PROCEEDINGS OF THE SECTIONS 



(IN ABSTEACT.) 



MEDICAL SECTION. 



At the preliminary meeting held in April, the following officers 

 were elected — Chaiiman : Dr. Crago. Committee : Drs. P. S. 

 Jones, W. H. Goode, E. F. Ross, W. Chisholm, A. Shewen, and 

 S. T. Knaggs. 



Seven general meetings were held ; they were well attended, 

 but there was a lack of animation and interest in the discussions 

 as compared with the previous year. Special mention should be 

 made of the excellent and valuable papers read by Drs. ^ ewmarch 

 on " The Climate of New South Wales," Dr. Hankins on Wmd 

 Instruments," and Dr. Clubbe on "The After-treatment of 

 Tracheotomy." 



Exhibits were made by Drs. Shewen, MacCormick, Chambers, 

 Work all, Watson, Jenkins, and Crago.
