Godfrey, presided. The president made sympathetic reference to the bereavement suffered by Mrs. Lewis Eyre, members standing in silence as a mark of sympathy. Mrs. Godfrey, who was delegate to the recent conference in Wellington, gave a resume of part of the proceedings. Mrs. Godfrey was accorded appreciation for her interesting resume of the conference.
