ANNUAL KKPOP.T 



6. Secretaries. 



The duties of the office of Secretary have been discharged 

 during the year by Mr. E. Walter Maunder, Lecture Secretary ; 

 Mr. E. J. Sewell, Secretary for General Purposes ; and Dr. Thirtle, 

 Editor of the Journal. This arrangement was carried out for 

 the first time during 1917, and it has worked excellently, not- 

 withstanding all the stress of war conditions. The Council 

 heartily thank each of these honorary workers for their patient, 

 skilful, and successful efforts on behalf of the Victoria Institute, 

 and the more because each of them is responsible for the per- 

 formance of other onerous duties. 



It is with very deep regret that the Council have to report the 

 resignation by Mr. Maunder, since last December, of the post of 

 Lecture Secretary ; his services to the Victoria Institute have 

 been very great and of many kinds, and the Council are glad to 

 report that he will continue to render valuable aid as a member 

 of Council.
