which calls for very special attention. Your Council has to 
express its thanks to the guides who were responsible for the

A. B. Wilkinson, carries on the whole of its organisation. 
Selborne Society Saturday Afternoons.— Your Council 
has the pleasure of recording another most successful series of 
afternoon visits to places of interest during the winter months, 
which have again been organised by Mrs. Percy Myles and 
others. The visits were as follows : —

In addition to the above, two special visits were made at 
which only a limited number of members could be present by 
invitation of the Council, viz., to St. James’s Palace on March ig, 
and to Apsley House on February 6. Permission was given
