Antrim, where it plays an important part in the weathering of the 

 rocks. The slides are neatly mounted, forming an instructive 

 series, and we have much pleasure in awarding this Prize to 

 Mr. Strachan. 



Two members entered the competition for the President's 

 Prize, No. r5, and from time to time during the year sent their 

 collections to Mr. Foster. This Prize is awarded to Mr. A. W. 

 Stelfox, who displayed great energy in collecting, and returned 

 specimens of Woodlice from 17 Irish Counties. These embraced 

 16 species out of the 25 known to exist in Ireland, and among 

 them were no less than 14 new County records. 



For Miss M. K. Andrews' Prize, No. 16, Mr. Robert Bell 

 submits a collection of 22 varieties of Zeolites from the Basalt of 

 Co. Antrim and Co. Derry, including one of Gyrolite (from 

 Carnmoney), this being the first record of this mineral in Ireland. 

 We consider this collection well worthy of being awarded the 

 Prize.
