Abstract
AS August draws nearer the organisation of the first Australian meeting of the British Association is gradually approaching completion. The overseas party will number, roughly, 350, and will for the most part leave England at the end of June or the beginning of July. The Blue Funnel liner A scanius is to convey a considerable proportion of the advance party for Western Australia, while the main body of the visitors will leave later in the Aberdeen liner Euripides (on her maiden voyage), and the Orient mailboat Orvieto. The latter will take on board at Fremantle the advance party, and will arrive at Adelaide on the same day as the Euripides, viz., August 8. Other lines and other routes will bring small detachments of members.
