Av a Special General Meeting of the members of the Lantern Society, the subject of a uniform annual subscription for both country and town members was discussed, and it was décided that in future the subscription ke 10s. per annum. At present, a new lantern is being built, to which-will, from time to time, be added, as funds © permit, -various scientific attachments. The coming session of this society, which meets at 20, Hanover Square, promises to be one of great interest; those of our readers who are desirous of joining should lose no time in placing themselves in communication with the Hon. Sec., Com. C. I. Gladstone, 18, Arlington Street, London, S.W. Tur latest development is a Photographic Society, in which members pay a fixed sum (6d.) weekly. As soonas £8 is collected, a ballot is held, and the successful member is enabled to purchase photo apparatus ‘‘at ordinary cash discount prices,” to this amount. If this method spreads over the country, membership of a photographic club will convey a meaning somewhat different to what it at present does, and photographic and camera clubs, like watch clubs and portrait clubs, may perhaps be classed as of the same ilk. THe Band of Hope Union, which makes a special feature of using and dealing in the lantern, have acquired new premises at 60, Old Bailey, B.C., they having outgrown the old offices at 4, Ludgate Hill. The new premises are fitted with all necessary appliances.
