6 I 4 [Proc. B.N.F.G.J 



have two original members exhibiting, a remarkable testimony, to 

 the study of Natural Science as a healthy recreation. The average 

 attendance at the Summer excursions was forty-two — a distinct 

 improvement on 191 1 — and, although the Summer of the past year 

 was a wet one, rain never interfered with any of the excursions. 

 The working of the Junior Section promises to be a success, but 

 some problems yet remain to be solved in connection with it, and 

 members are invited to send suggestions to the Junior Committee. 

 The celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Club's foundation 

 will be held next May. A good programme has been arranged, 

 and it is expected that many delegates from our sister clubs in 

 England will attend the meeting. The first business meeting of 

 the winter session will be held on Tuesday, 19th November, when 

 1 hope to have the honour of speaking to you on the Botanists of 

 the North of Ireland." The election of eight new members — 

 Miss D. Forth, Miss H. Ledgerwood, and Messrs. R. M'Creary, 

 J. W. Dunlop, N. J. Ledgerwood, R. Long, S. M. Macoun, and 

 R. J. Wight — terminated the meeting.
