4 Notes and Comments. 
H. B. Muff; ‘The Geology of Ingleborough,’ by J. H. Howarth; 
‘The Aims of a Local Geological Society’ and ‘ The Causes of 
Volcanic Action,’ by D. Forsyth ; ‘Geological Photography,’ 
by Godfrey Bingley ; ‘Glacier Lakes of the Cleveland Hills,’ by 
P. F. Kendall; ‘The relation of the Geology to the Vegetation 
of the West Riding of Yorkshire,’ by W. G. Smith; ‘Some 
Drift Deposits near Leeds, |Re-printed from the ‘ Proceedings 
of the Yorkshire Geological Society,’]| by E. Hawkesworth ; 
‘River Capture in Yorkshire,’ by Rev. W. Lower Carter; 
‘The Eastern Extension of the Yorkshire Coalfield,’ by P. F. 
Kendall ; and ‘Report of the Magnesian Limestone Com- 
mittee,’ by A. R. Dwerryhouse. Lists of other papers to be 
consulted on the various subjects referred to are given, and 
add to the value of the abstracts. 
Presumably the ‘lack of funds,’ referred to in the Preface, 
which has accounted for the delay in the appearance of these 
Transactions, is also responsible for the brevity of some of the 
abstracts, and the omission of some papers altogether. The 
appearance of the publication would have been improved had the 
various lists of officers, etc., been put all together at one end of 
the pamphlet, instead of cutting up the reading matter. Mr. 
Hawkesworth’s map would also have been much clearer if the 
‘gravel patches’ had been shaded. We commend the Editors 
on the prominence given to /ocal papers—that by Mr. J. H. 
Howarth being particularly valuable—and trust that in future 
the finances of the Society will enable them to produce details 
of their proceedings more promptly and more fully. 
NATURE PHOTOGRAPHS. 
We have frequently, recently, called attention to the excellence 
of the illustrations appearing in books on natural history. A 
little volume just issued by Mr. T. N. Foulis* is an example. 
It is a companion to that noticed in this Journal for December, 
1905, but, if anything, the illustrations are even more attractive 
than in that volume. There are seventy in all, after photo- 
graphs by Charles Reid, and to these letter-press has been 
provided by the Rev. C. A. Johns, compiled from ‘ British 
Birds and their Haunts’ and other sources. By the courtesy 
of the publishers we are able to reproduce one of the most 
charming of the illustrations —entitled, ‘The Edge of the 
Moor.’ ii(Plate tT.)
