After nearly a quarter of a century as Hon. Treasurer of the South 

 London Entomological Society, Mr, T. W. Hall is retiring this year. 

 Owing to his removal beyond the London outskirts, and continued 

 increasing pressure of business, he has been compelled to give up the 

 office which he has held so long. It is a difficulty always to so mar- 

 shall the financies of a Society as to publish an adequate report of its 

 proceedings. With Mr. Hall's assiduity it has always, even during 

 the war period, been possible for the Council to publish an annual 

 which is a credit to the Society, and that " without breaking the 

 bank." To Mr. T. W. Hall we owe many thanks.
