NOTES BY THE HONORARY SECRETARY 
It is thought that with such a creditable production as is 
now placed in the members’ hands they can have no hesitation 
in strongly recommending the Society to their friends and 
doing all in their power to secure new members. It naturally 
depends upon our income as well as upon the help members 
render in sending contributions to the Editors, whether the 
Journal is a quarterly or a half-yearly publication. 
The Committee have made arrangements for the rental 
of a building in Nairobi, which is to be specially erected for 
the Society in a central situation for the purpose of a Museum 
and meeting place, according to plans very kindly prepared 
by Mr. Rand Overy. 
The Museum will be thirty feet long by twenty-five feet 
wide, and there will be an adjoining room sixteen feet by 
fourteen feet for a Committee room. 
When this building is completed in a few months’ time, the 
Society will have a home and a meeting place, and be ready 
to commence the collection of specimens for what will some 
day undoubtedly become a National Museum. 
The Nairobi Municipal Committee, recognising the import- 
ance of the movement which we are now inaugurating, have 
recommended the reservation of a plot of land on the Sixth 
Avenue for the eventual erection of a National Museum. 
A notice will be sent to members when the building is 
completed, and the Committee will be grateful if they will do 
their utmost to make the Museum a credit to the Society by 
collecting specimens themselves and asking friends to forward 
any duplicates they may obtain for the Society’s collection. 
Specimens should be sent to the Honorary Curator, Mr. T. J. 
Anderson, Chief of the Entomological Division, Agricultural 
Department, Nairobi. 
John Sergeant, 
Honorary Secretary. 
Communications relating to the Journal and the general 
business of the Society should be addressed to the Honorary 
Secretary, Mr. John Sergeant, Chief Accountant, Public Works 
Department, Nairobi.
