IN May, 1930, the Committee of Management appointed Mr. Leonard Gow, J.P., Chairman of the Glasgow Branch since 1927—and previous to that Honorary Secretary of the Branch for 16 years—a Vice-President of the Insti- tution, in recognition of the part which he had taken in the remarkable develop- ment of the Glasgow Branch, under his Chairmanship. In 1926 Glasgow con- tributed £2,391, being fourth in the list of the Institution's Branches. Each year since then there has been a notable increase, and last year Glasgow was first with a contribution of £13,519. We much regret that, through, an oversight, Mr. Gow's name was not included in the list of Vice-Presidents published in the Annual Report for 1930..
