Page:Transactions NZ Institute Volume 18.djvu/9



present volume commences a new series of the "Transactions of the New Zealand Institute," in which, for convenience and economy, the size of the page has been reduced from royal to demy octavo. An alphabetical index has also been added to the volume for the first time. A General Alphabetical Index of Authors and Subjects, for the seventeen volumes which constitute the first series, has been prepared, and will be presented to all members of the Institute along with this volume.
