Photographic Section. —The membership of this Section 
and the attendance at its meetings has been well maintained 
during the past year. The advantages of joining the Photo¬ 
graphic Section deserve to he more widely known to those 
belonging to the general Society who practice the art of 
photography, without belonging to any regular Photographic 
Club or Society. 
The Section does not depend only upon the work done by 
its own members, hut enjoys the further privilege of being one 
of the Affiliated Photographic Societies, so that much of the 
work contributed by the numerous other incorporated societies 
is available for the Section’s meetings. 
During the year Mr. M. Spence, one of the Hon. Secs., 
gave demonstrations to beginners, and Mr. Bellerby a similar 
series in Carbon printing to more advanced workers. 
The Lantern Exhibitions given each Spring in the Museum 
Theatre always seem to he popular, and large audiences are 
proof of the interest aroused in the Section’s work. The terms 
of subscription are,—for Members and Associates of the 
Philosophical Society, 2/6 per annum : and for Non-members 
of the same, 5/- per annum. Any lady or gentleman wishing 
to join has merely to enclose the subscription, and to intimate 
bis or her desire to become a member to either of the joint 
Hon. Secretaries.
