As we go to press, negotiations are in progress between the Geological Society of Edinburgh and the Geological Society of Glasgow, which May result in the creation in 1964 of a new Scottish journal of geology combining the Transactions of both Societies and with a larger page-size, more fre­ quent publication and a wider circulation. If such a journal comes into being the present part, being the last part of Volume 19, will bring to an end the Trans. Edin. geol. Soc. in its present form.

EDITORS G. Y. CRAIG R. A. EDEN DOUGLAS GRANT The EDINBURGH GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY was founded in 1834. Fellows pay an Annual Subscription of 30s,; or a single payment of 24 guineas may be made for life, intending members are required to be nomi­ nated by two Ordinary Fellows. Further particulars may be had from the Honorary Secretary, The Edinburgh Geological Society, The Grant Institute of Geology, West Mains Road, Edinburgh, 9.

PUBLICATIONS OF THE EDINBURGH GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY Volumes 5-7 and 10-17 of the Transactions are available at a cost of 40s. per volume. Subsequent parts cost 20s. each. Certain parts of out-of-print volumes are still obtainable. A list of these parts and prices may be had on application to the publishers. Fellows can purchase back numbers of the Transactions at a dis­ count of 20 per cent. Other publications are:— 1934 History of the Edinburgh Geological Society, 2s. 6d. 1939 Facsimile, unfolded, of Necker's Geological Map of Scotland, of 1808, 5s. 1958 Geological Excursion Guide to the Assynt District of Suther­ land (with 4 coloured and 3 line geological maps), Second Edition 7s. 6d. 1960 Edinburgh Geology; An Excursion Guide (with 8 photographs, and numerous sketch maps) 12s. 6d.
