A year or two ago the lack of new names on our programme was 
a source of anxiety; in the last report we were able to point to one

It is with feelings of regret—that are shared by his co-secretary— 
that Mr. E. Harris announces his enforced retirement from active 
duty owing to ill health. We are confident, however, that his 
successor, Mr. T. H. L. Grosvenor, will both deserve and receive 
the same cordial support as has been accorded in the past to the 
retiring secretary.
