it from destruction, as it is the best known example 
of a remarkable geological occurrence. 
SPELLING OF Native Names. 
[The following recommendation on the spelling of Native Names was 
forwarded by the Committee of Section F (Kthnology and Anthropology), 
but it was received too late for consideration by the General Council :— 
‘“‘We recommend to the General Council that communication be entered 
into with the Governments of the respective colonies directing their atten- 
tion to the desirability of the adoption by them of an uniform system 
of spelling native words, either names of places or other names, in 
accordance with the system adopted by the Royal Geographical Society 
of England and the Admiralty.”’]
