The President moved the adoption of the Eeport of the Council for 

 191X. This v/aS seconded by the Treasurer, and carried unanimously. 



The Eev. G. H. Engleheart observed that the number of F.C.C. 

 awards m.ade during 1911 showed no increase over those of 1905, 

 although the number of exhibits was probably greater. Those awarded 

 to Orchids amounted to 82 per cent, of the total number recommended, 

 which seemed hardly fair to the importance and beauty of other 

 i subjects. 



I Mr. Engleheart further suggested that the Gold Medal be made in 

 I two. grades — large and small — ^to differentiate between degrees of gold 

 I medal excellence.
