THREE-YEAR-OLD JUNIOR AUDUBON CLASS 

 The Multnomah Junior Audubon Club 



This Club was organized April 26, 191 5, with thirty-three members. We 

 have our meetings in the school grove during the good weather, and all of the 

 children take some 



part in the program. |^ '^ ~^ ^Wfc-iftBli^BMiBi^fcM.^ 



During the winter we 

 have illustrated lec- 

 tures by W. L. Finley, 

 Dr. Hodge, and others. 



Many unfortunate 

 birds that have met 

 with accident have 

 been cared for by 

 the members, and al- 

 though this is the third 

 year since our organi- 

 zation, the children are 

 still interested and did 

 good work at our 

 meetings this sum- 

 mer. 



The children are 

 very fond of going on 

 observation trips, so 

 we usually take a short 

 walk after our weekly 

 meetings. Fifty of our 

 common Oregon birds 

 have been observed 

 by most of the mem- 

 bers. 



I saw an article, asking "What becomes of the Junior Clubs after the first 

 year?" I suppose a great many of them last only one year, so I thought it 

 would be interesting to report a wide-awake three-year-old class. — Mamie

[Miss Campbell is the enthusiastic leader of this active Junior Audubon Society. 

 It is pleasant to receive such an encouraging report, for many Junior Societies disband 

 after a year's organization. If more could keep up club-work together, it would be a 

 great advantage to any school or community in which such societies are located. —
