Leaflets {or the Help of Honorary Secretaries and Collectors.

WE think that our Honorary Workers will like to have the following list of the leaflets (which have just been revised) issued by the Institu- tion for their use. This list, together with a complete list of all litera- ture, stationery and stores for the use of Branches and Helpers, and for distribution and sale to the public will be found in Leaflet No. 10. Any of these leaflets can be ordered under the number given. Thus, Honorary Secre- taries wanting the list of sea songs have simply to ask for so many copies of " Leaflet No. 11."
