Library. 

 The Library of the Society now contains over 13,000 

 volumes, in addition to a large number of pamphlets and 

 other documents. Many of these are of great value, and 

 the upkeep of the Library is becoming an increasing tax 

 c^n the Society's resources. An extension of the present 

 Library accommodation is becoming a necessity. Owing to 

 the risks of transportation no books have been purchased 

 for several years past with the money derived from, the 

 Morton Allport Memorial Fund, but next year it is pro- 

 posed to acquire a number of volumes with the income 

 obtained from this fund.
