Abstract
THE South African Association for the Advancement of Science met in annual session for the fifteenth time in what will soon be the “university town” of Stellenbosch during the first week in July, under the presidency of Prof. John Orr, of the South African School of Mines and Technology, Johannesburg. The sectional meetings were held in the buildings of the institution at present known as Victoria College, but which will become the University of Stellenbosch from April 2, 1918. On the afternoon of Monday, July 2, the visitors were officially welcomed to Stellenbosch by the Mayor, and on the evening of that day, in the Conservatorium Hall, the president took the chair and delivered his address, an abridgment of which appeared in NATURE of September 27 (p. 76).
