    Equipment.—The furnishing of the Anatomy and Physiology departments has been increased. The accommodation in these departments has been enlarged. The votes-in-aid have helped the departments to cope with the extra numbers doing practical work, but the apparatus is not as yet cpiite adequate. The addition of an epidiascope now on order and more microscopes will greatly add to the facilities for demonstrations. The books on order from the same vote will bring the reference library and students’ library thoroughly up to date. The library with the new periodicals added is now the most effici¬ ently equipped part of the School. Financial.—The Government contributions were increased by votes in aid totalling $17,000. Part of this was unexpended owing to the delay in arrival of the epidiascope, the microscopes and certain books ordered under this vote through the Crown Agents in England. The revenue and expenditure for the year 1921 was as follows : — King Edward VII Memorial Fund.— Assets. Liabilities. $ c. $ c.
