they are sent. All Cheques and Postal Orders should be crossed “ London 
and Westminster Bank.” 
On application to the Secretary, forms may be obtained for authorising 
the regular payment, by the Bankers of individual Members, of each 
annual subscription as it falls due. Members are particularly invited to 
avail themselves of these Bankers’ orders, in order to save trouble both to 
themselves and to the Society. When payment is made to the London and 
Westminster Bank, as the Bankers of the Society, it will be desirable that 
the Secretary should be advised by letter of such payment, in order that

posted to the credit of the proper person. No coin can be remitted by 
post, unless the letter be registered.
