ANNUAL REPORT. 
— 
The Council has to report that during the past year an effort 
has been made to create a greater interest in independent research, 
as promoted by this Society, by encouraging science students of 
the University and the School of Mines to attend the ordinary 
monthly meetings, and also by giving more pennants to them by 
advertising in the daily press. These efforts have not been with- 
‘out success, but the membership remains almost VER INS 
The membership of the Society consists of 11 Hon. Fellows, 
68 Fellows, and 6 Corresponding Members 
The second part of the “ Memoirs," vot L, dealing with the 
Fossil Remains of Genyornis newtoni, from ‘Take Callabonna, 
the joint aingie of "Prof . E. C. Stirling, M.D., F. 
Director, and A. H. C. Zietz, F. L.S., C.M Z. S., Ass itant- Director, 
of the Adelaide Museum ; and the Physical Features of the Lake, 
by the first-named scientist, has been issued. There seems to be 
some outside interest in this work already, and, doubtless, when 
it becomes better known it will find a very prominent place 
amongst the scientific publie. Mr. Walter Howchin, F.G.S., 
has extended his researches on Past Glacial Action in Southern 
S., &e., 
ns 
able discoveries; while Prof. Ralph Tate, F.G.S., has brought 
under the notice of this Society the unique discovery of fossil 
remains in high Southern latitudes 
A card catalogue of the Society’ s books and sauny MU 
literature is now being prepared, which it is hoped will at once - 
make these valuable works more accessible to the Fellows and 
Members.
