NOTE. 



We are, unfortunately, unable to print the usual notes of 

 the proceedings of our societies, as arrangements are being 

 made for a different system, and they are consequently 

 held over. Since our last issue the Gordon College Science 

 Club has amalgamated with the Geelong Field Naturalists' 

 Club and we will give an account of the arrangements 

 made in. our next issue. In consequence, the Geelong 

 Naturalist has definitely ceased publication, and it is possible 

 that a complete index to the six volumes of this Journal 

 will be shortly printed by the new society.
