The Society's New Quarters. 

 The Treasurer gave an account of the present position of 

 the negociations for new quarters for the Society, saying that 

 No. 41, Queen's Gate was now almost certainly secured; the 

 cost of the Freehold, re-decorating and furnishing would be 

 about £9000, towards which a considerable sum in donations 

 and loans had already been promised. He urged upon the 

 Fellows the duty of supporting this project. The President, 

 the Rev. F. D. Morice and Mr. Bethune-Baker also spoke 

 in support of the scheme. Mr. Rowland-Brown suggested 

 approaching the Dept, of Agriculture with a view to obtaining 

 assistance, and also proposed a vote of thanks to ]\Ir. Sheldon 

 and the sub-committee, which was seconded by Dr. Cockayne 

 and carried unanimously.
