84 REPORTS ON THE STATE OF SCIENCE.—1918, 
The SECRETARY next gave a summary in the author’s absence of a paper 
by Mr. Percival Westell on ‘Grants to Regional Museums.’ 
The PresipENT did not think they could do more than express their thanks 
for the paper, and to say that they did not see their way to do anything 
further in the matter. If anyone should take up the case it should be the 
Museums Association. 
It was agreed to send a copy of the Arbor Day resolution, signed by the 
President and Secretar'y, to the United States Minister of Agriculture. 
In conclusion the Conference expressed its thanks to its President, and to 
the Geological Society for its kindness in lending the meeting room.
