eluding meeting, and in the afternoon the 
second and last general meeting of the 
Association will take place. In the evening 
a banquet will be given in honor of Lord 
Kelvin, Lord Lister and Sir John Evans, 
at which there will probably be in all about 
four hundred guests. It is proposed to re- 
serve a number of tickets, about seventy- 
five, for those who may not have an 
opportunity of claiming one at an earlier 
date. 
The full number of Sections will meet at 
Toronto. Within the last few years the 
number has increased from eight to ten, the 
increase being due to the removal of Physi- 
ology and Botany from Section D (Biology), 
which is now called Zoology. Section I 
(Physiology) only meets where there is a 
physiological laboratory, and consequently 
it will be in session at Toronto. The 
Presidents of the various Sections have 
been specially chosen for the Toronto meet- 
ing: Professor Forsyth, D.Se., F.R.S., of the 
University of Cambridge, for Mathematics 
(Section A); Professor William Ramsay, 
Ph.D., F.R.S., for Section B (Chemistry); 
Dr. G. M. Dawson, C.M.G., F.R.S., Direc- 
tor of the Dominion Geological Survey for 
Section C (Geology); Professor L. C. Miall, 
F.R.S., F.L.S., for Section D (Zoology); 
Dr. J. Scott Keltie, See. R.G.S, for Section 
E (Geography); Professor Gonner, M.A.,

tistics); G. F. Deacon, M.Inst.C.E., for
