A report on the state of the Society's property and the 

 annual report of the Council were read as follows : — 



Annual Report of the Council for the Year 1915-16. 

 (1st May to 26th April). 



The Council regrets to report that we have lost by death 

 seven ordinary members, and one Clarke Medallist. Four- 

 teen members have resigned. On the other hand, six 

 ordinary and two Honorary members have been elected 

 during the year. 



To day (26th April, 1916) the roll of members stands at 

 300. 



The Clarke Memorial Medal was awarded to Professor 

 W. A. Haswell, of the Sydney University. 



During the Society's year there have been eight monthly 

 meetings and ten Council meetings. 



The holding of the Annual Dinner has been dispensed 

 with owing to the continuance of the War. 



In order to do honour to their colleagues, Major Professor 

 David and Captain Professor Pollock, prior to leaving for 

 the front, the Council entertained them at Sargent's Cafe 

 on Thursday, 3rd February, 1916. 



A Section of Public Health and Kindred Sciences was 

 established during the year.
