AMENDMENTS. 



Amendments to the By-laws may be proposed in writing^ 

 by any member of the Society to the Board of Trustees at any 

 meeting of the Board of Trustees held at least two months 

 before the next annual meeting of the Society, and, on being 

 approved by a majority of the Board, shall be filed with the 

 Secretary in their original form or as amended at least thirty 

 days before such annual meeting, and shall subsequently be 

 submitted to such annual meeting ; or any thirty members 

 may propose amendments to be acted upon at any annual 

 meeting of the Society, without the approval of the Board 

 of Trustees, by filing the amendments in writing with the 

 Secretary thirty days at least before such annual meeting. 

 The vote on each amendment shall be " Yes " or " No." 



The Secretary shall, at least three weeks before the meet- 

 ing at which the same are to be considered, mail a copy of 

 every proposed amendment to each member of the Society at 

 his last address appearing on the records of the Secretary. 



All amendments proposed shall be printed on one ballot, 

 with a space for voting " Yes " or " No " opposite each 

 amendment, thus : 



Any amendment shall be adopted if it receives two-thirds 

 of the votes cast. The polls shall remain open for the pur- 

 pose of voting on any proposed amendments between the 

 hours of noon and four in the afternoon, and the voting shall 

 be by Australian ballot.
