LANTERN LECTURE. 
Dr. C. Fenner gave an extremely interesting lecture on “The 
Adurray River and its Basin,” and showed numerous slides which 
dealt with the physiography of the catchment and basin of the 
Darling and Alurray River systems, its rainfall, ecology, indus- 
tries and peoples. By means of the slides the rivers were traced 
from their sources, but special reference was made to the one 
river (the Alurray) which influenced the eastern half of the 
continent. 
BOOKLET ON NATIONAL PARK, BELAIR. 
A letter was received from the Secretary, National Park, 
Belair, to the effect that £25 was available for the publication of 
a booklet on the natural history of the reserve, provided mem- 
bers of the Section undertook the compilation of it. A motion 
was carried that the Section undertake the work, which actually 
was already in hand and that the account include a short refer- 
ence to the natural history of Alorialta and Waterfall Gully re- 
serves also. It was agreed that the booklet be issued in one 
part and that it be regarded as one or more numbers of the 
“South Australian Naturalist.”
