The need of providing for the training of students is even greater in Egypt than it
is in Greece and Italy; and the relation of England to Egypt at present makes it the
more suitable that support should be given to a British School in that land. This body is
the only such agency, and is also the basis of the excavations of Prof. Flinders Petrie, who
has had many students associated with his work in past years. The great enterprise of the
excavation of the temples and city of Memphis, which has now been undertaken, promises
the most valuable results. But it will necessarily be far more costly than any other work
in Egypt, and it cannot be suitably carried out without increasing the present income of the
School. Active support is required to ensure the continuance of such work, which depends
entirely on personal contributions, and each subscriber receives the annual volume. The
antiquities not retained by the Egyptian Government are presented to Public Museums, after
the Annual Exhibition, during July, at University College. The accounts are audited by a
Chartered Accountant, and published in the Annual Report. Treasurer : H. Sefton-Jones.
