The Council will !)e pleased to receive subscriptions from the members 

 towards the purchase of Cabinets and the necessary tubes and glass-capped 

 boxes for the display of the Society's collections, which have increased 

 largely during the past, few years. Until now, however, the Society has 

 not had the opportunity of rendering them available for consultation by the 

 members. This difficulty has now been removed, thanks to the kindness of 

 the Council of the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society, who have 

 liberally consented to the Society's collections being deposited in one of the 

 rooms of the Leeds Museum, so that it will in future be possible to examine 

 the collections at any time when the Museum is open. 



Before this can be done, however, it will be necessary to provide 

 Cabinets in which to place the specimens, and it will be obvious that a 

 special subscription is necessary, in view of the fact that for the very small 

 subscription of 5/- the "Journal of Conchology " is supplied to each member. 



It is intended to house the collections in a series of small Cabinets, at 

 an estimated cost of ^2 los. each, so as ultimately to facilitate the classifica- 

 tion of the collections. Of these it is wished to order at least half-a-dozen. 

 A list of subscriptions already promised is subjoined. 



Subscriptions may be paid to the Secretary,
