Bird-Lore's Advisory Council 



WITH some slij^fht alterations, we reprint l)elo\v the names and addresses 

 of the ornithologists forming Bird-Lore's 'Advisor>^ 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 

 difficulties which beset the isolated worker. 



The success of the plan during the ten years that it has been in operation 

 fully equals our expectations; and from both students and members of the 

 Council we have had very gratif)ang assurances of the happy results attending 

 our etTorts to bring the specialist in touch with those who appreciate the oppor- 

 tunity to avail themselves of his wider experience. 



It is requested that all letters of inquiry and to members of the Council be 

 accompanied by a stamped and addressed envelope for use in replying.
