SEA-FISHERIES LABCRATORY. 87 
Dr. H. H. Hoffert, one of H.M. Divisional Inspectors 
of Technical Institutes and Evening Schools, and Mr. 
A. Harris, Inspector of Evening Schools for the district, 
along with Mr. J. P. Laws, another of H.M. Inspectors 
of Evening Schools, made an inspection of the teaching 
work that was being carried on and also of the equipment 
of the establishment. Professor Bunji Mano, Tokyo 
Imperial University, Japan, came to the laboratory in 
August and made enquiries regarding the system adopted 
by us in carrying on the classes for fishermen and school 
teachers. 
Our thanks are due to the United States Fisheries 
Department; the Smithsonian Institution; Mr. KE. W. L. 
Holt, the Scientific Adviser to the Irish Fisheries Depart- 
ment; and others for further additions to our library. 
A very fine enlargement of a photograph of the late 
Mr. John Fell, the first Chairman of the Sea-Fisheries 
Committee, has recently been presented to the Laboratory. 
This has been framed and placed on one of the walls of 
the class room.
