A discussion centered around the former competition, as the majority of entries consisted of child portraits and the judges contended that these did not represent a typical Australian who would be recognized as such if the print did not bear a title. A member went so far as to assert that an aboriginal would be the only recognizable typical Australian!

The President, Mr. Robinson, gave an interesting talk on grain in emulsions, illustrated by photo-micrographs. Mr. Jenkins color slides were much appreciated.

There are vacancies for two members. Information from the Hon.Secretary.
