After due considera- tion, the Council proposed that this anomaly be rectified, and that corres- ponding alterations be made in various parts of Rule 3. The Council's Resolution to effect these changes was put to the vote and carried unani- mously. Mr. L. S. Smith was re-appointed Hon. Auditor. Messrs. H. W.
