Abstract
THE anthropological section met in the Town Hall, Southport, under the presidency of Prof, Johnson Symington, F.R.S., of Queen's College, Belfast, and, as usual, attracted large audiences. The programme was a full one, and. the principal communications were in the department of Egyptian, Mediterranean, and British archæology, a fact which is.partly attributable to the widespread feeling—very clearly expressed by the President of the Association in the course of one of the discussions—that the human sciences, in the older and more academic sense, fall properly within the scope of the Association's work, and merit scientific recognition.
