Museum. 



No additions have been made to the collections in the Museum 

 during the past year. 



The Committee having taken into consideration the fact that no 

 general cleaning of the specimens in the Society's Museum has 

 taken place since the Collections were placed in their present 

 cabinets, and also that a partial rearrangement of some of the series 

 was desirable, recommended to the Council that the necessary work 

 should be undertaken in the course of the coming spring and summer. 

 The Council have adopted this recommendation, and the work will 

 be carried out accordingly.
