ANNUAL REPORT FOR. 1908. a 
The rules of the Society were revised, and a Vice-Presi- 
dent for the Federated Malay States, and an Honorary 
Librarian were added to the list of officers of the Society. 
The Library was arranged and catalogued at a cost of 
200 dollars, of which 50 dollars remains to be paid, and it was 
resolved to print the catalogue. 
An unusual number of books were bound at a cost of 
$450.50 and a new book case was bought. 
It was decided in accordance with an invitation from the 
Director of the Bureau of the International Catalogue of 
Scientific Literature, to establish a Regional Bureau to collect 
and transmit to the Home Bureau materials from works pub- 
lished locally for the Catalogue. 
A large portrait of the Right Reverend Bishop Hose, 
Founder of the Society, was presented to the Society by Dr. 
Galloway. 
The Treasurer's accounts are appended. The receipts 
from subscriptions were $55 greater than last year but the total 
receipts show a falling off of $262.24. This is due to the 
smallness of receipts from sale of Journals. A sum of 
5615.50 has been spent on the library and as a result the total 
expenditure of the year amounts to $1154.53, a sum larger than 
last year’s amount by $163.37.
