Societies should send to the Joint Committee of Section E and Section C information as to the local names of geographical and topographical forms. But there was one other point he should like to bring before the members of the Corresponding Societies, and that was the desirability of sending to the Royal Geographical Society reports and copies of any of their publications which contained papers dealing with questions of distribution, so that these might be noticed in the Bibliography of Geography which is prepared by the Librarian of the Society. Extracts of some of the papers might then appear in the Monthly Notes, and thus be communicated to the geographers of this country. Miss Ethel Sargant said that she was not the representative of Section K, but Mr. Stebbing had asked her to report as to the information she had received with regard to orchids in reply to the appeal which had been made on a former occasion. The only communication she had received was from a Tunbridge Wells member. She had also, after many inquiries, got a little information with regard to the leaves of orchids; but none about the seedlings, respecting which information had been also solicited. The Rev. J. O. Bevan moved a vote of thanks to the Master and Fellows of Gonville and Caius College for the services they had rendered to the Conference by enabling them to meet in that interesting room and allowing them likewise to gather in the small library, which some of them had taken advantage of. There were various reasons why they should give that vote; one was that the College had introduced them to the information that Humility and Virtue lead to Honour. Mr. Hembry cordially seconded the vote, and the motion was carried with enthusiasm. The Rev. T. R. R. Stebbing moved, and Mr. Hopkinson seconded, a vote of thanks to the Chairman, which was carried with applause and briefly acknowledged. 1904.
