Bird-Lore's Advisory Council 



WITH some slight alterations and additions, we reprint below the 

 names and addresses of the ornithologists forming Bird-Lore's 

 'Advisory Council,' which were first published in Bird-Lore 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 diffi- 

 culties which beset the isolated worker. 



The success of the plan during the eight years that 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.
