Uring the past year the shadow of the Great War has rested upon us all. To some it has meant bereavement, to others financial loss and anxiety, to everyone constant pre - occupation. The Victoria Institute could not h0pe to escape. Some of its supporters have found themselves obliged to diminish their subscriptions or even to withdraw them altogether.

Nevertheless, in spite of these and other hindrances, the record of the past Session is most encouraging. The removal to new quarters has resulted in a great advantage, and the rooms in the Central Hall, Westminster, available for our Meetings, have proved much more comfortable and commodious than the premises which we formerly occupied.

Thirteen Meetings were held during the Session instead of the usual twelve, and all of them have been well attended, some of them exceptionally so.
