Evening Meetings. 



In conjunction with the Natural History Society two Even- 

 ing Meetings were held. The first on the nth of November, 

 1902, your President in the chair, a lecture on " The Life and 

 Death of Trees " was delivered by Professor M. C. Potter, 

 M.A., with lantern illustrations. The lecturer sketched the 

 growth of the young stem up to the fully formed timber, and 

 then showed how various fungoid growths bring about the 

 decay and death of the tree.
