[May 24, 1873. 
of age, in which a hard and fast rule would work great 
hardship. He thought some remarks which had been 
made as to the desirability of re-opening questions which 
had been fully discussed at the Council quite uncalled for, 
seeing that unless matters were to be considered at the 
General Meeting, it was a mere farce to bring them 
before it. No doubt the Council had done their best, but 
he could not consider it a mark of wisdom to go out of 
their way to propose prohibitory measures calculated to 
prevent young men entering the business. 
Mr. W heeler agreed with the remarks of Mr. Carteighe, 
and considered that an apprenticeship qualification was the 
only means of preventing the cramming system, under 
which a young man might pass an examination, though his 
practical knowledge might be almost nil. 
The amendment was then put and lost, eight hands only 
being held up in its favour. 
The original motion was thereupon put and carried. 
Mr. Urwick proposed a vote of thanks to the President 
for his able conduct in the chair; desiring at the same time 
to express on behalf of the members generally what he 
knew was their feeling of gratitude for the long-continued 
and conscientious services rendered by Mr. Haselden to 
the Society. He was about to retire for a time from 
the Council, but he hoped before very long that he would 
resume the seat at the Board which he had so long and 
worthily filled. 
The motion having been carried by acclamation, 
The President said, I am very much obliged to you, Mr. 
Urwick, and to you, gentlemen, for the kindness you have 
shown towards me at all times. I have only one thing to 
add, that though I part with you as a Councillor, I do not 
leave you as a member of the Society. 
This terminated the proceedings, which had lasted about 
five hours.
