The Annual Field Day was held at Beloeil Mountain 

 (St. Hilaire) on the 22nd of June and was a most suc- 

 cessful function. 



The Society hopes shortly to proceed with the erec- 

 tion of a new building especially adapted to its purposes, 

 through which even greater success may be expected in 

 its work. 



It would not be fair to close this report without pay- 

 ing a well deserved tribute to our Secretary, Mr. Alfred 

 Griffin, for his energy and loyalty in all matters con- 

 cerning the Society. He has completed twenty-five 

 years of service, and the fact that the Society is existing 

 to-day is in no small measure due to his efforts.
