Bird-Lore’s Advisory Council

‘ ‘ 71TH some slight alterations and additions. we reprint below the names and addresses of the ornithologists forming BIRD-Lama's ‘Advisory Council.‘ which were ﬁrst published in BIRILLORE

for February, 1900.

To those of our readers who are not familiar with the objects of the Council, we may state that it was formed for the purpose of placing students in direct communication with an authority on the bird-life of the region in which they live. to whom they might appeal for informa» tion and advice in the many diﬂiculties which beset the isolated worker.

The success of the plan during the three years which it has been in operation fully equals our expectations: and from both students and members of the Council we have had very gratifying assurances of the happy results attending our efforts to bring the specialist in touch with those who appreciate the opportunity to avail themselves of his wider experience.

It is requested that all letters of inquiry sent to members of the Council be accompanied by a stamped and addressed envelope for use in replying.

With this issue we present the second series of portraits of mem- bers of the Council, the proposed publication of which has brought us many hearty approvals from our readers.
