First Meeting: 2nd May, 1906.
Mr. R. Speight, President, in the chair.

Dr. Farr prefaced his ex-presidential address by expressing his regret that the committee of the New Zealand Institute appointed to organize the Hutton Memorial Fund had been confined to members of the Canterbury Institute. He also announced that the magnetic survey of New Zealand was almost completed.

Dr. Farr then delivered an address on “Electric Waves,” which was illustrated by numerous experiments.
