Association affairs have been kept very quiet while our President has been away. Since my last report we have had two addresses, with demonstrations, on " Invalid Cookery," in the School of Domestic Instruction, most kindly given by Mrs Gardner. Dr. B. W. Anderson gave us a most interesting paper, on 18th May, on " Some Lessons we may Learn from Work Done by the Army Surgeons in the Japanese Campaign." We had one Council meeting (5th May), when the question of badges was dealt with. It was elecided that Life members should

be accepted. After some discussion Mrs. Leslie proposed, and Dr. Acland seconded, that £2 2s. should be the subscription for Life membership. Miss Thurston proposed as an amendment, anel it was seconded by Miss Collins, that the subscription should be £2 10s., and this was finally carried. The President (Mrs. Irving) was away for two months on a visit to Sydney and Brisbane. She has kindly placed her house at the disposal of the Association for a social

evening. Nurse Maude has also promised to*give a lantern lecture, on her visit to the Holy Land.
