Zbe jForeion Bir^ Club. 



NOTICES TO MEMBERS. 



MR. W. P. Pycraft has been elected by the Council to fill the 

 vacancy in their body caused by the resignation of 

 Dr. Hopkiiison. He has kindly undertaken to assist 

 iiieiii])ers in the identification of species— thus continuing Dr. 

 Hopkinson's work. All queries on this subject should be 

 addressed to Mr. PycraFT at the British Museum (Nat. Hist.), 

 Cromwell Road, S.W. I feel sure that the nietnbers will highly 

 appreciate the privilege of being able to consult an ornitholo- 

 gist of repute. 



It is to be regretted that "The Bird Market " is not taken 

 advantage of to a }j;reater extent. Bird Notes has a circula- 

 tion of over 400 copies per month, and this circulation is 

 entirely among lovers of foreign and British birds, so that it 

 should be an excellent medium for the disposal of surplus 

 stock. Oddly enough, "The Bird Market" is less patronised 

 now than is was nearly two years ago, when the circulation was 

 very much smaller. Will members al.so bear in mind the fact 

 that by sending their advertisements to our pages they will be 

 helping the finajices of the Club } 



Meetings of the Council, and of the members, will be held 

 at the Crystal Palace on Tuesday the 8th Debember. Place 

 and times of meetings will be announced by notice on the 

 Sales Ofiice. Matters of great importance to the Club will 

 be discussed.
