Bird-Lore’s Advisory Council
ITH some slight alterations and additions, we reprint below the names and addresses of the ornithologists forming ‘Advisory Council,‘ which were ﬁrst published in  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 information and advice in the many difﬁculties which beset the isolated worker,

The success of the plan during the four years which it has been in operation fully equals our expectations: and from both students and memv bers of the Council we have had very gratifying assurances of the happy results attending our eﬁorts to bring the specialist in touch with those who appreciate the opportunity to avail themselves of his wider experience. Not only do students appeal to the representative of their own State, but in planning trips to other parts of the country the advice of the resident Councilor as to the best localities for birds, etc.. is often sought.

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.
