226 THE CONNECTICUT POMOLOGICAL SOCIETY. 



Resolutions. 



Mr. Gold : Mr. President, I have a, resolution which I 

 would like to introduce. 



"Voted: That this Society direct its Secretary to issue 

 the annual report at once, and have it ready for distribution 

 not later than April 1st, 1910. In consideration of the prompt 

 delivery of the report, and the extra expense thereby caused, 

 the salary of the Secretary shall be increased to three hundred 

 dollars per annum." 



Resolution seconded. 



The President: You have heard the resolution. Are 

 there any remarks on it? 



Mr. Gold: It is pretty generally recognized that the re-

 he has a good deal to do in connection with the institutes, and 

 there is a good deal to do in getting ready to issue a report

 to get the work through. In consideration of this special 

 work which he has to do, I think that this resolution ought 

 to pass, and I trust that it will meet with the approval of the 

 Society. 



The President: If there are no further remarks I will 

 put this resolution to a vote. All in favor signify by saying 

 "Aye." Contrary minds, "No." It is a unanimous vote and 

 is carried. 



Secretary Miles : Mr. President, I would like to say 

 in connection with this, that I fully endorse what the resolu- 

 tion contains, and I will try to live up to it. It will be very 

 valuable to the Secretary in getting after the stenographer 

 so as to get the report out on time. Some of the delay in
