The Academy is approaching its centenary. For nearly one
hundred years its progress has been steady and progressive and
during all that time its resources have been employed exclusively for
the intellectual advancement of mankind in connection with the work
of unselfish and devoted men. Its influence has not been local but
has been exerted wherever scientific research is cultivated. With
greatly increased resources and with improved methods of administration its honorable record will assuredly be maintained as the
years go on.
