the Rocks of Perthshire.” 
The Council have been pleased, as formerly, to allow the Lecture

REPORT OF LIBRARIAN. 
It is satisfactory to be able to report that a good appreciation of 
the advantages of the Library continues to be shown by the Members 
of the Society. But further its value has been proved by the numbers 
who have utilised it for consultation purposes, such as teachers 
attending the Saturday classes, and school children eager to acquire 
facts bearing upon their essay competition. These remarks apply 
both to the Lending and Reference Departments. Borrowed books 
number 222. During the year 40 volumes have been added to the 
Lending Library, and 29 to the Reference—in all 69 volumes, so that 
the Council cannot be reproached with failure to keep pace with the 
times. 
Since last Report, the arduous and important task of constructing 
a new catalogue, embracing all books to the present date, has been 
undertaken. This work has now reached an advanced stage, and it 
is hoped that it will very soon be in the hands of the Members. 
REPORT OF EDITOR.
