The general expenses have risen during the year, not- 

 withstanding which the Hon. Treasurer's statement may be 

 considered satisfactory. It should, however, be mentioned 

 that bills due for payment immediately after this annual 

 meeting, will very largely reduce the present balance in hand. 



Members are again reminded of the very favourable rates 

 at which they can purchase back numbers of the Journal, 

 if ordered through the Secretary.
