Polygonacecie, Salicciceae, Juncus, Carex, Filices and 
Charo'phyta were represented but sparingly or not at all. 
It might be desirable for members to concentrate a little 
more on these, and on some of the many hybrids that occur 
in the various genera. 
I much regret to have to remind some members once again 
that there is room for improvement in their labels. What I 
should like to impress upon members is that most of the 
collections of plants now being made will, or certainly ought 
to find a home eventually in some public herbarium, and 
that they would not like to see their own plants there badly 
labelled. Another point requiring attention is to avoid 
sending the plants on sheets of paper that are much larger 
than is required. It takes some time to cut these papers down 
to the size necessary to send the return parcels to those 
members who adhere strictly to the rules, and it is not fair 
to put this extra burden upon the distributor, whose task, 
under the best circumstances, is not a light one. A copy of 
the Rules would with pleasure be sent to those members who 
do not possess one, if application is made to the Treasurer 
(or Secretary). 
To our general Referees, and to Messrs. E. G. Baker, 
J. Fraser, W. 0. Howarth, J. E. Little, J. E. Lousley, W. H. 
Pearsall, H. S. Thompson, A. E. Wade, A. J. Wilmott, and 
Lt.-Col. A. H. Wolley-Dod, we tender most grateful thanks 
for their many interesting and valuable notes.

Distributor , 1931-32. 
The Club is greatly indebted to Mr. Goode, our Treasurer, 
for having carried out in so thorough a manner the arduous 
duties of Distributor. It may be difficult for those who have 
not had such an experience to appreciate the immense amount 
of work this sometimes entails. I would also personally thank 
him for lessening my own labours. If his health permits, 
Mr. Goode hopes to distribute again next winter, and parcels 
should be sent to him by December I. 
By carefully reading Mr. Goode’s comments on untidy or 
illegible labels, incidentally the future work of both Distributor 
and Editor might be greatly lessened. It is hardly necessary 
to add that untidy sheets of large newspaper are already
