PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS FOR 1905. 
(A. W. MERA.) 
Gentlemen, 
We have again arrived at the ending of another year of our 
Society’s work, and I am once more called upon for an annual address. 
I believe it has been remarked, on high authority, that Presidents 
of Societies frequently make a great mistake in endeavouring to intro¬ 
duce a certain subject into their annual addresses, and that the address 
should be composed of a general resume of the Society’s work during 
the past year, as well as of an annual account of what has taken place 
outside its own narrow limits; and also that it should give the Presi¬ 
dent an opportunity of giving suggestions for the Society’s progress.
