NOTICES TO MEMBERS. 
Thk Magazine: Tlie present issue is the first of the current Vol. 
which has appeared with only a single illustration, we however hope it will 
not prove the least interesting. We had hoped to have issued a coloured 
plate, but tlie artist has been unable to complete, it will however appear in 
next issue with other illustrations. 
The Month's Arrivals : Mr. Tescheniaker, who usually supplies 
these, lias been taking holiday and away from his library and dealers' 
establishments, lie has been unable to contribute any notes this month, and, 
owing to business pressure I have found it quite impossible to fill tlie gap. 
I may however say that practically the whole of the list given in September 
issue are still on sale. 
The CoUNCir, : The present Club year terminates on December 31st 
and the Hon. Editorial Secretary will be glad to hear from any member 
willing to serve on the Council for next year, so that voting papers may be 
distributed in accordance with the Club rules. 
We desire to express our sincere thanks for the hearty support that 
has been given to the Illustration and Deficit Fund, thereby enabling the 
present standard of the Club Magazine to be maintained. 
The Balance Sheet (somewhat belated owing to extreme business 
pressure pi eventing uiy getting the accounts ready for audit) is published 
in this issue, and we feel sure it must be a cause of congratulation for all, 
that with our small membership, so good a result has been obtained. 
The attention of our exhibiting members is drawn to the Notices and 
Show Advertisements on page 42.
